We have two Wall Data Protocol Converters.  Presently, we recommend
to users CrossTalk XVI because of its VT-100 emulation.  One of the
problems we have is the way in which these protocol converters assign
3270 functions (i.e. PF3=<esc>3<return>).  With CrossTalk, the vast
assortment of 3270 functions can be assigned to the F1-F10 keys (and
CrossTalk is flexible enough to allow SHIFT, CTRL and ALT as well).

But CrossTalk is really more than the user needs.  Are there any
VT-100 emulators out there for PCs that will let the user define
the SHIFT, CTRL, ALT and plain function keys F1-F10 (better if
F1-F12)?  Support of highlighting is also desired.  Public domain
would be nice but it's not a requirement.

Thank you for your help.
