The requirements for these sequences are:
1.) that the first character of the sequence be outside of the standard ascii printable characters; 2.) that no one sequence be an initial part of another (although sequences may share initial parts).
The definitions consist of a reserved keyword (see list below) which identifies the 3270 function (extended as defined below), followed by an equal sign (`='), followed by the various ways to generate this particular function, followed by a semi-colon (`;'). Each way is a sequence of strings of printable ascii characters enclosed inside single quotes (`''); various ways (options) are separated by vertical bars (`|').
Inside the single quotes, a few characters are special. A caret (`^') specifies that the next character is the ``control'' character of whatever the character is. So, `^a' represents control-a, ie: hexadecimal 1 (note that `^A' would generate the same code). To generate rubout, one enters `^?'. To represent a control character inside a file requires using the caret to represent a control sequence; simply typing control-A will not work. Note: the ctrl-caret sequence (to generate a hexadecimal 1E) is represented as `^^' (not `^\^').
In addition to the caret, a letter may be preceded by a backslash (`\'). Since this has little effect for most characters, its use is usually not recommended. For the case of a single quote (`''), the backslash prevents that single quote from terminating the string. To have the backslash be part of the string, it is necessary to place two backslashes ('\\') in the file.
In addition, the following characters are special:
`\E' means an escape character; `\n' means newline; `\t' means tab; `\r' means carriage return.
It is not necessary for each character in a string to be enclosed within single quotes. `\E\E\E' means three escape characters.
Comments, which may appear anywhere on a line, begin with a hash mark (`#'), and terminate at the end of that line. However, comments cannot begin inside a quoted string; a hash mark inside a quoted string has no special meaning.
In the following list, the starred ("*") functions are not supported by tn3270.1 An unsupported function will cause tn3270(1) to send a bell sequence to the user's terminal.

The definition of "word" (for "word delete", "word tab") should be a run-time option. Currently it is defined as the kernel tty driver defines it (strings of non-blanks); more than one person would rather use the "vi" definition (strings of specials, strings of alphanumeric).
