Keyboard Configuration

This chapter describes how to configure TeemTalk for your particular
keyboard, remap key functions and compose special characters.

Introduction

TeemTalk maps the keyboard to be as near as possible to the terminal being emulated.
Illustrations showing the mapping of functions on Enhanced AT, Sun 5, Sun 4 and
HP 9000 keyboard layouts are shown in each terminal emulation chapter. You can
remap the keyboard as required and functions that may not be represented on the
keyboard (Compose Character for example) can be assigned to specific keys.

Specifying The Keyboard Type

The following resource and command line option is used to specify the type of
keyboard being used and therefore how TeemTalk maps functions to the keys. The
default setting depends on the platform that TeemTalk is running on.
