alias and funckey
To execute commands in Allegro you need to go through a series of commands. For example to add a board out line, you click on Add then line then you select the respective class and subclass. It is possible that you can use the special keys to acheive same function. By default Allegro provides a small set of alternate way of these function using keyboard. For example Control + F5 is used for Display Color/Visibility function.
The good news is that you can define your own keys and function. This is done using two ways. Alias and funckey.
Alias
You can use the alias command to remap the keyboard function keys to a command or series of commands. You can also define the class and subclass separated by a semicolon. Examples:
You can use the alias command to remap the keyboard function keys to a command or series of commands. You can also define the class and subclass separated by a semicolon. Examples:
alias F4 'add line'
alias F5 'add line ; class board geometry ; subclass Outline'
In the above example, pressing the F5 key will add a line and will select the Board Geometry -> Outline.
funckey
funckey was added in later versions of the Allegro. Using the funckey command you can map a command or series of commands separated by a semicolon.
Examples:
Here is the real world example where ct will add a connect on top layer while the cb will add a connect on bottom layer
funckey ct 'add connect; class Etch ; subclass Top'
funckey cb 'add connect; class Etch ; subclass Bottom'
Notice that doint it this way, you will loose the alias and funckey when you restart your Allegro. You may like to explore the skill to define it permanently.
