When I was forced to do my work through a DEC VT220, I became so screaming mad at the stupid placement of the COMPOSE key that I removed it with a screwdriver - just pryed it up and off it came, never to bother me again.

Somewhere at OSU there's an LK201 keyboard with a big hole toward the lower-left corner, in memory of me. And the DEC Field Service guy said that he visited a lot of places where there was a similar hole, and he agreed with my sentiments :-). Maybe a screwdriver will work on ADM12s as well? -=- Bob Sutterfield, Department of Computer and Information Science The Ohio State University; 2036 Neil Ave. Columbus OH USA 43210-1277 bob@ohio-state.{arpa,csnet} or ...!cbosgd!osu-eddie!bob soon: bob@aargh.cis.ohio-state.edu
