Key mapping terminal emulation options

Character codes received from a keyboard can be converted to different character codes before being sent to the host. This conversion, known as key mapping, can be useful when you have different types of keyboards that need to be mapped to the same set of character codes.

A key mapping consists of an input sequence of character codes and the output sequence of codes to which they will be converted. Generally, you would specify both the input and output sequences as single character codes, although you can define up to 5 character codes for each. A character code is entered as two hexadecimal digits. For example:

To convert the ASCII character A to B, you would define the input and output sequences as '41' and '42' respectively, which are the hexadecimal representations of the ASCII characters.

To convert a code of decimal 10 to 0, you would define the input and output sequences as '0A' and '00', respectively.

Note that character codes are always two hexadecimal digits, which means that leading zeroes must be provided.

A key mapping entry requires a range, specified by “keymaprange,” and at least an input sequence, specified by “inseq.” The output sequence (“outseq”) is optional. When removing a key mapping entry, only “deletekeymaprange” is required.
