SET FUNCTION
SET FUNCTION assigns to a function key a string of characters that are
stuffed into the keyboard buffer when the key is pressed.
Syntax
SET FUNCTION <expN> to <expC>
Argument
<expN> is the function key number.
<expC> is the character string of up to 2000 characters submitted to
the keyboard when the function key is pressed in a wait state.
Usage
SET FUNCTION can assign to a function key a string to stuff the
keyboard. This string may contain control characters, such as a Ctrl-C
(which is the equivalent of a PgDn), to complete a READ.
Note: A SET KEY definition takes precedence over a SET FUNCTION
assignment for the same key.
Function keys between 2 and 40 inclusive can be assigned using this
command. Function key 1, however, is reserved for use with Help.prg
and cannot be assigned a string.
Function Key Actual Key
1 - 10 F1 - F10
11 - 20 Shift-F1 - Shift-F10
21 - 30 Ctrl-F1 - Ctrl-F10
31 - 40 Alt-F1 - Alt-F10
