Actually a better alternative is the DISPLAY IS command so that anything you type on the keyboard shows up on the pyILPER terminal window.

Moreover, if you load the KEYBOARD LEX-file you will also be able to use the KEYBOARD IS command so that text typed on the Mac keyboard shows up on the 71B input buffer as if it were typed on the 71B keyboard.

KEYBOARD is available online on the SWAP/lexfl1 LIF Disk image. If you have a PIL-Box, you can download the disk image and copy KEYBOARD directly to your HP-71. A different version of the lexfile on the same disk is called KEYBRD. Try both. **
