I got enough responses about the Dvorak keyboard to warrant another
posting on the subject.

To get this arrangement on the HP 2621, first get the terminal in the
configuration mode.  Note the labels at the bottom of the screen:
language, next, previous, etc.  Get into the language mode.  Note
again the labels: blank, D, DK/N, etc.  Now for the tricky and
undocumented part:  Hit CTRL-SHIFT-(home cursor up key), and watch
a neat little DV appear in the blank label.  You now have a Dvorak
keyboard!  Then hit the blank beige key twice to get back into the
operating mode.

The keyboard looks like this:

unshifted:

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  0  +  '  BS `
 *  ,  .  p  y  f  g  c  r  l  [  ]  <
  a  o  e  u  i  d  h  t  n  s  -
   \  q  j  k  x  b  m  w  v  z

shifted:

!  "  #  $  %  &  ^  (  )  =  ?  /  BS ~
 @  ;  :  P  Y  F  G  C  R  L  {  }  >
  A  O  E  U  I  D  H  T  N  S  _
   |  Q  J  K  X  B  M  W  V  Z

The del/esc, tab, caps, ctrl, shift, num, break, enter, ret, and back
space keys don't change.

Good luck to anyone who tries this keyboard!
