First of all, it is very easy to change the command-key equivalent used to
activate Suitcase II. Simply bring it up, choose "Settings", and type in the
character you want to use. That's it!

As far as VersaTerm/VersaTerm PRO go: later versions allow you to decide 
whether you want to use the Command key or the Control key to send control
characters to the host (this only works on ADB keyboards that have control
keys, I believe). I know that VT 3.20 and VT PRO 2.20 had this feature, as
do the latest versions, VT 4.0.x and VT PRO 3.0.x.
