- HOW TO CHANGE THE KEYBOARD KEYS
- Using the F Function Keys (F1 to F10)
-
- REDEFINING KEYS
- Redefining keys means changing the content of the key
- to represent something different from the function assigned
- to that key: For example, you can change the F1 function key
- (top row) to mean Copy, Format, or anything you like. The
- name of the key will still be F1, but you have changed the
- contents of F1 so that when you strike the F1 key it may Copy
- a file, Format a disk, or something else.
-
- Redefining keys is a good way of putting commands in
- keys that you don't use and make them a super Speed-key that
- uses only one keystroke. Most Macros use the F keys first, then
- a combination then the Alt-F keys and Shift-F keys.
-
-
- EVERY KEY ON THE KEYBOARD HAS A CODE NUMBER
-
- By using the number (called a Scan Code) corresponding
- to the key you can change the content (assignment) of that
- key. The keyboard Scan Code for the F1 key is 0;59, F2 is 0;60,
- F3 is 0;61 and so forth to F10 which is 0;68.
- Table 1 is a list of redefinition code numbers (scan codes)
- to be used in redefining the F keys and combinations of F keys.
