Configure Terminal Buttons
The Terminal menu has a ‘Configure terminal buttons F2’ command which generates a
terminal buttons configuration window.
This allows you to add buttons to the base of the Terminal window and assign a keyboard
shortcut to each button added, depending upon where it appears in the list order. This
facility enables a group of commonly used commands to be sent to a drive(s) by clicking a
single button in the Terminal window or pressing a Shift/Function key combination from the
keyboard.
