SET SHIFT KEY
Sets the shift key (or "GOLD" key) for use with other keys. (This is the
same as SET GOLD KEY. There is no relation to the SHIFT key on the main
keyboard.) You can type the key name on the command line or, at the
prompt, press the key you want to set.
Example:
Command Purpose or effects
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SET SHIFT KEY pf1 Sets PF1 as GOLD. You can have only one
key set as GOLD at a time.
2. DEFINE KEY=gold/f fill Defines the combination of GOLD and the
letter F as the FILL command. Typing an
F by itself still enters that character.
o Setting the GOLD key, or setting the EDT or WPS keypad, automatically
defines some GOLD key combinations. For example, GOLD/REMOVE (on the
mini keypad) is then defined as STORE TEXT. See help on GOLD KEYS.
o If you set the GOLD key other than PF1 and then set the EDT or WPS
keypad, your GOLD key is used. To make PF1 the GOLD key, use SET
NOGOLD KEY.
o Key definitions remain in effect throughout your editing session or
until you redefine the key. To save key definitions for future
sessions, use SAVE EXTENDED EVE to create a section file or put the
commands in an initialization file.
