Hi all. I'm developing a terminal client for LibreDOS, and can't figure
out what Mystic wants me to send for the arrow keys. I've tried a few
different ways including ANSI, but nothing works.

What is Mystic expecting to receive for arrow keys?

Thank you for any help or references. :)

It's just the usual ESC[A ESC[B etc - except I believe mystic expects all
the characters to be in one packet (I was told this, can't confirm)

I've run into the same issue with my telnet client for my OS. Originally
I thought it was too slow (there has to be a timeout for differentiating between someone pressing the ESC key vs someone sending an arrow key or
some other extended key)

Sweet thanks for the heads up. I figured it out, and am now sending a
an ACK before the key sequence. Works great now.

Something simple like BananaCom would be cool.

It's definately simple. It barely supports ANSI at this point.
