Steve Brown said Subject: PROGRAMMABLE KEYBOARDS When we had dumb terminals the keyboards were programmable so that various keys could be programmed to put in various text at a stroke, codes, details of standard instructions, & a message into the internal mail saying coffee, two biscuits, two paracetamol& no extras!! now we use pc's as terminal emulators & miss this function. Someone told me the other day that you can buy programmable keyboards for pc's. Has anyone used these, are they generally available? Gateway do a programmable keyboard which works. Also ICETEN terminal emulation program has a facility of programmable buttons (up to 30) which is great for data entry in that POMR program (how can anyone work any other way!) Meditel.
