- ; NAME: SKEY_SGI
- ; PURPOSE: Under Unix, the number of function keys, their names, and the
- ; escape sequences they send to the host computer vary
- ; enough between various keyboards that IDL cannot be
- ; written to understand all keyboards. Therefore, it provides
- ; a very general routine named DEFINE_KEY that allows the
- ; user to specify the names and escape sequences. This
- ; routine uses DEFINE_KEY to enter the keys for a Sun keyboard.
- ;
- ; Note: SKEY_SGI is primarily designed to be called by
- ; SETUP_KEYS, which attempts to automatically detect the correct
- ; keyboard type in use, and define the keys accordingly.
- ; Nonetheless, SKEY_SGI may be called as a standalone
- ; routine.
- ;
- ; CATEGORY: Misc.
- ; CALLING SEQUENCE:
- ; SKEY_SGI
- ; INPUTS:
- ; None.
- ; KEYWORD PARAMETERS:
- ; None.
- ; OUTPUTS:
- ; None.
- ; COMMON BLOCKS:
- ; None.
- ; SIDE EFFECTS:
-
- ; The definitions for the function keys have been entered, and
- ; can be viewed using HELP,/KEYS .
- ; MODIFICATION HISTORY:
- ; AB, 26 April 1989
- ; TJA, July 1990, setup_keys_sun created by the "breakup" of setup_keys
- ; into separate files.
- ; SMR, April 1991, setup_keys_sgi created by modifying setup_keys_sun
- ; AB, 21 September 1992,renamed from SETUP_KEYS_SGI to SKEY_SGI to
- ; avoid DOS filename limitations.
- ; AB, 16 June 1993, The IDL scanner used to treat octal string escapes
- ; in a manner similar to the C language, but this ability was
- ; removed to make the MS DOS port possible (conflicts with
- ; file path specifications). Removed all uses of that here.
