Use the DEFINE/KEY and DELETE/KEY statements to create your own key definition file, as described in the following sections. The DEFINE/KEY statement assigns a new function to a particular key: DEFINE/KEY [/STATE=EXTEND] key_name function /STATE Optional. Default: nonextend mode. Redefines the key in extend mode. key_name Standard key name. function TN3270 function you want mapped to this key. You can define most of the named keys both in normal (nonextend) mode and in extend mode. You can define the control keys (and the synonyms for them) in normal mode only. Do not specify the qualifier /STATE=EXTEND. The following example assigns the EXIT function to the key sequence EXT + Z : $ DEFINE/KEY/STATE=EXTEND "Z" EXIT The DELETE/KEY statement removes the function assigned to a particular key. Use the following format: DELETE/KEY [/STATE=EXTEND] key_name /STATE Optional. Default: nonextend mode. Deletes the key in extend mode. key_name Standard key name.
