    You want to go into Oracle*Terminal, and change the key name. Note that you have to change it *both* under the [Product] and [Mapping] menu choices, and make sure the names match. (Whatever you do, though, don't change the product function code! SQL*Forms will never understand your keys that way.) You can also have Oracle*Terminal print out the new key mapping.

    Also, if any of the keys are being used for a [KEY-something] trigger in SQL*Forms, you can change the key description in the Forms trigger, to better describe what the key does: for example, if your [KEY-F0] trigger actually does a HOST() call to list your files, you can set the trigger [Show keys] description to "List files".
