Error description

  • After installing IDz V17.0.3 and configuring the Remote
Connection Emulator with code page 424 (New Hebrew), none of the
keyboard keys work.
Pressing the keys has no effect on the emulation: neither the
letters nor even the Enter key register.

Changing the code page to 037 (English) make it works correctly,
but no Hebrew text is displayed on the screen.
This worked without any problems in IDz v17.0.2.
