I've been using Red Ryder (version 10.3) for a few days as a terminal
emulator and have come across a couple of questions that the documentation
I have available doesn't answer.  I was hoping that someone out there
in net-land could help...

  1. Due to the funny protocol of the cisco ethertip, I need to be
     able to generate Control-^ characters from the keyboard.  I
     cannot do this with either Command-Shift-6, Command-6, Option-6
     [as the documentation lists], or any variation thereof.  I *have*
     added it to the control button set on the "General Status Bar",
     but that's kinda clunky.  What am I doing wrong?

  2. In some of my macros I would like to have carriage return
     characters embedded (like "ATDT5551212^M") but again, nothing
     I try seems to work.  Is this beyond what the macros can have?
     If not, how do you escape the  key to have it added to
     the text?

  3. Also, is there any way, when I have "[`] sends escape sequence"
     turned on, to send a back quote without fiddling with the 
     Customize/Keyboard Mapping Preferences options?  (is there some
     way to map "clear" [I'm on a Mac Plus] to escape?  That'd be
     great!)

Overall, I must admit that RR is an excellent terminal emulator/comm 
package!  I like it much better than any of the other similar programs
I've tried...

			Thanks!
