In D3 using Telnet how do you send a <Ctrl>-Break when your keyboard doesn’t have a Break key?

Using ACCUTERM how do you send a <Ctrl>-break when your keyboard doesn’t have a break key?

Hi Roger,

You can use the “SET-BREAK” command from TCL to report or change the value of the Break key on D3.

If you’re looking to interrupt and debug a Flash/BASIC program, then you should also set “BRK-DEBUG” to invoke the Basic Debugger, opposed to pushing a level at TCL.

Hope that helps.

Mike,

Thanks for your response.  I was able to use the “SET-BREAK” to enable sending a break.

I changed my user record from “brk-level” to “brk-debug” and now it is working.  Thanks!
