Hi Martin,
I've fixed some of the issues you mentioned (in CVS)
1) It now accepts all 10 chars for the device name
2) It now will load settings from the command-line and/or tn5250rc
file into the Quick-Connect dialog before displaying it,
so you can set map=285, and it will appear.
3) Added color mapping support. (for both Windows and Curses, but
not GTK or S/Lang)

I'll have to see if I can figure out how to add a "wizard" type question
to the setup program. Its got a lot of options that I haven't really
looked at (this install being relatively simple), one of them might work
for that.

This is only a problem under VNC, correct? I'm not that familiar with
VNC. If you built tn5250 from source, I could tell you how to log
the keyboard codes that TN5250 is receiving... That might help you
see what's going on?
I don't know much about VNC, so I don't know how much help I can be.
