[comp.sys.apollo] Editing Grey Keys Disabled

sun@me.utoronto.ca (Andy Sun Anu-guest) (11/02/90)

If the function keys for the screen editor were disabled (got a message
insufficient rights... on the error window), where should I look to
fix this? The cutting and pasting, windowing stuf all works, it's just
the editor functions that does not work. Can anyone enlighten me on this 
keyboard function key mystery?

Pretty much any key on the keyboard can be redefined using the DM
"kd" command. When you login, your key definitions are read from
the ~/user_data/key_defs?* file. When you logout, your current definitions
are stored in the file (in case you made any changes). The standard
key definitions can be found in /sys/dm/std_keys?*, which are files of
DM "kd" commands for redefining the basic keyboard.
