RM/COBOL: configuration file 2

[on5ex]

Hello.
I need to redefine the . key (numeric keypad) into , . Guess this should be done by
TERM-INPUT 44 {input character equivalent}
Which character sequence should be used for the numpad . key?
Any help much appreciated!
Regards.

This is explained in the Configuration chapter of the version 7.5 user guide.

I am not an expert in this area, but in general I would think in terms of:

TERM-INPUT DATA=44   NKP.

This is one of many enhancements in version 7.5. See:

Try using the virtual key mappings that are available in 7.50. This configuration works for me.
