Is the keyboard mapping sufficiently predictable these days? PC keymappings have long been problematic because of the plethora of keyboard variations and mapping variations. If the linux console is indeed reasonably predictable nowadays, it wouldn't be hard to produce a termcap and map entry for it. Unfortunately I'm in front of the TiBook at the moment, and the PC is now 3000 miles away. As for your CBF discovery (notwork when the current directory isn't writable), that would seem to be a misfeature at best. I wonder if it's trying to write an "app_ingkey.err" complaining about your keymapping or something? I can't offhand think of any reason why CBF would be wanting to write anything real in the current directory.
