KBD (KEYBOARD) *DM* -- Declare keyboard type.
usage: kbd [id]


FORMAT

  KBD [id]


  NOTE: This command is valid only in the DM file `NODE_DATA/STARTUP;
        it may not be typed from the keyboard.  See Chapter 1 of the
        DOMAIN System Command Reference Manuals for information on
        startup files.

  KBD allows you to specify which type of keyboard you have attached to
  your node so that the proper set of standard key definitions may be applied.
  When this command is invoked in the `NODE_DATA/STARTUP file, it causes the
  DM to execute the corresponding key definition file (/SYS/DM/STD_KEYS2).
  If this command is not invoked, then the key definitions in /SYS/DM/STD_KEYS
  (corresponding to keyboard 1) are used.

ARGUMENTS

  id
  (optional)       Specify keyboard id.  This is only necessary if your node
                   is using keyboard 2, in which case specify the id as "2".
                   Default if omitted: execute /SYS/DM/STD_KEYS (keyboard 1)
