At some time ago Roeoender has create a enter.com file, whit that we could emulate a enter key, and some dos characters, in the same way it?s possible to create one to let us use small fonts, and not only capital fonts?

For example if we press only the ALPHA key, we get the Capital fonts, but the combination of ALPHA and SHIFT keys let?s us use the small fonts?..

And in the same way whit some simple combinations we could use other?s nom available fonts.

This could be very helpful?..

I already thought about this some time ago but I think it is NOT possible.

The reason is the folowing:

The Casio BASIC editor does not catch the characters but they keycodes and of the keyboard and changes them to the apropriate characters. It would not handle any lower-case codes since they simply do not exist on the (A)FX series.

The only reason it works on the command line is since the command.com expects a "real" keyboard to be attached and handles the "real" keycodes of such a keyboard. The program is not aware that it is executed on a calculator but the Casio BASIC editor in contrary is.

So basicly what you ask for is impossible.

I also had the idea some time ago (in context with using the editor for MLC2) but after thinking about it for some time I came to this conclusion.
