I saved the original posting for the terminal program so here it is.  
I have converted the keys variable to ASCII with ->ASC.

Here's the one I wrote and used for a while.  It's pretty slow, but it 
  works ok.  The functions are mostly in the comments, and you might need
  to know that orange shift = shift, blue shift = control.  

The only reason I'm posting this is that I've read and answered several 
  requests like this in the past few days.  I f anyone has any questions, 
  just email.  I'm having a quite boring summer, so I don't have anything
  better to do.  Anyway, here it is.

I have a feeling news may not handle the keys file too well; I broke it 
  up[ into several lines, but it should be 1 long one.  The control 
  characters will most likely screw something up, but I'm too lazy to
  fix it (since I don't have a 48 currently anyway).  Here's how, though:
  replace all the control characters with a sequence of the form \###, where
  ### is the ascii (or hpascii, at least) code of the control character.
  cntrl-a, for example, is \001, cntrl-M is \013, etc.

Good luck.
