Ahh, ctrl-j does work for enter, but fiddling with stty commands
is going to be hard without 's' or 'y'.

Losing characters include:

12 4  78   =
     yu  p[]
asd gh k ;
z  vbnm, /

 @# %^&* )  |
QWERT  IO
   F  J L

It's interesting to note that, for the alpha characters, the missing
lowercase characters seem to complement the missing uppercase characters.
