Figure C-3 shows part of a map3270 entry that applies to six terminal
types – avt, vt100, etc. Each definition begins with a reserved name, such
as enter, identifying the IBM key or function. Not all key names listed in
a map3270 file refer to actual keys on a 3278 keyboard (Table C-73 on
page A-221 describes the key names).
avt | vt100 | vt100nam | pt100 | vt125 | vt102
enter = '^m';
clear = '^z' | '\EOM';
#for tn3270 print-screen function
lprt = '\Ep';
nl = '^?';
tab = '^i';
btab = '^b';
left = '^h' | '\E[D';
right = '^l' | '\E[C';
Figure C-3. Portion of a Sample map3270 File
The reserved name in a map3270 definition is followed by an equal sign
(=) and one or more ASCII key sequences, each of which is enclosed in
single quotation marks. Within a map3270 ASCII sequence, a caret (^)
introduces a control character (or a control-character sequence), and ESC
is represented as backslash E (\E).
If more than one sequence can be used for the same IBM function, a
vertical bar separates the sequences. For example, in the map3270 file
shown in the preceding example, the IBM clear function is defined as
either of the following sequences: ^z or \EOM.
