  • fseditor doesn't work for PETSCII users

    From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Wed Apr 2 12:21:19 2025
    open https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues/898

    The quoted-text and keyboard input characters need translation

    Many of the keys displayed with Ctrl-K either don't work or do something different (e.g. can't use Ctrl-Q to quit).

    Presumably, console.ctrlkey_passthru just needs to be set to `"+@ABCEFGHIJKLMNPQRSTUVWYZ\]^_"` instead of the current `"+ACGKLNPQRTUVWXYZ_"`?

    Ah, I see, ctrlkey_passthru is tied to the ANSI-specific key remapping, and CTRL-Q is down arrow.

    Yeah, it just won't work with PETSCII. Likely best to whip up a different editor specifically for PETSCII.
