SlickEdit User Guide

Keyboard Options
OPTIONS
Keyboard options (Tools > Options > Keyboard) pertain to use of the keyboard and mouse, and include
options for setting the emulation you want to use and creating custom key bindings.
Keyboard option categories are:
• Emulation
• Key Bindings
• Redefine Common Keys
• Advanced
Emulation Options
Emulation options (Tools > Options > Keyboard > Emulation) are shown below. Use these options to
specify the editor's emulation mode and to restore default key bindings. Be sure to save your custom
bindings before switching emulations. This can be done by exporting (click Key Bindings in the Options
tree) or by using the prompt that is displayed when you switch emulations. See Emulations for more
information about these settings.
Key Binding Options
Key binding options are shown below (Tools > Options > Keyboard > Key Bindings). From here, you
can view, create, and manage key binding associations for SlickEdit® commands and user-recorded
macros. You can also import, export, or save a chart of your key bindings. See Managing Bindings for
more information.
