in the old days, control characters for terminal emulators were simple.  the
clover was mapped to be the control character.  but now, the mac SE and II
have real control keys as well as the clover.  are they mapping into different
parts of the character set?

for eample, consider an old copy of red ryder (pre-se).  
the control key does what its supposed
to most of the time, mirroring the clover key.  i.e., control-a gives us the
same as clover-a.  however, control-c gives us (me, at least) a carriage
return, while clover-c generates a control-c.
and control-h matches the delete key (either backsapce or rubout
semantics) while clover-h always gives us backspace.  thus to use gnuemacs,
one has to define (to RR) the delete key as delete, use clover-h instead of C-h
for help.

does anyone have any insight into the way the new mac's control/clover keys
work and how an old program like the old red ryder can recognize the new
control and escape keys.  (Do any new terminal emulators support these keys
better?)

thanks.
