MAPKEY(M)                                  UNIX System V



     Name
          mapkey, mapscrn, mapstr, convkey - configure monitor  screen
          mapping


     Syntax
          mapkey [ -dox ][ datafile ]
          mapscrn [ -d ][ datafile ]
          mapstr [ -d ][ datafile ]
          convkey [ in [ out ] ]


     Description
          mapscrn configures the output mapping of the monitor  screen
          on  which  it  is  invoked.  mapkey and mapstr configure the
          mapping of the keyboard and string keys (eg. function  keys)
          of  the  monitor  (and multiscreens if present).  mapkey can
          only be run by the super-user.

          mapstr functions on a per-screen basis.  Mapping strings  on
          one screen does not affect any other screen.

          If a file name is given on the argument line the  respective
          mapping  table  is configured from the contents of the input
          file.   If  no  file  is  given,  the   default   files   in
          /usr/lib/keyboard  and  /usr/lib/console
          is  used.   The  -d  option  causes  the mapping  table
          to  be  read  from  the  kernel instead  of written and an
          ASCII version to be displayed on the standard output.  The
          format of the output  is  suitable for  input files to
          mapscrn, mapkey, or mapstr . Non-super-users can run
          mapkey and mapstr when the -d option is given.

          With the -o or -x options, mapkey displays the mapping table
          in octal or hexadecimal.

          convkey translates an old-style mapkey file into the current
          format.   If in or out are missing, they default to stdin or
          stdout.


     Files
          /usr/lib/keyboard/*
          /usr/lib/console/*


     Notes
          There is no way to specify that the map utilities read their
          configuration tables from standard input.

     Value Added

          System V provided by the Santa Cruz Operation.
