That good to hear :-)

Sorry about the typo, of course I meant 8 bit characters! I haven't seen 
9 bit characters since I worked on Honeywell systems ;-)

I have seen that e.g. the editor uses 7bit Escape sequences (e.g. 0x19+"[" for CSI), while the test program sends 8bit sequences (e.g. 0x9b for CSI). This seems to be hardcoded somewhere, so I cannot change it. This leaves me some options:

CTRL-Y works in rxvt, but there I don`t know how to set keymappings, and how to make it interpret 8bit control sequences.
