  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: F5 key mapping does not work            *
  *                      correctly for VT sessions.              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  Host On-Demand VT emulator sessions always send "break" for F5
  function key even if it is remapped to some other function.
  

Problem conclusion

• PSVT.java and ECLPS.java have been changed to allow the user
  to remap the F5 key. By default, the F5 key sends "break" to
  the host.
