He wants to know: How do you bind the function keys to a specific command (CLI command is what I think he means). For example, make a particular key equal to "cd /usr/bin" or whatever. I guess he wants some sort of unix like 'alias' capability but for function keys, not keystroke combinations (although if he could do that I think he would be happy). I know various terminals make this easy, but for example on a Mac I think its a little tougher and so function keys (fkeys) are used for more complex things (screen dumps, etc) Anyway, he has looked through all his Amiga documentation to no avail, so even a pointer on where to look there would be appreciated. Please respond by mail if possible ( I try to read this group for this guy but I can't even get him to take the time to download & build Dave Wecker's vt100 program, so I'm kind of loosing interest & falling behind) Thanks, Folks Wade Blomgren UC San Diego ACS ...sdcsvax!sdacs!wade or ...sdcsvax!net1!wade
