4 Keyboard Configuration
This chapter describes how to configure the keyboard, define key functions and compose special characters.
Keyboard Mapping
The functions of the computer keyboard are mapped as closely as possible to the terminal being emulated. The mapping of key functions can be determined by referring to the Emulation Keys list box in the Key Macro Settings dialog, which is displayed by selecting Key Macros... on the Tools menu.
The information in brackets in the right column indicates the default mapping of the key function named in the left column. In the list, S+ indicates the Shift key, C+ indicates the Control key and A+ indicates the Alt key. For example:
WY_INSLINE (S+C+VK_INSERT)
indicates that the Wyse emulation Insert Line function is mapped to the key combination Shift + Control + Insert.
Special key functions supported by each terminal emulation can be mapped to keys using the predefined macros listed in the Key Macro Settings dialog.

You can redefine the function of keys on the keyboard using the Key Macro Settings dialog. The options in this dialog enable you to redefine the function of most of the keys on your keyboard including the key combinations listed below:
●Key
