Control key preferences #4

Great app, however I'm unable to effectively use it on my Droid 3 due to Ctrl not being sent from its hardware keyboard. I've used the preferences setting to send Ctrl as @ or Vol Up / Vol Down and it does not seem to work. Ideally I'd like to use this setting with @ as the Ctrl key. Should this work?

I have a hardware keyboard that looks like this: http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&sa=X&pwst=1&biw=1680&bih=949&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=ETQZRZjstDUlqM:&imgrefurl=http://www.androidtapp.com/droid-3/droid-3-keyboard-open/&docid=jnBLEy7XMYjbPM&imgurl=http://cdn.androidtapp.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DROID-3-Keyboard-Open.jpg&w=3900&h=3300&ei=6Uw3UJecNevm6gHy04DAAQ&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=325&sig=103699290038862595054&page=1&tbnh=139&tbnw=164&start=0&ndsp=38&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0,i:74&tx=82&ty=80

Hi, the same issue - cannot send Control key on Galaxy Tab 8.9 Keyboard dock. Ctrl key itself works flawlessly on ConnectBot (tablet version).

I for one am curious why Android Terminal Emulator was chosen as the base rather than ConnectBot.

It was hard to remove SSH/Telnet parts from ConnectBot. In Android Terminal Emulator I just had to change few properties in resource file.
