[GreenKeys] Siemens T100 restoration

[Javier Albinarrate]

Hi Henning!

Great work! I always wonder when I see projects posted like this one, how 
you manage to take all these pictures :)
Whenever I am working on a teletype or a radio (but specially a teletypes) I 
end up with the kitchen all dirty, hands with oil grease and dust, etc etc 
etc I do not dare to touch the camera :D and washing everything every two 
minutes to take a picture is not convenient... Of course I could ask my wife 
to do it, but... it's better not to enter in that discussion.
Congratulations!

And answering Simon, you got a T100 with computer types? That is an oddity 
for sure.
This one and pretty much all of them have ITA2 (Always uppercase of course) 
with at most a couple of different national characters in the FIGS, here in 
Argentina they had the Ñ.


Regards

Hey, thats good to hear. I'm currently working on a T100a in aluminium
case that was specifically build as a computer terminal, albeit with
5bit code. it has a numerical block on the right and some strange
carracters not seen in ascii, like a very wide X or something that looks
like "1o" but in subscript position.

This one writes in all caps, does yours print in caps or in undercase
chars?
