To Set Up Custom Action Keys - HP 68000 Series User Manual

To set up custom action keys

• Modify the "actionKeysSub.keyDefs" resource.
To modify this resource, follow the procedure in "To modify the debugger's
graphical interface resources."
The "actionKeysSub.keyDefs" resource defines a list of paired strings. The
first string defines the text that should appear on the action key pushbutton.
The second string defines the command that should be sent to the command
line area and executed when the action key is pushed.
A pair of parentheses (with no spaces, that is "()") can be used in the
command definition to indicate that text from the entry buffer should replace
the parentheses when the command is executed.
Action keys that use the entry buffer should always include the entry buffer
symbol, "( )", in the action key label as a visual cue to remind you to place
information in the entry buffer before clicking the action key.
Shell commands can be executed by using the Debugger Host_Shell command.
Also, command files can be executed by using the File Command command.
Finally, an empty action ("") means to repeat the previous operation, whether
it came from a pull-down, a dialog, a pop-up, or another action key.
Example
