Hmmm. Even if x3270 doesn't support it, you can certainly use xmodmap to arbitrarily redefine your keyboard, although I don't know if you can do it on a per-app basis. Probably you can, though. Although it looks like replacing the x3270 keymap would also work for you. Just display the current keymap, save it to a file, replace the mappings you want, and then load the keymap from the "Load Keymap" item in the Options menu. In addition to mapping Ctrl to Enter you'd want to change any mappings that depend on Ctrl, of course. And I don't see what's wrong with the printing support; you can either print by LUName, or take a dump of the current screen and print that. I guess I'm a bit lost as to what you're trying to do that won't work. Adam
