Chapter 15: Installation
Installing Sun SPARCsystem Software
Step 5. Map your function keys
If you are using the conventional Softkey Interface, map your function keys by
following the steps below.
1 Copy the function key definitions by typing:
cp $HP64000/etc/ttyswrc ~/.ttyswrc
This creates key mappings in the .ttyswrc file in your $HOME directory.
2 Remove or comment out the following line from your .xinitrc file:
xmodmap -e 'keysym F1 = Help'
If any of the other keys F1-F8 are remapped using xmodmap, comment out those
lines also.
3 Add the following to your .profile or .login file:
stty erase ^H
setenv KEYMAP sun
The erase character needs to be set to backspace so that the Delete key can be used
for "delete character."
If you want to continue using the F1 key for HELP, you can use use F2-F9 for the
Softkey Interface. All you have to do is set the KEYMAP variable. If you use
OpenWindows, type:
setenv KEYMAP sun.2-9
If you use xterm windows (the xterm window program is located in the directory
/usr/openwin/demo), type:
setenv KEYMAP xterm.2-9
Reminder: If you are using OpenWindows, add /usr/openwin/bin to the end of the
$PATH definition, and add the following line to your .profile:
setenv OPENWINHOME /usr/openwin
After you have mapped your function keys, you must start the X server and an X
window manager (if you are not currently running an X server).
