Re: [LINUX5250] Keyboard mapping

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Brian,

If you do a "man tn5250", you'll see a line that looks like this:
       FieldExit    C-k, M-x

That means that FieldExit can either be Ctrl-K or ESC K  (because we use
ESC for Meta)

In ASCII, Ctrl-A thru Ctrl-Z have a value of 1 - 26 (decimal).  Since K
is the 11th letter of the alphabet, it'd be decimal 11, which is octal
13  (1 * 8 + 3 = 11)
