I have tried using TERMINAL to connect to a VAX running VMS. The PC arrow keys do not seem to work properly when running EDIT in full screen mode for instance. Any ideas or fixes? rhodes@icdc.llnl.gov

A FOM had the same problem (not with the same host, though). The cure was to use Scroll Lock, which toggles the 'special keys' between being used by the TERMINAL.EXE's (editing & Windows-related) functions and being sent to the host as keypress escape sequences. Scroll Lock LED lit means that the host will have the keypresses, the opposite that you may view TERMINAL's back buffer by pressing 'Up', for instance.
