key-action pair. The table would be loaded at boot time and would by-pass
running programs checking keyed input directly. That is what the LINUX
[SysRq] key sequence does. LINUX uses it for example to kill hung
processes.

Eric,
Which output method is a good question for which I do not have an answer.
The program is a Clipper 5.2.x and has a number of added libraries. These
may have replaced the original output routines.
I use NET USE LPT1: to intercept the program output. Is that a clue to this
mystery?

I was thinking it would be useful to have an escape key sequence of some
kind. LINUX consoles have a [system-request] key feature that is a kernel
option as I remember.
Taking this thought further, a general facility defined in an ini-file that
has escape-sequences matched to actions. A key seque
