That's me!  My name and e-mail address are in the docs that should've come
with it.

I hate to say this because of the way that it sounds but...RTFM.  Again,
in the docs it says that in your vt100.init file you can say:
	f 5  "some data to map function-key f5 to"
    f 15 "some data to map the SHIFTED function-key f5 to"

Already there!  Yes, the source is available...sounds like you just got
the executable without the source/docs.
