CETerm, whenever possible, Meta key colors are synonymous with physical keys on these
devices.
Meta keys can be assigned to hardware keys in much the same way that other key mapping is
configured in CETerm. After Meta keys are assigned to hardware keys, they can be used
in other key re-mapping assignments. For example, after the Blue Meta key is assigned, you
may create the mapping where Blue + '1' switches to Session 1, etc.
Defining Meta Keys
Meta keys are defined in the Edit Keymap tab of the key remapping. Simply select the "Meta"
keymap. There is one basic restriction for the Meta keymap. There may only be one key for
each Meta state. Typically this means a key for each of Red, Green, and Blue.
When defining (or editing) a Meta key, there are three special attributes:
"!ASC" - This checkbox means "Ignore Alt, Shift and Control". When checked, the Meta
key will be effective regardless of the Alt, Shift, or Control states. Usually this option is
checked to allow the most flexible key combinations.
"Toggle" - This checkbox means to "toggle the state" of a Meta key each time the key is
pressed. Otherwise, the state is set when pressed and cleared when the key is released.
Usually, this option is checked. Some keyboards require the "key up" action of a key
before another key can be pressed. For these keyboards, the "toggle" option *must* be
checked, otherwise no other key can ever "see" the Meta state.
"One-shot" - This checkbox means that the Meta state is reset after the next key is
pressed, whether or not the next key was part of a Meta key translation. If this option is
unchecked, the Meta state remains set until the meta key is pressed again. Usually, this
option is checked.
Using Meta Keys for Remapping
When Meta keys are available for key remapping, you will see corresponding checkboxes on the
―New Key‖ / "Edit Key" dialogs. Meta state flags may also appear in the "Flags" column of the
keymap. The flags meanings are:
V - Virtual Key remap
A - Alt state
C - Ctrl state
S - Shift state
R - Red meta state
G - Green meta state
B - Blue meta state
Y - Yellow meta state
To require a Meta state for a key, simply check the corresponding checkbox.
NOTE: You should define the corresponding Meta key in the Meta keymap before creating
key remap bindings that use the Meta key.
