We’re having good success except when changing the BRKY key.  On the old server BRKY was assigned to Delete whereas on the new server it’s assigned to Ctrl-C.  Within the FilePro developers reference (page 658) I can see that the termcap code for BRKY is PY.  Trouble is, no matter what I set PY to, the setting isn’t honored.  I’m able to get our other bindings changed, just not this one.

There is no "PY" termcap entry used by filePro.  There is an LY entry, which 
tells filePro what label to display.

The actual key that causes a break is controlled by stty's "intr" setting.
