Subject: keys under dosemu
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2009 21:55:17 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0KDL00HF0HFWAUC1@vms173003.mailsrvcs.net> (raw)
Trying to switch over from OS/2 to Ubuntu via this neat little eeePC. My primary
word processor is XyWrite, which runs fairly well under Dosemu for the most part.
* In WyWrite I am used to using Alt-Backspace (to delete the previous word) -- for
so long, it's now second nature. Searching "dosemu alt-backspace" keeps yielding
references to "ctrl-alt-backspace" which isn't what I want. Finally I found that
someone says "Alt-Backspace and Ctrl-Insert... are not available for the BIOS (at
least in DOSemu!)" Is this true, and if so, is there any chance a future DOSemu (or
Freedos) will overcome this?
* I'd also like to remap some of the default Linux/Dosemu keys -- for example,
Alt-F2 is very useful in Ubuntu for running a command, but while in Dosemu I'd
prefer to let XyWrite handle it. Is this possible?
