.Sh NAME
.Nm mset
.Nd retrieve
.Tn ASCII
to
.Tn IBM
3270 keyboard map
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm mset
.Op Fl picky
.Op Fl shell
.Op Ar keyboardname
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
retrieves mapping information
for the
.Tn ASCII
keyboard to
.Tn IBM
3270 terminal
special functions.
Normally, these mappings are found
in
.Pa /usr/share/misc/map3270
(see
.Xr map3270  5  ) .
This information is used by the
.Ic tn3270
command (see
.Xr tn3270  1  ) .
.Pp
The default
.Nm
output can be used to store the mapping information in the process environment
in order to avoid scanning
.Pa map3270
each time
.Ic tn3270
is invoked.
To do this, place the following command in your
.Pa .login
file:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
set noglob; setenv MAP3270 "\(gamset\(ga"; unset noglob
.Ed
.Pp
If the
.Ar keyboardname
argument is not supplied,
.Nm
attempts to determine the name of the keyboard the user is using,
by checking the
.Ev KEYBD
environment variable.
If the
.Ev KEYBD
environment variable is not set, then
.Nm
uses the user's terminal type from the environment variable
.Ev TERM
as the keyboard name.
Normally,
.Nm
then uses the file
.Xr map3270 5
to find the keyboard mapping for that terminal.
However, if the environment variable
.Ev MAP3270
exists and contains the entry for the specified keyboard, then that
definition is used.
If the value of
.Ev MAP3270
begins with a slash (`/') then it is assumed to be the full pathname
of an alternative mapping file and that file is searched first.
In any case, if the mapping for the keyboard is not found in
the environment, nor in an alternative map file, nor in the standard map file,
then the same search is performed for an entry for a keyboard with the name
.Ar unknown  .
If that search also fails,
then a default mapping
is used.
.Pp
The arguments to
.Nm
are:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Fl picky
When processing the various
.Pa map3270
entries (for the user's keyboard,
and all those encountered before the one for the user's keyboard),
.Nm
normally will not complain about entries for unknown functions (like
.Dq PFX1 ) ;
the
.Fl picky
argument causes
.Nm
to issue warning messages about these unknown entries.
.It Fl shell
If the
.Pa map3270
entry is longer than the shell's 1024 environmental variable
length limit, the default
.Nm
output cannot be used to store the mapping information in the process
environment to avoid scanning
.Pa map3270
each time
.Ic tn3270
is invoked.
The
.Fl shell
argument causes
.Nm
to generate shell commands to set the environmental variables
.Ev MAP3270  ,
.Ev MAP3270A ,
and so on, breaking up the entry to fit within the shell environmental
variable length limit.
To set these variables, place the following command in your
.Pa .login
file:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
mset -shell > tmp ; source tmp ; /bin/rm tmp
.Ed
.It Ar keyboardname
When searching for the
.Pa map3270
entry that matches the user's keyboard,
.Nm
will use
.Ar keyboardname
instead of determining the keyboard name from the
.Ev KEYBD
or
.Ev TERM
environmental variables.
