ALTKEY

Syntax: ALTKEY character$ {,string$ }
     or ALTKEY character$
     or ALTKEY
Location: Toolkit II

This command defines a key macro which will be typed into the computer when you press the <ALT> key at the same time as the <character$> key. If more than one string follows the definition, a (line feed) character is inserted between each string.

ALTKEY without any parameters deletes all previously defined ALTKEYs, whereas ALTKEY character$ will just kill the specified definition.

Aline feed will not be appended to the final string unless you add a nul string to the definition.

Example:
ALTKEY "a","flp1_"

NOTE 1:
If character$ is an upper case letter, then you will need to press <ALT><SHIFT> and the <key> (or <ALT><key> in CAPSLOCK) to call the macro.

NOTE 2:
<ALT><ENTER> is last line recall

WARNING:
If you have Hotkey System II loaded, then ALTKEY will not have any effect until you use HOT_GO

CROSS-REFERENCE:
FORCE_TYPE and STAMP allow programs to access the keyboard, KEY defines macros on function keys.
