It will look for occurances of Option-Up arrow and This is a nice little INIT, but trying to use the keyboard switch from within VersaTerm PRO v 2.00 leads to disastrous results. On a Mac II, it scrambles the monitor. On a 512KE, it hangs the machine with mouse-freeze. This might have something do with the way VersaTerm PRO uses option-keys, but I wouldn't recommend using it with VersaTerm PRO. If you do, don't try to switch using the keyboard when in VersaTerm PRO, since you will certainly have to reboot. -- ********************************************************************* *Earle R.
