Problem with Function Keys

[Noel and Sandy Shelton]

I experienced F key problems at first.  They are completely programmable 
in your configuration file([severname].mtp).  I tried all the terminal 
emulations until I got the one with the closest match to what I needed 
and programmed the rest.  If you have access to a terminal that works 
properly, press the F key at the command prompt to determine what you 
actually want the function key to send, then in the MindTerm 
configuration file edit the "key-mappings=" line. For instance, mine 
looks like this:

key-mappings=shift+f4\=\u001B[26~,shift+f3\=\u001B[25~,home\=\u001B\u001B[D,end\=\u001B\u001B[C

replace the first ^[ with u001B so if you wanted the F1 key to send 
^[[11~, edit your mtp file to include this line:

key-mappings=f4\=\u001B[11~

Additional key mappings would follow on the same line separated by 
commas (see example above).


Hope this has been helpful rather than confusing.

Best of luck.
