I don't have a .Xdefaults file, so I modified the X5250 file before 
installation (thus making my version the one in /usr/local/share/x5250/)

I like my keyboard to match a dumb terminal as much as possible so I 
don't have to relearn if I go use a real 3487.  I edited those two lines 
but didn't get it to work.

X5250*Enterkey                  : 0xFFE4
X5250*Fieldexitkey              : 0xFF0D 0xFF8D

My post was just going to be "it doesn't work" until I went to copy the 
above lines and realized my file had an exclamation point at the 
beginning of each...

Now I get "Segmentation fault" if I run x5250.

I don't know what the best thing to do is, but I ran my same command 
preceded by strace and got the following as the last line:

open("/home/sporter/.Xdefaults-localhost.localdomain", O_RDONLY) = -1 
ENOENT (No such file or directory)

That may not be related, though.

$ tn5250 -version
tn5250 0.17.3
$ x5250 -v
x5250 version:  0.5.0

Any suggestions on what I should try next?
