[comp.unix.xenix.sco] map command in SCO

gt8963a@prism.gatech.EDU (MCCARTNEY,JEFFREY ELWOOD) (05/30/91)

Would someone be so kind as to tell me how to do a "map"-type command
in SCO Xenix 2.3.2 where I can assign multiple keystrokes to a single
key?  (any key)

Thank you

In the manual under setkey.

I used one that took a whole file of a news thread in vi so that
hitting F1 took me to the head of the next article (most of the
time).

That was

setkey 1 /Path\\nz\\n

Then anytime I hit F1 it looked for the next occurance of Path,
found that, moved that to the first line of the screen.

Be sure to reset them on exit or you will have some very unpleasant
surprises. :-)
