-
- OTSETUP is used to install extended function key
- definitions in OTERM. See OTERM.DOC for details on
- using extended function keys.
-
- The syntax for OTSETUP is
-
- otsetup <fkey file> <OTERM input> <OTERM output>
-
- Only the fkey file is required. The OTERM input
- file defaults to oterm.com as does the output file.
- Only those parts of the input or output OTERM file
- names which differ from the default need be entered.
- For example:
-
- otsetup fkeys b: b:
-
- will use b:oterm.com and create b:oterm.com.
-
- In all cases, if a file with the same name as the
- output already exists it will be renamed with an
- extenstion of .bak.
-
- The fkeys file contains the extended function key
- definitions in the form:
-
- name /function key value/
-
- The name may be from 1 through 127 alphanumeric
- characters. Upper and lower case are equivalent.
- The "/"s may be any printing character. The func-
- tion key value may contain any characters except the
- delimiter specified (including carriage returns and
- line feeds).
-
- Any number of carriage returns, line feeds, spaces
- or control characters may appear between the name
- and the delimiter or before the next name.
-
- Commands may be entered in the function key value as
- for files by entering esc <digit> for a function
- key.
-
- Control characters may be entered in the file, or
- may be entered as esc <char>. For example, esc a,
- would generate ^A. Rubout may be entered as esc ?.
-
- Note: To enter a control character with WordStar,
- precede it with control p.

- Example:
-
- a /function key a/
-
- verylongfunctionkeynamebutnotevenclosetomax
-
- /line1
- line2
- line3
- /
-
- commands
- =^[1log on
- xmodem rc file.txt
- ^[1wait 20
- ^[1send file.txt
- =
-
- In the last definition, ^[ is an escape character.
-
- If a function key is defined with the name
- OTERMINIT, it will be executed when OTERM is
- started. If one is defined with the name OTERMEND,
- it will be executed at program termination.
- OTERMEND may not contain a file read command, but
- otherwise these function keys follow the same rules
- as others and may be executed manually.
