To change the application displayed in the pane with no fixed application:

• If the cursor is not currently in the pane, press <CTRL> <RIGHT> or

<LEFT> arrow to move the cursor into the appropriate screen.

• Press <CTRL> <ALT><0> to display the startup “Display Menu”.

• Type the letter corresponding to the new application you want to display.

6.18.2 Custom Characters (Unicode™)

Note: The Unicode ™ characters created here are accessible only within the

Tekterm application. To create Unicode ™ characters that are accessible

system-wide, refer to “Unicode Mapping” on page 103.

The “Custom Characters” parameter allows you to create Unicode™ characters not

available directly from the keyboard, including accented characters. Unicode is a

trademark of The Unicode Consortium. You can create up to 20 Unicode™

characters that will be stored in a pop-up menu accessible from any application.

6.18.2.1 Creating A Unicode™ Character

Note: You can create a Unicode™ character by pressing and holding down

the <ALT> while typing the decimal value that represents the Unicode™

character you want to use. However, you will need to press <ALT> and

retype the decimal value each time you want to use the special character.

The advantage to creating special characters using the “Custom Chars”

parameters is that the characters you create in the customer characters

table are saved in a pop-up window that is accessible from any application.

• In the ‘Parameters’ menu, highlight “View Manager” and press <F1>.

• Highlight “Custom Chars”, and press <F1> to display the custom

characters table.

• Position the cursor on the Fonts at the top of the table.
