Description

I love the integrated 5250 terminal in Code for i. I don't have to go back to ACS to look at things.
But I have a custom keyboard map I use in ACS. I get myself into trouble with the new 5250 due to different keys pressed than I am used to.

Can we get a keyboard mapper or import of an ACS keyboard map into this code for i 5250 terminal so our mappings match?
