Maybe I should post this to one of the mac groups too, but I will
start here.  I am currently using Zterm (version .9 or something like
that) with Spectre.  I would like to be able to enter two different
key sequences that I have not been able to figure out.

How do I send and ESC key?  For example, I need to send and ESC when I
am in emacs.  The ESC key does not seem to function as an escape key
under Mac emulation.

How do I send a ^_ (that is control-shift-underbar).  The key sequence
is used in Pine (to switch to alternative editor).

A quick browsing thru my Spectre docs did not get me anywhere.  Is
this a limitation of the Mac or Z-term that is causing my frustration?

Also does anybody suggest that I scrap Z-term for a superiour
(share/free-ware) program ?

        .........Thanks....  ...Chris
