	I'm unsure which version of Microport your running. V/AT ? V/386 ?

        I am using V/386 3.0Ue here and I have tried the above
    experiment and it works okay. I put something like 'ps -ef' on
    function key F1 and F10. I then switched to another virtual
    console and logged in. Both of the function keys still performed
    the 'ps -ef'.  Hummmmm.......
