Keystroke Mappings
During console redirection, the remote terminal sends keystrokes to the local server. The local server
passes video back over this same link.
For keys that have an ASCII mapping, such as <A> and <Ctrl><A>, the remote sends the ASCII
character. For keys that do not have an ASCII mapping, such as <F1> and <Alt><A>, the remote
sends a string of characters, as dened in the tables below. The strings are based on the ANSI
terminal standard. Since the ANSI terminal standard does not dene all the keys on the standard
101 key U.S. keyboard, such as <F5> - <F12>, <Page Up>, and <Page Down>, mappings for these
keys are available.
<Alt> key combinations are created by sending the combination ^[} followed by the character to
be <Alt> modied. Once this Alt key combination is sent, the next keystroke sent is translated into
its <Alt>-key mapping. In other words, if is mapped to <Shift><F1>, then pressing <Shift><F1>
followed by ^[} sends <Alt><a> to the server.
The remote terminal can force a refresh of its video by sending ^[}.
Combinations outside of the ANSI mapping and not in the table below, such as <Ctrl><F1>, are not
supported.
