Display Form Feeds

Factory default: Selected

When selected, this will cause form feeds to be represented on the display as

F

F

characters.

Ignore Form Feeds

Factory default: Unselected

When the emulator receives a form feed command from the host it normally results in
a line feed on the display in HP 700/92 mode. Selecting this option will cause the
emulator to ignore all form feed commands received from the host.

Return Def

Factory default: ^M (i.e. CR)

This enables you to define the function of the Return key. Up to two characters may
be used to define the key. If a second character is a space, it will be ignored.

To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text box and
type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value
of the ASCII character.

For example, the default code for the Return key function, CR (carriage return), can
be entered by typing the characters ^ and M, representing the keys Ctrl + M which,
when pressed together would generate the CR code.

Decimal values are entered as three-digit numbers immediately preceded by an
underscore character. Values with only two digits must be preceded by a zero. For
example, the decimal value of CR is 13, so this would be entered as _013. Refer to the
ASCII character table in the Character Sets appendix for code and decimal references.

Start Column

Factory default: 1

This text box is used to specify the start column for transmitted data when no logical
start-of-text pointer is present and the Return or Enter keys are pressed in Modify
Line
or Modify All mode.

Usually a start-of-text pointer is automatically generated to designate the leftmost
character in the current line if it is the last line of data in display memory. This pointer
will remain in display memory until the line is deleted. If the line has no start-of-text
pointer, data transmission will begin at the start column specified by this option. The
column range is from 1 to 80 inclusive.

Note: The setting of this option may be temporarily redefined using

one of the Margin/Tab/Col function keys. See the HP700/92
Emulation chapter for details.
