1 Configuration Command Notes
AT
This feature must
be
off
(AT=
F)
for iRMX-based systems due to current
iRMX internal requirements.
Setting
AT=
F directs AEDIT-86 not to
support type-ahead. Because
the
iRMX
operating system performs type-
ahead, setting this function off does not affect the user.
AB
AFCC
When
AT
is
off
(AT
= F), the
AFCC
function
is
not fully functional. The
synonym works only for synchronous operations (e.g.,
to
terminate
INSERT
mode), but not for asynchronous operations (e.g., exit from a
loop within a macro).
The natural choice
is
ESC
(I
BH). However, this value cannot be used if
other terminal input functions begin with ESC (e.g.,
VTIO).
AFCC is not fully functional if
AT
is
off
(AT=
F). See notes
on
AT above.

Configuration Values
The
hardware identification command
AH
may have several different values, e.g., a
null string, the string
S3E, the string S4. An AH command value implies a complete
set
of
values for the entire configuration command set. Table 9-2 contains the default
configuration commands with values for various terminals or systems.
