Re: [Tlf-devel] noob question- tlf sound files

[Andy Summers]

Hi Jim,

The VKM paths should be in the rules file, not the logcfg.dat file, but 
the text you copied is from a rules file, so you should be OK. You'll 
need to remove erroneous text, such as "(examples...)", but otherwise 
you have it correct.

It looks like you might be using an older version of TLF because VKSPR 
and VKCWR are now VKSPM and VKCQM respectively. I recommend you get the 
latest version and look at README.ssb in the doc directory.

I use Fedora, but I presume the Gnome terminal will be the same. In your 
terminal, go to the menu and select Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Click on 
shortcut key F1 and hit backspace. It should now display 'Disabled'. 
Repeat for F11. Also, uncheck the two checkboxes at the top of the 
Keyboard Shortcut form. A better colour scheme can be obtained via Edit 
-> Profile Preferences. Go to the 'Colors' tab and select 'Linux 
Console' from the 'Built-in schemes' combo-box.

Hope that helps,
73 Andy, G4KNO.
