VT100/KEYS -- VT100 Keyboard Emulation Key Layout              87/05/20


  VT100 emulator allows use of the PASTE and F8S keys.  You use the PASTE key to
  input the contents of the default paste buffer to the VT100 emulator.  You use
  the  F8S  key as a toggle to control whether or not the VT100 emulator appends
  to the underlying transcript file any text scrolled off the top of the screen.

  The VT100 emulator supports the Domain low-profile Model III keyboard  numeric
  keypad.    While running the VT100 emulator, if the keypad is in numeric mode,
  the keypad is mapped according  to  the  keycaps.    When  the  keypad  is  in
  application mode, the keypad is mapped according to position.

  The  table  below  shows  how  the  keys on a Domain low-profile Model III, or
  DOMAIN low-profile, or 880 keyboard map to the keys of a VT100.  Note that the
  VT100  definitions  for  the <F2>, <F3>, and <F7> keys supercede the usual EMT
  definitions for these keys.
