I'm sorry, but the spec doesn't say that manual keying has to be any
of these things. It simply must exist.
Like I said: you can burry your manual keying interface behind
a tty based command line interface that speaks only EBCDIC if you
want, and is available only on Thursdays with full moons. So long as
someone who arrives at a certification lab has a EBCDIC terminal with
them, it won't matter.
Just because it is in the spec doesn't mean you have to have it in
your GUI.
