Define a Key-??? trigger for the action you wish to take. On the trigger screen there is a field for description and a check box to use the key on the help screen. Check the box and enter the action's description. When you <show keys>, you will see the description with the appropriate key stroke that the user should use.
Which KEY-???? trigger to use? You can over-ride the value of a key that you afford to give up. Perhaps KEY-DUPREC? Or you can use one of the KEY-F1 thru F9 triggers. To do the latter you may have to go into oraterm and set-up the key before you can use it.
Hope that helps. Received on Thu Oct 27 1994 - 01:42:02 CET
