- | This is the Oddball Keys file. It’s just a normal Obey file which is run
- | when Oddball loads. It allows you to set up the function keys to perform
- | a set of Oddball menu operations. Oddball returns the previous
- | key definitions when it ends.

- Key 12 ⇦⇦2⇩⇩⇩⇩⇩<13>⇦⇦66
-
- | This sets up F12 as a ‘Boss Key’. When pressed during a game it will save
- | the current game in slot 6 and then exit to the desktop. This is how it
- | works:
-
- | The string after ‘Key 12’ is what you would type if you were making the
- | menu selction yourself.
- | The two ⇦ get you out of whatever menu you are in.
- | The 2 selects ‘Save Game’ from the menu
- | The five ⇩ move to the bottom of the save menu.
- | The <13> emulates the return key.
- | Again the two ⇦ get out of any menu that you are in.
- | The 66 selects ‘Exit to Desktop’ from the menu. For safety, you need to
- | press 6 twice to exit the game.
-
- | Get the idea? The arrows, by the way, are entered by holding down the Alt
- | key whilst typing in 136, 137, 138 or 139 as appropriate. Try it and see.
