Novaterm 9.6 User's Guide
While using terminal mode, a variety of functions are available to you
by pressing logo key combinations. The terminal mode key
commands are summarized below. A key described as C= X means
you should hold down the Commodore logo key while pressing the
letter X.
NOTE: Many of the descriptions below refer to features covered in
later sections of the manual. If you read something that doesn't make
sense to you, follow the reference to learn more about it.
3.1.3 Commodore Key Commands
C= A - Toggles ASCII translation. This command determines
whether incoming data should be translated from ASCII to PETSCII
for proper display on the C64. This should always be on unless you
are connected to a Commodore color/graphics BBS. This command
works only with the "Standard" terminal emulations, as the others
require translation to remain on to function properly (see 3.1.1,
Terminal emulations).
C= B - Pause/resume buffer capture. This is only valid when a
buffer capture file has been opened using C= O. Pressing C= B stops
text capture while leaving the capture file open. The highlighted B in
the status line rurns off, indicating tht text is no longer being
captured. Pressing C= B again resumes text capture and highlights the
B.
C= C - Toggle between 40 and 80 columns (see 3.1.6, Notes on 80-
column mode). This command works only with the Standard
terminal emulations, as the others require the 80-column display to
function (see 3.1.1, Terminal emulations).
C= D - Download a file. (see 3.4.5, Receiving a file).
C= E - Toggle local echo. When local echo is on, everything you
type is sent to the screen as well as to the modem. This setting is
indicated by the letter E in the status line. Local echo should be
turned on if you are connected to a computer or bulletin board which
does not echo back characters. Most bulletin boards echo characters
but if you are connected directly to another terminal (if, say, you and a
friend were linked up to exchange files) and you can't see what you
are typing, you should turn local echo on.
C= F - Display the amount of free disk space.
C= G - Execute a script file. (See section 6, Scripts.)
