ARPUS/ce, Version 2.6.2 (03/10/05) (SCCS 1.4) _______________________________________________________________________________ eef [-a <hexchar>] "edit end-of-file" DESCRIPTION: "eef" is the command one would use to send an end-of-file signal to a ceterm shell. This is analogous to typing ctrl-d in a shell. This command is a no-op in a non-ceterm window. PARAMETERS: -a <hexchar> This option sends the character hexchar to the shell as the eof character. <hexchar> can be any character valid in an er (enter raw) command. This includes two digit hex codes, such as 0C or A3, control constructs such as ^c or ^d, and C type escaped characters, such as \t and \r. For example, dq -a ^d forces dq to send the hex 04 character as the eof character to the shell. This feature is useful on some platforms when using telnet. By default eef queries the shells line discipline to get the interrupt character and sends this character. Because multiple line disciplines are involved in telnet, the wrong character is sometimes returned. Since EOF is almost always ^d (see stty(1V)) this can be compensated for with the -a parameter. The normal way to use "eef" is to have the following key definition in your key definitions file: kd ^d eef ke This is in fact the definition that is supplied in the default key definition files when you installed ARPUS/ce.
