Hangul DECterm is a VT382-K terminal emulator. This section describes the Korean features which are specific to Hangul DECterm. For the details about the common internationalized features provided by DECterm, see DECwindows Motif Internationalization Guide.
This chapter describes the Hangul DECterm in the following areas:
The terminal type that DECterm will emulate is sensitive to the session language.
To create a Hangul DECterm through Session Manager, you can set the session language to one of the Korean locales, and then select DECterm from the Applications menu of Session Manager.
The user interface language of Hangul DECterm always follows the terminal type. The language is independent of the language selection.
You may apply to your Hangul DECterm windows any of the customization features that are currently applicable to the ISO Latin-1 DECterm window except for the customization of the NRCS character sets.
Customized features can be saved and restored in the same way as in ISO Latin-1 DECterm.
You can choose the 24x24 or 16x18 Korean fonts by selecting Big Font or Little Font from the Window... item of the Options menu selection box.
Choosing the General... item from the Options menu allows you to change the general features, such as the terminal type, for the Hangul DECterm from the dialog box displayed. You can also choose VT382 ID from the dialog box.
Choosing the Input Method... item from the Options menu allows you to select the interaction style for Hangul DECterm. For example, to select the Root Window interaction style, click on the Root Window button and then apply the change. If you click on the ISO Latin-1 Input button, Hangul DECterm disables the input of Korean data until another style is selected.
Choosing the Input Method... item from the Options menu allows you to switch to use another input server for Hangul DECterm. By default, the DECW$IM input server is used. To select another input server, click on the Other button and enter the input server name in the input field.
You can use the Edit menu to copy information within or between DECterm windows. The cut-and-paste operation is enhanced to handle mixed ASCII and Korean characters.
Korean DECterm supports KS C 5601 and all character sets supported by the ISO Latin-1 DECterm.
ISO Latin-1 DECterm uses the ISO 8859-1 character set as the default character set. You can change the default by choosing other options from the General... pull-down menu on the Options menu. For Hangul DECterm, the default character set is KS C 5601.
In general, Hangul DECterm cannot display mixed MCS (or ISO Latin-1 Supplemental Graphic Characters) and Hangul characters. To achieve this function, you can output the data together with the designated character set escape sequences.
You can enter Korean characters in Hangul DECterm by invoking any of the Korean input modes as described in Chapter 6. Mixed ASCII and Korean characters can be displayed properly in Hangul DECterm without any special settings.
The DECW$IM input server provides the Hangul character input capability. If this process does not exist or terminates for some reason, the following message is displayed:
Hangul input method does not exist
You can restart the input server and use the Reset Terminal option from the Commands menu to reconnect the Hangul DECterm to the input server.
The following VT382-K functionality is implemented in the Hangul DECterm terminal emulator:
