Hi Javier, I think this is related to the fact that the escape key is used to indicate the start of a special key sequence(F1,F2 etc) in VT* terminals. I think you can prove this by pressing the ESC key twice in quick succession; it should only send one ESC to the application. Earlier, around dosemu 1.2.2, I did once modify both the terminal program(putty) and dosemu to use the F20 escape sequence to generate ESC. This is fine as a one off, but could never be put into the core dosemu.
