Synopsis

setkeycodes scancode keycode

System administration command. Assign a keycode event to the specified keyboard scancode. The kernel matches these to its own keycodes. Scancodes in the range of 1–88 are hardwired in the kernel, but the remaining scancodes can be assigned to keycodes in the range of 1–127. Use getkeycodes to see current assignments. Use showkey to discover what scancode a key is sending.
