   If you use your 'arrow' keys to navigate these different levels, when you   
   highlight one of them, press 'enter' and your cursor should be on that   
   level. Whether you can see it or not doesn't matter. Begin typing and   
   there should be some response to your input.

   Does that part work?

   You don't say which shareware version, DOS, WIN, OS2 or LINUX...   
      
   Linux users seem to have the most problems configuring Irex.

   I wouldn't bother, since this program is no longer actively supported by   
   the author. I've used Irex for years and it's still functional, even with   
   its various quirks. Once configured, it will serve you well, but don't   
   expect any help from the author.

   My keyboard has a function key that allows the keys that don't work in   
   Irex to be used as intended. You might try using one of the CTL, ALT or   
   Shift keys to make changes in Irex.
