All of these are for the 2622, 2623 and 2624. K24 makes the function keys, ESC, BS, TAB, Back TAB, DEL, CAPS, CTRL, r Shift, l Shift, ENTER and TAB and back TAB on the keypad, definable as any of the functions in that set or a sequence of four characters. NULL is also selectable.K45 does inals Division will not do a retrofit on older 2622s and 2623s because it requires adding a wire to the PC board, but maybe I can give out this information if enough people are interested in retrofitting their terminals. It would require ordering the ROM's from standard HP sources, and I could give out the instructions and copy EPROMs for you. It takes four new ROM's and an EPROM. 2624B's can be retrofited. Rumors: They are doing a 2623 that is ANSI compatible (most of the VT100 functions, but not large characters) for alpha-numerics and control functions and is Tektronix compatible for graphic functions. This is a special that is in the works. A color graphics 262x and 264x will be released this summer, maybe. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
