5934.0. "Numeric Keypad and arrows moving the cursor" by VAXRIO::CONT_RENATO (R.Mendes@CIMsolutions Brasil) Tue Mar 04 1997 12:26

    This must be very basic, but here I go...
    
    How can I, using VXT's and OpenVMS, can easily toggle between
    the NumericKeypad and AppKeypad ? Also, I know that using 
    SHIFT+CTRL+F3 makes the arrow moves the pointer, but am I 
    able to change the speed of the moving pointer ?
    
    
    TO finish, how may I set up the VXT to boot having the 
    numeric keypad and making the arrows moving the cursor by default.
    
    Thanks in advance.

Make sure you've selected Numeric Keypad in the General Options dialog box (assuming this option exists on the VXT) and change it and do a Save Options if it isn't set correctly.

You can use the SET TERMINAL/APPLICATION_KEYPAD and SET TERMINAL/NUMERIC_KEYPAD 
commands from DCL.  I'm not sure about the VXT, but in OpenVMS DECterm you
can also control this in the General Options dialog box.

I don't think you can customize this on an OpenVMS workstation.  I'm not
sure about the VXT.

I thought this was the default.  Make sure you've selected Numeric Keypad
in the General Options dialog box (assuming this option exists on the VXT)
and change it and do a Save Options if it isn't set correctly.  You might
also need to add a SET TERMINAL/NUMERIC_KEYPAD to your LOGIN.COM.

I don't know how you can make that the default.
