I haven't messed with pushbuttons in DDS at all.  Generally I avoided these 
because of the few, very few, twinax terminals we have left.  We've purchased 
none of the new twinax terminals that supported pushbuttons for a number of 
reasons; required different controller, buy a PC instead, etc.  Knowing this 
may explain my possibly ignorant reply.  If this application has a small target 
user market have you thought about remapping their keyboard for terminal 
emulation?



Here's a simple question for someone:  On a subfile *DSPF I use pushbuttons.  
The instructions explain the use of the mnemonic (for example 'E>xit') and it 
displays just fine, with the "x" underlined.  However how does a user key the 
mnemonic?  Alt-x doesn't do a thing, or at least I can't get it to.
