Default Key Mapping Assignments (UNIX and VMS)

Ingres provides several default mapping files that contain key assignments for the FRS commands. The first is an installation-level mapping file, valid for all terminal types. The other two are default-mapping files for the VT100 and VT220 terminals. These mapping files assign default control or function keys to the FRS commands. The installation file assigns control keys to most of the FRS commands. The terminal-type files expand and, in certain instances, override the installation mappings.

The following table lists the FRS commands and their default installation‑level and terminal‑type level assignments for the vt100i and vt220i terminal types. Consult your system administrator to determine whether the defaults listed in the table are valid for your installation and terminal type. Check the files directory for other mapping files supplied with Ingres.

Note: The system administrator can modify the default mapping files provided with Ingres. If the files have been modified, the mappings for the FRS commands can differ from the following table. The system administrator can also create mapping files for other terminal types besides vt100i and vt220i. These terminal-type files would then override the installation-level file.

Mapping files for VT100 and VT220 terminals have been optimized to avoid unnecessary remapping functions that are already designated in the installation‑level frs.map file. If you modify the frs.map file, be careful to ensure the reliability of the mapping files for the VT100 and VT220 terminals.
