Since he's talking to routers, I'm guessing he just needs the basic 
keys, as opposed to something like PF1-4 with a properly functioning 
keypad, and double-height characters like I do.  There are several 
options that should work just fine for him.

For someone like me looking to replace a DEC VT420 terminal, and 
wanting a terminal emulator that includes all of the features that I 
use, it looks to be basically impossible.  Terminal.app comes *very* 
close, but I can't get the PF1-4 keys mapped to "num lock/clear", 
"=", "/", and "*" on the keypad like they belong.  Does anyone know 
how to add additional key mappings to Terminal.app?
