Attached is a binhexed CompactPro archive of some helpful keyboard
macros I created for use with ClarisWorks 2.0's VT102 communications
emulation. Here's a little background from the READ ME file I've
included:

>They were especially designed for use in conjunction with Digital's
>All-in-One Office Automation package, but should work anywhere the
>VT100 emulation is used.
>
>Specifically, these macros allow users of Macintosh keyboards
>(both standard and extended) to employ all of the edit functions
>available on the VT series keyboards. They are especially useful
>for standard keyboard users because Macintosh (for reasons
>unknown) maps the "+" and "-" calculator keys differently on the
>two keyboards. The keys are supposed to serve the "paste" and
>"cut" functions, but only operate properly on the extended keyboard.
>
>In addition, users of both keyboards do not have the "find," "insert,"
>"remove," "select," "previous screen" and "next screen" user functions
>available to them in Claris' VT102 emulation.
>
>Claris is aware of the impact of these shortcomings on their
>emulation package, but hasn't seen fit to fix it yet. A real pain!

Hope these are helpful to anyone using ClarisWorks for communications.
