19.8.12 Map Keys to THRU, @, FULL
This setting allows the THRU, @ and FULL keys to be mapped to different keys on the keyboard. This is
useful in some countries where the normal mappings (>, @ and #) are not easy to select. To set this
setting, simply press the 3 keys you wish for the functions followed by ENTER.
