From: Don Cavaiani

Does anyone know the difference between "make only on enter key" versus
"make/break on enter key" when setting up a "wedged" scanner on an IBM
3180 terminal?

I THINK this has to do with whether the scanner sends both a keydown and a
keyup sequence when you hit the enter key on the device. My guess is that
it's more important for Unix and PC applications; I don't know what
relevance it has in the block mode world of the 3180.

Does either or both work?
