-
- KEYCODE.EXE is a utility which displays key codes used in the
- Tera Term's keyboard setup file. This text describes the usage of
- KEYCODE.EXE and the format of keyboard setup file.
-
- Please read this text and Tera Term help for changing the keyboard
- configuration. Please do not ask the author questions about the
- keyboard configuration.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1. INSTALLATION
-
- If you are using Windows 3.1 or NT 3.X, install KEYCODE.EXE
- in Program Manager with its icon. If you are using Windows 95
- or Windows NT 4.0, create a shortcut for KEYCODE.EXE in a folder
- of your choice, in the Start menu or on the desktop.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 2. USAGE
-
- When you run KEYCODE.EXE, the message "Push any key" will be displayed
- in the window. When you press a key or a combination of keys (such as
- Ctrl+key), the message "Key code is XXXX." will be displayed. XXXX is a
- decimal number.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 3. ABOUT THE KEYBOARD SETUP FILE
-
- The keyboard setup file assigns keys on PC keyboard for various functions
- such as VT terminal functions, sending user defined character strings,
- executing Tera Term commands and executing macro files.
-
- The default keyboard setup stored in the file KEYBOARD.CNF is almost
- compatible with VT terminal keyboard. You can modify key assignments
- by editing the file.
-
- The file name of keyboard setup file to be loaded by Tera Term can be
- specified as a command line parameter of Tera Term (see Tera Term help).
- If you omit the file name extension, the default extension ".CNF" is used.
- If you omit the file name, the default file KEYBOARD.CNF is loaded.
-
- ...............................................................................
- 3.1 FORMAT OF THE KEYBOARD SETUP FILE
-
- Each key or key combination has a unique key code, which is called
- "PC key code".
-
- The keyboard setup file has six sections: [VT editor keypad],
- [VT numeric keypad], [VT function keys], [X function keys], [Shortcut keys]
- and [User keys].
-
- 1) [VT editor keypad] section
- In this section, VT editor keys are assigned to PC keys.
-
- Format:

-
- where:
-
- <VT editor key name>
- Up, Down, Right, Left, Find, Insert, Remove, Select,
- Prev, Next
-
- <PC key code>
- PC key code (decimal number)
-
- Example:
- Up=328
-
- 2) [VT numeric keypad] section

- ("User defined keys" of VT terminal)
- UDK6, UDK7, UDK8, UDK9, UDK10, UDK11, UDK12, UDK13,
- UDK14, UDK15, UDK16, UDK17, UDK18, UDK19, UDK20
-
- <PC key code>
- PC key code (decimal number)
-
- Example:
- F6=64
-
- 4) [X function keys] section
- In this section, Xterm F1-F5 keys are assigned to PC keys.
-
- Format:
- <Xterm function key name>=<PC key code>
-
- where:
-
- <Xterm function key name>
- XF1, XF2, XF3, XF4, XF5
-
- <PC key code>

-
- 5) [Shortcut keys] section
- In this section, Tera Term functions are assigned to PC keys.
-
- Format:

- <Shortcut key name> Function
- --------------------------------------------
- EditCopy [Edit] Copy command
- EditPaste [Edit] Paste command
- EditPasteCR [Edit] Paste<CR> command
- EditCLS [Edit] Clear screen command
- EditCLB [Edit] Clear buffer command
- ControlOpenTEK [Control] Open TEK command
- ControlCloseTEK [Control] Close TEK command
- LineUp Scrolls up screen by 1 line
- LineDown Scrolls down by 1 line
- PageUp Scrolls up by 1 page
- PageDown Scrolls down by 1 page
- BuffTop Scrolls screen to buffer top
- BuffBottom Scrolls screen to buffer bottom

