Hello,

I have a second-hand tvi955 at home (without manual),
which I occasionally need to use with a screen
oriented package that relies quite heavily on function keys.

Unfortunately, the tvi function keys seem to emit quite
weird sequences (^A @ ^M for F1, ^A B ^M for F2, etc),
so I would like to program them to look more like say, vt100.

I seem to recall someone sending a Televideo summary here some
time ago, but I didn't need the info then and have lost the file, too.

1) Can anybody show me the escape sequence to program the
   function keys F1-F16 (and the shifted versions too, if possible) ?

2) Somehow, my TAB key sends the sequence "s/v". Could the hardware
   be broken, or can it be changed programmatically ?

3) Also, do there exist sequences to program the other keys
   (the arrow keys, home, line insert/delete, etc. ?)

Thank you for your attention, etc.

Tapio
