This reminds me, someone once talked about getting tn5250 to do internal
keymapping, a la the BSD tn3270 app. This setup seems to make more sense
to me, in that it would allow one to correctly report one's actual
terminal type (or emulated terminal type) to the operating system, and
have the app map 5250 keys to your terminal's keys. Does anyone know if
any work has been done on this, yet? Just out of curiosity. I'd be lying
if I said I had the time to do it m'self, but I was just wondering ;)

Cheers,
Mick
