NOTE
Windows 9X defines keys differently and the cursor key ↑ is cannot be used with Windows 9X
HyperTerminals. You may use Ctrl_P instead.
When you use previously-used commands, note the following points:
l Previously-used commands are saved exactly as they are entered by users. For example, if
a user enters an incomplete command, the saved command is also incomplete.
l A command is saved the first time it is run and subsequent runnings are not saved. If a
command is entered in different forms or with different parameters, each entry is considered
to be a different command.
For example, if the display ip routing-table command is run several times, only one
previously-used command is saved. If the display current-configuration command and
the display ip routing-table command are run, two previously-used commands are saved.
2.4 Shortcut Keys
System or user-defined shortcut keys make it easier to enter commands.
2.4.1 Classifying Shortcut Keys
There are two types of shortcut keys: system shortcut keys and user-defined shortcut keys.
Familiarize yourself with shortcut keys so as to use them correctly.
The shortcut keys in the system are classified into the following types:
l User-defined shortcut keys: CTRL_G, CTRL_L, CTRL_O, and CTRL_U. The user can
assign these shortcut keys to any commands. When a shortcut key is pressed, the system
automatically runs the assigned command. For details about defining the shortcut keys, see
2.4.2 Defining Shortcut Keys.
l System-defined shortcut keys: The system defines a number of shortcut keys with fixed
functions. Table 2-7 lists the system-defined shortcut keys.
