Appendix A70
HP-UX terminal does not support drawing menus and
dialog boxes, it can still use the menu interface, but the
menus and dialog boxes will be drawn with characters
such as - and + instead of solid lines.
The TN3270 program with the international option
uses the ISO 8859 character set instead of the PC
character set. In this case, whether you can display the
box drawing characters depends on your version of
HP-UX and its curses library. You may be able to use
them by modifying the acsc mapping, or you may have
to remove the acsc mapping and use the - and +
characters.
F2. . . F12 function keys: kf2 . . . kf12
Used in TN3270 emulation to represent the 3270 keys
PF2 to PF12. Some of these keys are also used as
accelerators in the menu interface to provide a
“short-cut” to certain dialogs or functions. If you do not
have these keys, you can remap the 3270 keys to
different keystrokes. The accelerator keys cannot be
remapped, but it is possible to reach the same dialogs
or functions by using the main screen menus.
Left and Right arrow keys: kcub1 and kcuf1
Used for moving within edit boxes and for selecting
buttons from radio groups. If you do not have these
keys, you can replace text in edit boxes instead of
modifying it, and you can use the Up and Down arrow
keys or accelerator keys to select buttons from radio
groups.
PageUp: kpp or ka3 and PageDown: knp or kc3
Used to move quickly within a listbox. The Up and
Down arrow keys can be used instead, but are slower.
Either of the termcap names can be used.
Home: ka1 or khome and End: kc1
Used to move quickly to the first or last entry in a
listbox. The Up and Down arrow keys or PageUp and
PageDown can be used instead, but are slower.
Backtab: kcbt
