Remarks

SpecialKeyFocus property determines if special keys (such as function keys F1-F12), and their combinations (such as ALT+F4) are captured by wodTelnetDLX or are passed to the environment. You can also define when will wodTelnetDLX capture those keys.

Typically, wodTelnetDLX will capture keys only during connection stage. When wodTelnetDLX is disconnected, it will ignore those keystrokes. However, if you need to use wodTelnetDLX for it's GUI ability (to implement different type of connection, such as serial, and just use wodTelnetDLX'es screen) you may find required to capture special keys in your application too. For this purpose, set SpecialKeyFocus to FocusAlways.
