               HOW TO CHANGE THE KEYBOARD KEYS
             Using the F Function Keys (F1 to F10)

        REDEFINING KEYS
        Redefining keys means changing the content of the key
        to represent something different from the function assigned
        to that key: For example, you can change the F1 function key
        (top row) to mean Copy, Format, or anything you like. The
        name of the key will still be F1, but you have changed the
        contents of F1 so that when you strike the F1 key it may Copy
        a file, Format a disk, or something else.

        Redefining keys is a good way  of putting commands in
        keys that you don't use and make them a super Speed-key that
        uses only one keystroke. Most Macros use the F keys first, then
        a combination then the Alt-F keys and Shift-F keys.

    
            EVERY KEY ON THE KEYBOARD HAS A CODE NUMBER

        By using the number (called a Scan Code) corresponding
        to the key you can change the content (assignment) of that
        key. The keyboard Scan Code for the F1 key is 0;59, F2 is 0;60,
        F3 is 0;61 and so forth to F10 which is 0;68.
        Table 1 is a list of redefinition code numbers (scan codes)
        to be used in redefining the F keys and combinations of F keys.
