Warp 3.0
How to enable
keyboard in
the
C option


Andei com um sério problema no Warp 3.0: não conseguia habilitar a barra invertida ( \ ) no meu teclado ergonométrico Microsoft Enhanced de 101 teclas e mais algumas quando na opção C (linha da de comando) de Tela Azul do Alt+F1. Eu já estava ficando desanimado quando resolvi apelar para o Forum do Supersite de OS/2 (http://www.os2ss.com) e fui rapidamente ajudado por um dos participantes, Al Carmon.

When you use the C option, make your config.sys is set correctly for the keyboard and screen. Be aware that in this command session, you are not, not, not using your regular config.sys file. You are using the old, original config file (config.org?).
The setup for the screen choices is shown in the \OS2\BOOT directory in 3 files:

ALT1TOP.SCR (THE ONE YOU WANT TO LOOK AT)
ALT1MID.SCR
ALT1BOT.SCR

When you figure out which config file the command session is using, these are the important screen and keyboard entries you want to see (assuming Warp is on your c: drive):

COUNTRY=001,C:\OS2\SYSTEM\COUNTRY.SYS
CODEPAGE=437,850
DEVINFO=KBD,US,C:\OS2\KEYBOARD.DCP
DEVINFO=SCR,VGA,C:\OS2\BOOT\VIOTBL.DCP
SET VIDEO_DEVICES=VIO_VGA
SET VIO_VGA=DEVICE(BVHVGA)

Hope this helps.
