Subject: Re: [9fans] kbdputc() in devcons.c in 9front?
Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2014 09:39:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <97b8c27495a8ebca030bd23bbf5f47e8@felloff.net> (raw)

the problem is that rio reads /dev/kbd instead of
/dev/cons which in addition provides key press
and release events. so translating /dev/cons has
no effect on rio. (rio reads and multiplexes
/dev/kbd file)
/dev/kbd is used by:
games/doom, games/nes, games/snes, games/md
and vnc.
changing ktrans to translate /dev/kbd format
instead of /dev/cons should not be hard. i can
do that when i get back from my day job.
kbdfs removes some code duplication like the
latin1 composing. vncs in 9front just runs another
instance of kbdfs to provide cons and kbd files
instead of reimplementing the kernels console code.
kbdfs also lets you interrupt programs on the
plan9 console.
