2. Key Remap


Z and I Emulator for Web (ZIEWeb) users can map a single key or a key combined with Shift, Ctrl, or Alt to some action in session configuration. The action can be to display a character, to execute a host function and so on.

The above mapping can now be used by ZIEWeb-Client users. If user types the sequence of mapped keystrokes, it performs the mapped action.

Custom function KeyRemap


Z and I Emulator for Web Client allows users to add, update, and delete a custom function for keyremap, where a user can map any key to that user-defined custom function. The custom data can be a combination of mnemonic keyword along with a string (for example, logout[enter]). User can also give Unicode encoding, for example, unicode: \u0028 for the special character ‘(‘.

  1. Add:
    • The user can define name and data for the custom function and then map a key to that function.
    •  The data is processed when the mapped key is pressed.
  2. Update:
    • Click the row of a specific custom function to view and update the name and data in their appropriate input fields for that function.
    • The user is not allowed to give duplicate name and data for a custom function.
  3. Delete:
    • The user can delete a custom function by selecting that specific function.

Unicode Encoding:


For Unicode encoding in custom function, only the following are supported:

a) Alphabets: A-Z, a-z

b) Numbers: 0-9

c) Special characters:!, ', (,), *, ?, @, ^, ;, <, >, ~

Note: All the unsupported Unicode is displayed as ”?” in the ZIEWeb-Client green screen.
