Just a preliminary comment: you can temporarily work around this, but he
should be spending time on getting some other kind of terminal -- an old
486 running intel linux is perfect for this, and he'll want X or x3270
next....  A 3270 and Linux are not a good long-term combination.

Try the not sign or EBCDIC cent sign and the character. ESC is cntrl-[
(cntrl left bracket). Better yet, acquire a copy of Arty Ecock's
TNVT100, which (miraculously) does a pretty fair job of emulating a
VT100 on a 3270 (as far as one can convince that chorus of porcine
individuals to give voice). It's still clunky as heck, but vi "works"
and most other terminal stuff is more "friendly".

See http://www.naspa.com/PDF/96/T9608014.pdf for some pointers on where
to get TNVT100 (and lots of other goodies).
