    Hi,

    I'm running the Csh v5.50a and tried again the new muicon/powerterm, but several cursor movement keys like shift/alt/ctrl-left/right doesn't work anymore.

    The last version where this works in Csh is muicon-handler v50.21 and PowerTerm.mcc v50.55.

    Could this be fixed in muicon/powerterm? Or should Csh be fixed?

    BTW: Anyone here who ported Csh v5.50a?

    here it is http://www.aminet.net/util/shell/csh550a.lha
    and here is the source http://www.aminet.net/util/shell/csh550src.lha

    The qualifier keys for cursor left/right/up/down seems to not working anymore.
    Cursor left/right is working to move the cursor one char to the left/right.
    But f.e. shift+left/right isn't working to move the cursor to the prev/next word, it simply does nothing.

    I use Csh because of its internal commands and scripting feature.

    I once tried to port the source, and was able to produce a halfway working binary, but there were some input/output redirecting issues, if I remember well...

    I find that when I close a shell I often get

    Work:> Process 6 ending

    and further clicking the close window gadget only
    results in iconification of the window.

    This also happened with the previous version.
    Anyone else get that ?

    Also, in MUI prefs there is no graphic next to Power Term
    in the column on the left, only a "?". No failures in Snoopium.

    Ok, I will have a look in the next few days and keep you posted.

    Speaking of shells, you might want to have a look at Morgoth's ksh port. Get it from http://tbs-software.com/morgoth/files/pdksh-5.2.14.tar.bz2

    Ok, first of all, I have no idea what's wrong with your setup. Can you check if there's anything in the log? It would be good if you could contact me on irc (freenode, nick jacaDcaps) so that we could discuss this.

    As for the missing logo: I simply didn't want to bother with this. Will have a look at some point though ;)

    @jacadcaps

    Will try to catch you on IRC.

    In the mean time, Snoopium doesn't report any fails.
    Can you tell me where to find the log ?

    Thanks

    Snoopium reports nothing, cause the logos for custom classes are not disk-based.

    As for the log: use logtool from my page.

    Hi

    I just sent you a PM with the output from logtool when experiencing this problem.

    I hope it helps you find the reason.

    thanks

    OK, igracki. There seems to be a difference in the key>escape conversion between standard AmigaOS console and PowerTerm's "MorphOS Console" emulator. Will fix that and make an update in a day or two.

    Found 5 differences in the rawkey->output translation. New PowerTerm uploaded (in the muicon.lha). Tell me if anything else needs to be fixed.

    Shift+Cursor movement now works!

    But I forgot to mention that I get a "Please insert volume con:" requester at startup;-)
    I have to press the "Mount" button, before a con-window can be opened!

    This obviously didn't occured before, with v50.55 of powerterm.mcc and v50.37 of muicon-hanlder.

    And there is no text visible in the menus!

    I installed the new powerterm.mcc/mcp and the new muicon-handler, nothing else, I have no powerterm/muicon catalog installed, so I should see the english strings in the menus.

    Are you sure CON: is not unmounted twice on your system? Such symptoms (menu thingie) usually show up if you unmount muicon and keep using it. That would also explain the "please insert" requester. Just checked and I'm using exactly the same binary that is on binaryriot

    I just launched syscon:, typed 'assign CON: remove dismount' and launched a normal shell from ambient. I got the "Please insert" requester, clicked Mount and the strings were gone indeed. So... go check your startup files :)

    Hope this helps
