The option to control the translation is the xlt option and the argument should be the reference number indicated in the above
table.
>textcons speed 50 xlt 1
This enables TEXCONS at a sampling rate of 50 ms and performs translation as if the input keyboard being used has a British
keyboard layout.
Configuring Remote Console Hot-Keys
In order to allow additional special key sequences that cannot be duplicated by the remote console client, either due to a telnet
/ SSH limitation or due to the client OS intercepting the keyboard sequence and processing the special key sequence itself, the
Remote Console Hot-Keys configured for Remote Console will operate in TEXCONS.
These could include items such as
Linux ‗magic' SysRq key support
X windows CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE support
or simply short-cut for complex key sequences
Control Character Mapping
In general, under the ASCII character set, CONTROL (All ASCII characters below Code 32) characters are not printable
(cannot be displayed). In the IBM codepage 437, these characters are printable as various ‗special' characters. These
characters may be used to represent arrows, stars, circles, and so forth. In order to operate successfully on the majority of
clients (that do not display codepage 437 characters), some of these characters are mapped to equivalent ASCII
representations.
