JET 3270 Documentation > Mapping CTRL To Enter
Mapping Ctrl to Enter
The default keyboard mapping maps the keyboard Enter key to
the Enter 3270 key and the Shift+Enter key combination to the
New Line 3270 key. To more closely match the layout of 3270
terminals or other emulators you may wish to map the Ctrl key
to Enter and the keyboard Enter key to New Line. The following
instructions desciribe how to change the mapping.
- Open the session you wish to change the keyboard mapping
for.
- Select Settings from the Session menu (or click the
Session Settings button on the toolbar).
The Session Settings dialog box appears.

"Ctrl" or "Control" appears in the Key Combinations
column of the Enter row.
- Scroll to New Line in the 3270 Key list and click it.
- Click the Add button.
- Press Enter.

- Click OK.
A Warning dialog appears.
- Click Change.
Enter appears in the Key Combinations column of the
New Line row.

3270 cannot distinguish between them.
