I use my SE with a regular keyboard very often as a terminal.
One thing bothers me is that I see the control key and the esc key on my
keyboard but I have to use the apple command key for the control key and
command-{ for the esc key. I don't know if there is anyway install the
functions of the control and the esc keys on the keys that are so labelled.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

Red Ryder 10.3 will, for example, happily process the esc and control key on Apple's new ADB keyboards. You need not use the command and option keys for these functions. (I just wish that there was an option not to use either, and get control of those keys back for keyboard shortcuts and special characters!)

MacTerminal 2.2 correctly uses the <ESC> key on ADB keyboards, as well as allowing either the control or command key to be used for <control>. It should be available from your dealer as a free upgrade by bringing in your original disks. At least, that's how I think it's supposed to work.
