- My solution to the problem is to use the functions keys, and define one as
- "escape ^(whatever character you want)^M"
- Every time I open a terminal, I hit the specific function key and that redifine
- the escape fot the telnet. Then I use "open host" and everything works fine.

- in registry, but I have no idea what
