Sounds to me like you are just "missing something," namely the Red Ryder
documentation.

Red Ryder 10.3 offers several options for keyboard mapping and the support of
various control characters.  Rest assured that what you are experiencing is a
result of how some of your preferences are set up within Red Ryder and is not
a "bug" in RR.

So if this is the only thing keeping you from buying Red Ryder, then go ahead
and purchase it.  Then you will find more info on this "feature" on page 18 of
the docs.     ;-)
