Make ISO-8859-1 chars in terminal application
Asked by
Peter Jennett
I would like to be able to create the extended chars that are available to users of MS windows and most terminal emulator applications. In these applications the keypad can be used to enter the decimal value of the character.
I have enabled the ISO-8859-1 chars in terminal and I am now able to display the chars that I want which are the french accented chars. This I can do using echo both in "bash" shell in terminal and telneting to another host.
What I am unable to do is to issue the characters using the keyboard.
I am sure there is a method in "terminal" of generating codes above ascii 128 0x7Fh 0o177 but I do not seem to be able to find this in the help.
Regards
Peter Jennett
