| Description |
defines the one-to-one keyboard input and output translation used by the "set-iomap" command. The data section of the file contains items that define the character translation. The dictionary level contains binary items which are compiled by the "set-iomap" program when used with the "c" option. The items in the dictionary have the same item-id's as the corresponding items in the data section, except that the (dictionary) items are preceded and followed by a "%".
Each item in the data section contains up to 33 attributes. Attribute 1 is used for comments. Attributes 2 through 33 contain data for the actual character translation. Each attribute consists of 8 characters (32 x 8 = 256, the number of characters in the ASCII set). ASCII characters 0 through 7 (in hex) are stored in attribute 2. Characters 8 through 16 are stored in attribute 3, and so on. The "set-iomap" program reads a specified item from the "iomap-file" and converts the ASCII characters into binary equivalents, then writes the item to the dictionary level of the "iomap-file". |

| Example |
set-iomap 1234 (c
Assuming that there was an item in the "iomap-file" that contained the following: item-id: 1234 Attr# Contents 1 this is just a comment 2 0001020304050607 3 08090a0b0c0d0e0f . . . 9 6061626364656667 10 68696a6b6c6d6e6f 11 7071727374757677 12 78797a7b7c7d7e7f . . . 33 f8f9fafbfcfdfeff This translates the characters "A" through "Z" into "a" through "z". All other characters remain the same. The resulting item, "%1234%" would then be written to the dictionary of the "iomap-file". |
