 Re: Where's the Esc key in VICE?

Workaround works, but most of us use the YAPE emulator by Atilla Grosz: http://yape.homeserver.hu/ wink

I don't know of a more accurate C128 emulator, though.

 Re: Where's the Esc key in VICE?

I'd compiled plus4emu even at Raspberry Pi... Just install all required packages and follow the instruction at README. I have VICE 2.4 installed, the key below Esc (it is ~') is the Escape key for Commodore. However VICE +4 emulation is poor in many cases.

KEY 1, CHR$(27)

Workaround happy

 Re: Where's the Esc key in VICE?

Thanks -- that does work, although only after switching both the desktop and VICE to a US keyboard layout. As a consequence, characters like *, : or ^ are neither where I'd expect them on a German nor on a US keyboard *moan!* :3

(Any idea how to make it friendlier to German keyboards?)

On Windows, it's the tilde/grave accent key (~/'), it's right under the real ESC. I can't check if it's the same on Linux, but you can give it a try. An easy way to test is to press that key, then "n", which should clear the screen.

 Where's the Esc key in VICE?

Which physical key works as the emulated plus/4's or 128's Esc key in VICE? The "real" Esc key works as Run/Stop, and nothing else I press seems to "do" Esc. I can't make much sense of the keymap files.

There might be better emulators, but I've failed miserably trying to compile Yape and Plus4Emu, even after tracking down the dependencies (Linux user here)