- LocalEcho Toggles the local echo status
-
- <PC key code>
- PC key code (decimal number)
-
- Example:
- LineUp=1352
-
- 6) [User keys] section
- This section defines user keys for functions, sending a character
- string, executing a macro file or executing a menu command.
-
- Format:
- <User key name>=<PC key code>,<Control flag>,
- <Character string>
-
- where:
-
- <User key name>
- User1, User2, User3,...., User99
- Maximum number of user keys is 99.
- For example, if you want to define ten user keys,
- you must use the first ten names, from "User1" to "User10".
-
- <PC key code>
- PC key code (decimal number)
-
- <Control flag>
- Control flag which specifies how <character string>
- is treated when the PC key is pressed.
- 0 <Character string> is sent as it is.
- 1 New-line codes in <Character string>
- are converted by Tera Term and
- the converted string is sent.
- 2 A macro file which has the name of
- <Character string> is executed.
- 3 A Tera Term menu command specified
- by the menu ID <Character string> is
- executed.
-
- <Character string>
- If <Control flag> is 0 or 1, <Character string>
- represents the character string to be sent.
- A non-printable character (control character) in
- the string can be expressed as a "$" and ASCII code
- in two-character hex number. For example, CR character
- is expressed as "$0D". "$" itself is expressed as "$24".
- See "Appendix A ASCII CODE TABLE".
-
- If <Control flag> is 2, <Character string> specifies
- the macro file name to be executed.
-
- If <Control flag> is 3, <Character string> is the menu
- ID which specifies the menu command to be executed.
- The menu ID should be expressed as a decimal number.
- See "Appendix B LIST OF MENU IDs".
-
- Example:
- User1=1083,0,telnet myhost
- User2=1084,0,$0D$0A
- User3=1085,1,$0D
- User4=1086,2,test.ttl
- User5=1087,3,50110
-
- ...............................................................................
- 3.2 NOTE
-
- You can use a PC key code only once in the setup file.
- If you use a PC key code for multiple key assignments,
- the warning message "Key code XXX is used more than once" is
- displayed when the file is loaded by Tera Term. In this case,
- one of the assignments becomes effective and others are ignored.
-
- If you don't want to assign a key item to any PC key,
- use the word "off" like the following:
-
- EditCopy=off
-
- ...............................................................................
- 3.3 KEY COMBINATIONS
-
- The following key combinations are acceptable to Tera Term and KEYCODE.EXE:
-
- Shift+key
- Ctrl+key
- Shift+Ctrl+key
- Shift+Alt+key
- Ctrl+Alt+key
- Shift+Ctrl+Alt+key
-
- Since some combinations (such as Alt+key) are used as shortcut keys of
- Tera Term and Windows, they don't have PC key codes and can't be specified
- in the keyboard setup file.
-
- ...............................................................................
- 3.4 Q & A
-
- If you are in trouble with the keyboard configuration, please
- read this text and Tera Term help carefully.
- Please do not ask the author questions about the keyboard configuration.
-
- Q. Everytime I run Tera Term, the warning message
- "Key code XXX is used more than once" is displayed.
- A. See "3.2 NOTE".
-
- Q. I want to use the PC "F1" key as the VT100 PF1 key. I edit the
- keyboard setup file like the following but it does not work:
-
- [VT function keys]
- F1=PF1 (This is wrong.)
-
- A. The left hand side can not be the name of a **PC key** but
- the name of a **VT terminal key**. The right hand side can not be
- the name of a key but a PC key code.
- See "3.1 FORMAT OF THE KEYBOARD SETUP FILE".
- You should also be careful not to specify a PC key code more than
- once in the setup file (see "3.2 NOTE").
-
- Edit the keyboard setup file like the following:
-
- [VT function keys]
- PF1=59 (59 is the keycode for the F1 key.)
- [X function keys]
- ;XF1=59 (Avoid specifying 59 twice.)
- XF1=off (Replace 59 by "off".)
-
- Q. How to edit the keyboard setup file to assign the F1 key
- for sending the escape sequence "ESC [ A"?
- A. You can send any character string by using a user key.
- See "3.1 FORMAT OF THE KEYBOARD SETUP FILE".
- You should also be careful not to specify a PC keycode more than
- once in the setup file (see "3.2 NOTE").
-
- Edit the keyboard setup file like the following:
-
- [X function keys]
- ;XF1=59 (59 is the keycode for the F1 key.)
- (Avoid specifying 59 twice.)
- XF1=off (Replace 59 by "off".)
- [User keys]
- User1=59,0,$1B[A (The ASCII code for ESC is $1B.)
-
