Everything seems to be working fine now. Thanks a million. Just to rap this up, I'll restate the correct sequences that have appeared in half a dozen or so messages over the last week. WINDOW STATUS REQUEST sequence in the RKM is wrong. The correct sequence is: $9B $30 $20 $71 WINDOW BOUNDRY REPORT sequence in the RKM is *almost* correct. The RKM omits the fact that there is a space ($20) between the window width parameter and the terminating 'r' charactor. DEVICE STATUS REQUEST sequence in the RKM is missing a byte. The correct sequence is: $9B $36 $6E CURSOR POSITION REPORT (hard as it is to believe) is described correctly in the RKM.

BTW, all these sequences are correct in the Addison Wesley RKMs — see pp. 281 – 290 of the "Libraries and Devices" volume.

Just saw this thread and butted in, as a point of info, those things (the cursor position report, et. al) are all ANSI X3.64 codes that do those things on other terminals, I just happened to recognize them flipping through the message base here. The only difference I see is that you are saying they start with $9B and I usually see it in the ANSI manual as $1B or the ESC character, just a matter of the high order bit being on though so its probably irrelevant. Its interesting to see that amy is so close to the ansi thing though, I really wasn't aware it would do that. Bye
