Default Key Usage
The following table lists the available functions, the key documented as
resulting in that function, the keystrokes required to obtain the
documented functions, and whether the keystroke can be configured.

Key
Left Shift Shift /l yes
Maphelp /m yes
Num Lock Num Lock /# yes
Page Up Page-Up /p yes
Page Down Page-Down /n yes
Refresh Refresh / | yes
Right Shift Shift /r yes
Scroll Lock Scroll /S yes
Tab Tab /t yes
NOTE
* Tab is the only case-sensitive keystroke. By default,
lower-case Tab (/t) provides Tab, with upper-case Tab (/T)
providing Backtab.
* The interrupt key can be defined as follows:
stty intr ^C
The keystrokes listed above are those set up by default for
your system. Those functions with a check mark (yes) in the
column headed Configurable can have their associated
keystroke mapped onto a keystroke of your choice. You can
also configure the meta character used, which is / by
default.
To change the defaults, create the file adiskey.map and
enter your choice of keys. On startup, your COBOL system
searches for adiskey.map in the current directory, then in
the directory specified by the COBDIR environment variable.
If it is not found the defaults are used. The following is
an example adiskey.map file:
* Micro Focus ADISKEY keyboard mapping file. Keystrokes are
* case insensitive except for TAB which uses Upper-Case-Tab
* for the Back-Tab function. An asterisk denotes a comment.
* This file shows the default keyboard mapping
