Re: [coLinux-users] some details about copy/paste "."

A simple question for all colinux users ....
If you use console-nt, does BLOCKNUM work ?
If I press BLOCKNUM and I use the the keys

0-9 * - + - ENTER .

of numeric keypad, it does not work. Colinux does not change the BLOCKNUM state-
I use a keyboard with italian layout.

I need only to know if it is only my problem or is generic problem.

Thanks for reply

Paolo

I have changed a line into colinux code to manage BLOCKNUM .
Doing so, for me works.
It seems a bug of windows console API.

Let me know if it is only my problem or generic, so we can patch it.

Thanks.
Paolo

On German Windows does not woorking. NUMLOCK on or off does not sense,
all I get on Linux prompt for keys 0-9 is:

^[[2~^[[4~^[[B^[[6~^[[D^[[G^[[C^[[1~^[[A^[[5~

You are right the NUMLOCK is always seen as "off" for coLinux. I have
opened mc Midnight Commander and I can move the cursor with keys NUM-8
and NUM-2 up and down. Key NUM-Lock toggles the NUM-lock LED, but has no
effect for key bindings. Cursor goes up and down in both states of
NUN-LED on and off.
