Nix. termcap describes what the keys ACTUALLY SEND, not what YOU want them to send. You need to program the terminal keys F2 and/or F3 to send ^B - not muck with termcap. I'd offer more help, but I'm headed out of town till Wed Pm. cheers j. _____________________________________________________________________________ Jack Parker - Hewlett Packard, DMD/IS Boise, Idaho, USA jparker@hpbs3645.boi.hp.com _____________________________________________________________________________ I am terrified, on the one hand, that Dole might win.
