2 – Qualifiers
2.1 /ALL
Deletes all key definitions in the specified state. If you do
not specify a state, all key definitions in the current state are
deleted. To specify one or more states, use /STATE=state-name.
2.2 /LOG
/LOG (default)
/NOLOG
Controls whether a message is displayed indicating that the
specified key definitions have been deleted. The /LOG qualifier
(which is the default) displays the message. The /NOLOG qualifier
suppresses the message.
2.3 /STATE
/STATE=(state-name [, . . . ])
/NOSTATE (default)
Selects one or more states for which a key definition is to be
deleted. The /STATE qualifier deletes key definitions for the
specified states. You can specify predefined key states, such as
DEFAULT and GOLD, or user-defined states. A state name can be any
appropriate alphanumeric string. The /NOSTATE qualifier deletes
the key definition for the current state only.
By default, the current key state is the DEFAULT state. The
current state can be changed with the SET KEY/STATE command,
or by pressing a key that causes a state change (a key that was
defined with DEFINE/KEY/LOCK_STATE/SET_STATE).
3 – Description
The DELETE/KEY command is like the DCL command DELETE/KEY.
Keypad mode must be enabled (SET MODE KEYPAD) before you can use
this command. Keypad mode is enabled by default.
