No escape key? No problem! Ctl-[ to the rescue. If you really want to puzzle the kids let them loose on an old hpux or irix box where # is remapped to backspace and @ is remapped to kill...

That's a lovely terminal; makes me wish I'd held onto my vt220 just to show the kids all the weird things people used to have to put up with. I remember there was something deranged about it's keyboard that I eventually came to not really mind all that much. Eventually I spent years of my life in front of a decstation 3100 and I think I eventually got used to the strange layout.
