The key definition file associates commonly used NCL commands
with keys on the keypad. Use the define/key command to create
the definition.
NCL uses the default file name SYS$LOGIN:NCL$KEYDEF.INIT unless
you have defined an alternative file use the NCL$KEYDEF logical.
The SYS$EXAMPLES:SETUP_NCL_KEYPAD.COM command file creates files
that allow you to execute commonly used NCL commands using one or
two keystrokes on the keypad. This command file should be executed
from the system account. It works in a cluster environment, but
only for those roots on a single system disk and only for those
nodes booted into the cluster at the time you execute the command
file.
$ @sys$examples:setup_ncl_keypad
This command file creates Keypad definitions files for NCL
to be used with the HP DECnet-Plus for OpenVMS products. It
creates files in SYS$MANAGER: and SYS$HELP:. All files begin with
NCL$KEYDEF. A copy of this file will be made in SYS$UPDATE:
In a cluster environment, NCL scripts are created in SYS$SPECIFIC:
directories for each node on this system disk.
This file may be copied to any system running HP DECnet-Plus
for OpenVMS.
Note: Please add
"$ DEFINE/SYSTEM NCL$KEYDEF SYS$MANAGER:NCL$KEYDEF.INIT"
to your OpenVMS startup procedure.
