I used PuTTY to access my home Linux system from Windows at work. There does not seem to be any type of keyboard remapping capability in it that I can see. I just used it to connect to z/OS 1.8 UNIX shell (the default one). The PC Enter key generates a 0x15. This is a UNIX newline (equivalent to a Linux/ASCII 0x0A). It might be necessary to change the application. I don't know what the application is using for its terminal I/O. You mention "fields", so I guess your either using something like CURSES or maybe X11? I think we would need to know this. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
