Re: Interrupt key in Dynamic-4GL

I set my interrupt to Control-C, so that now that I type stty -a, I get intr = ^C. I commented the following lines #gui.useOOB.interrupt=0 #fglrun.signalOOB=21 #gui.key.interrupt= "Delete" so default of Control-C will be used. I'm running the client piece on a Windows 95. Now, when I start the WTK session, i get a telnet session in which I log in. I have FGLSERVER and FGLGUI set and then I start my application. Another window is started, so I have 2 windows running at once. Now, I'ms not sure if this is normal behavior. The control-C still does not work. However, if I switch to the initial window in which I logged in and initiated the application and press Control-C on that window it works. I've read somewhere I think in manual or release notes that you need to change this when running SCO Openserver. I'll play with it some more. Plus, when changing the interrupt key, I checked that Delete or CTRL-C did generate an interrupt. Candy -- Candy McCall ONLINE Computing, Inc. (candym@olcinc.com) >Oh?
