  Is there any way to assign values to the function keys?
I mean, tn3270 from the Console pretty much sux because I have
to use the esc sequence for all the keys because the function keys
return INVALID CONTROL CODES. So how do I specify, for example,
that I want the keypads enter key to be an esc .   and f1 to be esc 1 ?
  thanks
