Correction: Inside Mac Volume I page 258 is correct!

It seems that System 3.3 has reversed it's interpretation of ScrDmpEnb. Setting
ScrDmpEnb to zero does disable FKEY handling on System 3.2 and earlier. 

HOWEVER, on System 3.3, this is not so. Setting ScrDmpEnb to zero *enables*
FKEY handling.

I have checked this with some developers with beta test copies, and they have
found the same.

To solve this problem, I simply wrote an INIT to invert ScrDmpEnb.

TO APPLE: Any reasons why FKEYs are not supported per Command-Shift-digit
combinations? Has AppleShare got anything to do with it?

Thanks,
