       _m_e_d___K_e_y_c_a_p parametrizes keyboard input from different ter-
       minals, much as _t_e_r_m_i_n_f_o parametrizes output.   For  exam-
       ple, the following lines in _m_e_d___k_e_y_c_a_p
              vt52|VT52 terminal:
                .
                .
              :\ED=#01#8c:       /left
                .
                .     ____
       d_e_s_c_ribe  the  |_<_-_|_  key on a VT100 (VT52 mode).  Pressing
       |_<_-_|_ on the keyboard sends two  characters  (i.e.  <ESC>D)
       which  are translated to the value 0x018c for MED internal
       purposes.

       A header line specifies for which terminals the  following
       translations apply.  Several terminal names separated by a
       | may be given.

       The character // starts a comment.  Lines starting and end-
       ing  with  ::  are  translation  rules.   The  source byte-
       sequence and the target are separated by an equal sign  =.

       The following characters must be escaped by a backslash \:
              =:^\#


       The usual C-string convention applies to  octal  constants
       and the following sequences:
            \b   \f   \n   \r   \t

       Hexadecimal constants start with the character #.

       A control character is started by a ^ (i.e. ^A means <CTRL
       A> = \001).

       Backslash followed by an uppercase E means <ESCAPE>  (i.e.
       \033).
