                               APPENDIX B

        It   has been  reported that some  systems (on  the remote end)
        will  not work properly if  they have been switched  to 30 line
        mode and back  to 25.   I  don't have  any more information  on
        this.   You will have  to reboot and reload your com package if
        you have this problem.

        Many  of  the communications  programs  have recently  added  a
        DOORWAY  mode.  The following lists the programs which have the
        capability  to  send  the  extended  key  codes,  such  as  the
        Function Keys, Alt keys,  and cursor keys.  Internal means that
        a  simple key  entry will put the  program into "DOORWAY" mode.
        Key file means that there must be  a key definition file  which
        must  be loaded to implement  this capability. The key file may
        be distributed with  the communications program, or may have to
        be downloaded from  a bulletin  board. Generally,  using a  key
        file is more complicated than if it is internal.

        *-PROCOMM  2.00 only allows the  cursor and function keys to be
        sent.  The IBM-PC emulation must be selected.

        Key file name for PIBTERM is PIBDOOR1.ZIP.
