                How do I send the help key?  man tn5250 says help is M-h,
but I can't
                figure it out.  Isn't M for Meta the same as Alt?  I tried
Ctrl-Alt-h,
                Alt-h, Ctrl-h, Shift with each of those...

                I'll never understand why programs don't all use F1 for
help!  (The
                AS/400 programs underneath, not tn5250)

F1 is used for HELP in both the tn5250 and the AS/400 native environment.
Try it.



The only way I know to get a good show is 
to practice, sweat, rehearse and worry...
You have to plug away, keep thinking up new ideas.
If one doesn't work, try another.
