Setting Up Function Keys in ProComm
ProComm does not have function keys. However, escape sequences can be
assigned to number keys 0 through 9 by using the Keyboard Macro function. This
function is accessed by keying Alt+M. There is no method of displaying key
labels so they will have to be recorded elsewhere. See the ProComm manual for
further information.
