Operating Systems HP-UX Caps lock dtterm

Ok, found the solution. The HP-UX Xlib does not support the XKEYBOARD extension (xdpyinfo). This results in abnormal behavior with caps lock and shift keys. The solution is to set the environment variable:

export XKB_DISABLE=1

and the problems go away. Smilie

Thanks,

dtcreateterm

DtCreateTerm(library call)												DtCreateTerm(library call)

NAME

       DtCreateTerm -- create a DtTerm widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Dt/Term.h>
       Widget DtCreateTerm(
       Widget parent,
       String name,
       ArgList arglist,
       Cardinal argcount);

DESCRIPTION

       The DtCreateTerm function creates a terminal emulator widget hierarchy.

       The parent argument specifies the parent widget ID.

       The name argument specifies the name of the created widget.

       The arglist argument specifies the argument list.

       The argcount argument specifies the number of attribute and value pairs in the argument list (arglist).

       The DtTerm widget provides the core set of functionality needed to emulate an ANSI X3.64-1979- and ISO 6429:1992(E)-style terminal, such as
       the DEC VT220.  This functionality includes text rendering, scrolling, margin and tab support, escape sequence parsing  and  the  low-level
       OS-specific interface required to allocate and configure a pty or STREAMS pseudo-terminal device and write the system's utmp device.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the DtCreateTerm function returns the DtTerm widget ID.
