EVE SHOW_KEY — VMS 5.1-B

 SHOW KEY

 Shows the current definition of a key you specify.  You can type the key
 name on the command line or at the prompt, press the key you want to know
 about.

 Example:

    The following command shows the definition of the GOLD-Keypad 8
    combination:

       SHOW KEY gold-kp8

    EVE then shows a message such as the following:

       GOLD/KP8 is defined as 'fill' in the EDT keypad.

 o  EVE key names are usually the same as at DCL.  (See help on Names For
    Keys.) In naming control keys or GOLD key combinations, use a dash,
    slash, or underscore as a delimiter in the key name.

 o  If the specified key is defined for a learn sequence, the message tells
    you the key is defined as "Sequence."

 o  For a list of all key definitions, see help on Keys or press GOLD-HELP.
    For a keypad diagram, see help on Keypad or press HELP.
