Does doing an "stty -onlcr" make it work the way they want?  In order to have 
everything else work right they will probably want to create a shell script to 
do something like this:

stty -onlcr
run the application
stty onlcr

They could also modify the application to use ioctl to turn off onlcr.

Not sure if this is the place to ask this question, but I am stumped about a
keyboard redefinition request a client has sent me.

When we ported a MF application over to Unix recently, the system owner
began tor receive complaints from the user community about how the <Enter>
key now works.  Rather than move the cursor to the next available field (it
performed a newline/NL/LF), as they were used to, it behaves as one would
expect an <Enter> key to react in a windows or unix-based environment: Both
a carriage return and line feed take place, and the users don't like that.

We use puTTY to access unix.  Is there something there that we can tweak to
make the <Enter> key work as a newline?  I have been playing around with
puTTY but have found nothing; and a google search has been fruitless.
Didn't see anything on servline24 either.

Thanks.

Bev in Halifax
