shiftInCharacter is scoped to the current view.
current.shiftInCharacter is scoped to the current view.
default.shiftInCharacter is globally scoped.
install.shiftInCharacter is globally scoped.
query shiftInCharacter set shiftInCharacter { default | [ c ] } query current.shiftInCharacter query default.shiftInCharacter set default.shiftInCharacter { install | [ c ] } query install.shiftInCharacter
default | If you specify the default parameter for the set shiftInCharacter command, the current view will use the value of default.shiftInCharacter to display emulated SI control characters. |
c | If you specify the c parameter for the
set shiftInCharacter command, the character indicated by c
will be used for the current view.
If you specify the c parameter for the set default.shiftInCharacter
command, the character indicated by c will be used for all
views that have the shiftInCharacter parameter set to default.
If the c parameter is not a single character, it is interpreted as a decimal, hexadecimal, or octal integer, in one of the formats exemplified here: 110, 0x6E, 0X6e, #6e, 0156. The character used to display emulated SI controls will be the character represented by the value specified. |
install | If you specify the install parameter for the set default.shiftInCharacter command, all the views that have shiftInCharacter set to default will use the value of install.shiftInCharacter to display emulated SI control characters. |
If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set shiftInCharacter command, default is assumed. If you do not specify any of the parameters for the set default.shiftInCharacter command, install is assumed.
The query current.shiftInCharacter command returns the character used to display emulated SI control characters in the current view.
