Lindows is basically Debian for x86; the Lindows Xt5250 package is my
tn5250 package for Debian stable, which is based on tn5250 0.16.2.

Unfortunately, the current unstable version of my tn5250 package won't
install any more on Lindows (or stable Debian), though I could have a
go at creating the package on another machine.

The XTerm file in that version of my tn5250 package is a little
broken.  It's located in /usr/share/tn5250/XTerm, and doesn't have
that line, although it should.  Here's my current version, which
should work with the older package too:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
xt5250*VT100.Translations: #override \n\
              <Key>KP_Add: string("\030") \n\
         <Key>KP_Subtract: string("\033M") \n\
         <Key>Scroll_Lock: string("\033H") \n\
         ~Shift<Key>Print: string("\020") \n\
          Shift<Key>Print: string("\003") \n\
        ~Shift<Key>Escape: string("\001") \n\
         Shift<Key>Escape: string("\003") \n\
           <Key>Control_L: string("\022") \n\
          Shift <Key>Left: string("\033\010") \n\
         Shift <Key>Right: string("\033\025") \n\
          Shift <Key>Home: string("\033\006")
