	I am trying to TELNET to an IBM mainframe with a TELNET program called
TN3270.  It is supposed to tell the mainframe what kind of terminal I am using. 
I have a terminal program for my computer that is VT100 compatilbe, but the
mainframe I am getting on to has no keymap for a VT100.  When the mainframe
puts "MORE .." in the lower right hand corner, I am stuck because I don't have
the button to go on.  What button on a 3270 goes on and what ASCII sequence
does it send.  I think it is the CLEAR button, but I really don't know.  Can
anyone help me???
