Looking at the Keyboard Parameter Files

The key_101.key file defines the Enhanced 101-key keyboard. Each line in the keyboard parameter file defines a single key. This key definition consists of two required parameters and the MAP parameter, which is optional. The following list briefly describes these parameters. See the Command and Keyword Reference Guide for details about parameter syntax.

KEY

Specifies the operation being defined (for example, A, PF1, QUIT)

SCAN

Specifies the location of the key on the keyboard

MAP

Specifies the types of windows in which this operation applies. By default, the operation applies to both function and terminal emulator windows.
