Configure a function key to select a ring menu option. In addition to the function keys F1 - F32, a number of other special keys may be used (listed below).
The function key is only active while the program is awaiting option selection from a ring menu. Pressing it at other times has no effect. It remains configured until the program terminates, unless reconfigured for some other purpose by another on command, or disabled by means of the clearkey statement.
