I can't answer your question of how to get special characters with the program
Commodore sells, but they are available on the VT-52 terminal emulation pro-
gram.  It is not public domain, but the author is letting net users have a free
copy.  It allows you to do full screen stuff like vi, more, rogue, etc.  If you
want a copy, send a disk along with a self addressed stamped mailer to:

A. Ray Miller
Daniels Hall #494
1010 W. Green St.
Urbana, IL 61801

You also need to set your account up properly.  Put something like this in your
.cshrc file:
alias c64 "setenv TERMCAP /mntb/1/lawrie/miller/.c64;setenv TERM c64;set term = c64;stty -tabs"

Put this in file .c64:
#
# The following entry provides for destructive
# backspace for the "terminal5" software for c64,
# VT-52 type cursor motion, reverse scroll,
# and codes for use of the cursor control keys:
#
qc|c64|C64|Commodore 64:co#40:li#25:\
	:up=\EA:am:ho=\EH:\
	:nd=\EC:so=\EO:se=\EN:ce=\EK:\
        :cd=\EJ:sr=\EI:bc=\ED:\
        :cl=\EH\EJ:cm=\EY%+ %+ :\
        :ku=^B:kd=^P:kr=^T:kl=^E:

This is (absolutely positively) the last time I'm mentioning this program on
the net.  "Side affects" of the notes take up too much time, e.g., the last
time I made this offer I got *several dozen* disks in the mail.  Also, I just
joined into a scientific creationism discussion on net.misc.  Research for
responses on that will no doubt take some time also.

By the way, we haven't gotten hardly any notes on net.* for several days now.
Is anyone else having the same problem?
