Control key and clicking the mouse
pointer on the key name on the display (assuming default mouse
configuration).
Hotspots are supported in ALL terminal emulation modes. A set of
default keywords is provided for each mode. These keywords
relate to key functions specific to the emulation. For example, in
VT500 mode you can click on the word

memory by assigning the
