AREV Specific

Using Arev 1.16, trying to find the Ascii value for the Ctrl-N keystroke. Any suggestions on where I could find a complete table of the keystrokes.

Thanks,

Mark

Not sure where to find a table of keystrokes. Try this program…
PRINT @(-1):
LOOP
  PRINT 'Enter a character. ':
  INPUT REPLY
UNTIL REPLY EQ '' DO
  SEQ=SEQ(REPLY1,1)
  MESSAGE=Value=:SEQ
  CALL MSG(MESSAGE)
REPEAT
STOP
END

It will report most keystrokes.

Thanks for the help, the problem I was having was what Char(?) is before Char(14) to give you Ctrl-N, for the Alt key it is Char(0) for Ctrl it is Char(254).

Thanks Again

Richard's routine will not detect keystrokes that return two bytes. Better would be something like this:

STOPCHAR=CHAR(27)

LOOP

INPUT CHARACTER,-1

UNTIL CHARACTER=STOPCHAR

OUTPUT='

FOR POS=1 TO LEN(CHARACTER)
 OUTPUT := SEQ(CHARACTERPOS,1):' '
NEXT

REPEAT

CALL MSG(OUTPUT)

The code for CTRL characters are only a single digit and match the ordinal number of its position in the alphabet, i.e., 'A'=char(1), 'B'=char(2), 'C'=char(3), etc. If the code is more than one digit, the first digit is char(0). I hope this helps.
