Command history key (up arrow)
 
I need the command history key changed (the up arrow). Now started using zmud and have a history of 8 years using Pueblo, which has the key as Tab :) So can it be done?

Thanks

You can't macro on the TAB key at all, but otherwise what you want done is possible:

Keys you can't single-key macro on
TAB
CAPS LOCK
SHIFT (either of them)
CTRL (either of them)
ESC
ENTER (either of them, if you have the numberpad)
0/) (this is a bug, already in the reporter database and waiting for Zugg to look at)
PAUSE/BREAK
PRNT SCREEN

NOTE: some keys do not execute even if you macro them--the SCROLL/NUM LOCK keys and the INS/DEL/HOME/END/PGUP/PGDN keys. In addition, if any of those keys have special properties in ZMud or in your OS (ie, SCROLL LOCK will toggle the scrollback feature and NUM LOCK will toggle the behavior of the number pad) these special properties will still function even though the macro will not.

keys you can't use with CTRL
ESC (cannot macro, this opens up the WinXP start menu)
TAB (cannot macro, seems to shift window focus throughout the open windows in ZMud)
CAPS LOCK (cannot macro, still sets caps mode)
SHIFT (can't macro, special keys don't do anything at all)
Windows (will show as CTRL-91 in the Settings Editor yet ZMud thinks it's a blank setting that must be renamed (and you can't rename it, so your only recourse is to delete the macro))
Context Menu (same as with the Windows key, will show up as CTRL-93)
SCROLL LOCK (same as Windows key, will show up as CTRL-CANC)
PRNT SCREEN (does nothing)
PAUSE/BREAK (same as Windows, shows up as CTRL-CANC)
INSERT (same as Windows, shows up as CTRL-CANC)
ENTER (does nothing)
NUM LOCK (does nothing)

The SHIFT-key, ALT-key, CTRL-ALT-key, and CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-key combos are the same as the CTRL-key combos
