.Refer to chapter 13 in the FastTerm manaul for a full description of these
.patch items
.
.This is an example FIX file for changing various items in FastTerm
.for your own personalized version. When you change any of these items
.apply this patch file ONLY on a backup copy of FastTerm. NEVER on the
.original. Please never upload (send) your copy to a network system or
.BBS system when others could download it. They may not appreciate your
.changes and it could result in them choosing not to support the
.shareware concept. Thank you.

.The table for xlate starts at rec# 0, offset 1FH. Take the character
.you want to make out (ASCII value less than 32), and add it to 1FH to
.get the actual location of the character in the table. I suggest that
.unless you know exactly what you want to do here, its sometimes better
.off not doing anything. If you are a registered user and want to change
.a value in the table, write to me, or call my BBS and I'll give you the
.exact patch you require (if possible).

.
. As an added note, the remaining patch lines are for version 10R6 and
. newer versions.
.
.To use them, remove the period from the lines you need.
.
.This first patch changes the CTRL character from a ^ to whatever you
.want to use in its place. I suggest a | (CLEAR SHIFT /) if need be.
.
.D00,41=7C
.F00,41=5B
.
.Some people have the need to send a CTRL K at times, and this conflicts
.with the UP ARROW to invoke video scroll back mode. Hence, if this is
.required by you, I suggest you use the following patch lines. They will
.change it from UP ARROW to SHIFT UP ARROW (not hard to remember).
.
.D00,42=1B
.F00,42=0B
.
.If you apply any of these patches, PLEASE do not upload your hacked version
.to any BBS or network. Instead use the orginal which you downloaded (or
.received as a supporter). The reason is simple, I would like the program to
.at least agree with the manual. Your cooperation is appreciated.
.
. For versions R11 and on, you may now have a sort of MENU SELECT window
.instead of try to remember all the terminal mode command keys. To enable
./disable it, use the [SHIFT F3] keys. Once done, press the [F1] and
.depending on the mode you are in, you will either get the normal window
.selected or your will get the MENU SELECTION WINDOW. In this new window you
.can readily select all the TERMINAL COMMAND KEYS in FastTerm, plus the
.various windows supported. All supported commands are shown.
.
.The F1 key is still used to either invoke the regular window mode, or new
.window mode. If you prefer to use a different key or value, you may patch
.the FastTerm program with the value you want to use. I suggest leaving it
.at 81H (the F1 key value), but if it must be changed, use the following line :
.
.D00,43=xx
.F00,43=81
.
.where the xx=the HEX value of the key you want to use.
.If you do modify the program, PLEASE do not upload it or share it with anyone
.since they may not appreciate the patches you have made and it may result in
.them not liking the program enough to support it. The more support received
.the more program features you can expect.
