Under VP/ix and SCO MS-WORD the systemconsle is switch in PC-TERM keyboard
scan mode. This is very good and it works fine.

This feature I am using on my Wyse Terminals already. Very well.

When I want to use VP/ix or SCO MS-WORD over the network using telnet, my Wyse
terminal is switched in PC-TERM scan mode. This very easy to understand,
because in severl files the are escape-sequences for doing this.
	in vpix:	/usr/vpix/term/wy60 
	in word:	/usr/lib/word/termscan


Now my Problem: When I want to use VP/ix or Word via TCP/IP-Telnet on another
Systemconsole this will not switch in PC-Scanmode. I think this will be a
spaziel bit in IOCTL or something like this.

Who can help me, to setup a terminfo-like informationbase in
/usr/lib/word/termscan as a sezial ansi-terminal for remote using.
Example:

rt|ransi|remote Ansi Terminal:\
	:XF=\147:\
	:XN=\145:\
	:ZF=<switch PC-TERM scan off>\
	:ZO=<switch PC-TERM scan on>\
	:tc=ansi

There is a simelar way for VP/ix

Thanks in advance
