Evidently David Jenner has done the zip.

About running in an MS-DOS box, I though that <ALT>/<ENTER> would
switch the monitor to full screen. Maybe I don't understand how W955/98
works??????

That would not fix the VT100 problem, but someone who wanted to persevere
could press the individual keys starting with <ESC> to start the arrow key
sequences and application keypad. Most of the time, I have found that the
VT100 keyboard aspects are not used unless the SL: (single line editor) is
turned on (SET SL: ON).

Sincerely yours,
