Selection of an error message in the VT220 window is not sufficient to access the
Overlay Enhancer help. Unlike the Overlay Passthru application, which displays online
Help when you double-click the error message, the VT220 Help requires that you first
click to select the error message, and then select Error Message in the Help drop-down
menu. This then displays Help for the selected error message.
Keyboard mappings
VT220 uses standard keyboard mappings, which when incorporated into a terminal
session, match the appropriate VT keys and actions. These default mappings, as shown
in the following tables, allow you to run a terminal emulation session using the
appropriate keys on a standard 101- or 102-key keyboard.
For example, if you are using VT220 to run Meridian Mail, the Meridian Mail softkeys
(which appear at the bottom of the menus and screens) correspond to the appropriate
function keys on your keyboard. The Meridian Mail softkeys correspond to the function
keys F6 through F10 on a standard 101- or 102-key keyboard. Therefore, in a Meridian
Mail session, you press F6 to select Softkey 1, F7 to select Softkey 2, and so on. For
more information on the Meridian Mail softkeys, refer to the .Meridian Mail system
administration guide (553-7001-302).
Table 16 through Table 18 list the keyboard mappings for VT220 on standard 101- and
102-key keyboards.
