If you change the terminal resource file, your change affects all forms you run. Not a good idea.
You can set up a key-others form-level trigger, and no keys will work except the ones you want to allow. To allow the key-trigger, you have to set up a key-whatever trigger, and in it do its associated command. Be SURE to create a key-exit trigger if you do this.
If you just want to disable a specific trigger or two, set up a keytrigger for those, and instead of inserting the associated command, give it a NULL; command, or a message command to say something like, "That key is not allowed".
