MAILHELP.HLB  —  SHOW  KEY
    Displays the key definitions created by the DEFINE/KEY command.

    Format

      SHOW KEY  [key-name]

1  –  Parameter

 key-name

    Specifies the name of the key for which you want to display the
    definition. See the DEFINE/KEY command for a list of the valid
    key names.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /ALL

    Displays all of the key definitions in the specified state or
    states. You do not need to specify a key name.

2.2    /BRIEF

    Displays the key definition only. If you do not specify /BRIEF,
    all of the qualifiers associated with the key definition are
    displayed by default.

2.3    /DIRECTORY

    Displays the names of all the states for which keys have been
    defined. If you have not defined any keys, SHOW KEY/DIRECTORY
    displays the DEFAULT and GOLD states (for the default and GOLD
    key definitions on the Mail keypad).

2.4    /STATE

       /STATE=(state,state, . . . )

    Specifies the name of a state for which the specified key
    definitions are to be displayed. If you specify two or more
    state names, separate them with commas and enclose the list in
    parentheses.

    States are used to increase the number of key definitions
    available on your terminal. The same key can be assigned any
    number of definitions as long as each definition is associated
    with a different state.

3  –  Examples

    1.MAIL> SHOW KEY PF4

      DEFAULT keypad definitions:
        PF4 = "read" (echo, terminate)

      This example shows how to use the SHOW KEY command to display
      the definition of the PF4 key. When the PF4 key was defined,
      two qualifiers (/ECHO and /TERMINATE) were specified.

    2.MAIL> SHOW KEY/ALL
      DEFAULT keypad definitions:
        PF1 = "directory" (echo, state = FOLDER)
        PF2 = "HELP" (echo, terminate)
        PF3 = "select" (echo, terminate)
        PF4 = "read" (echo, terminate)
        PF5 = "NEXT" (echo, terminate)

      This example shows how to use the SHOW KEY command to display
      all of the key definitions that you have created with the
      DEFINE/KEY command.
