Out of my OCD, I played more with minicom, If I set Putty to emulate Xterm, I could then set-up macros for the function keys. This then allows me not to lose the 4 keys that I use in c-kermit. For reference, the minicom escape character is ^, when I had to add multiple keystrokes after the escape character, I fonud that I needed to put a [, so one escape sequence was ^[Ow or ^[[V (see below) I think I am going to stay with c-kermit since I do not need to play with the putty emulation, since the keys are standard map.
