==== Modified F4 Launcher for SSH ====
The default ''F4'' key binding utilizes a rather stagnant handler that allows no customization of the ''xterm'' that its SSH invocation is launched in. \\
This is an example of how a custom handler can be used to have the ''F4'' key prompt for a host name to connect to, and then launch with an alternate command. \\

This handler function conforms to what the ''mod_query.query()'' LUA function in notion expects to invoke, and simply constructs the actually command + args to use in a simple ''ioncore.exec()'' call:
<code>
function handler_xssh( mplex, str)
    sCmd = "xssh " .. str
    return ioncore.exec(sCmd)
end
</code>
 
This is the modified key binding line that would go into ''cfg_notioncore.lua'':
<code>kpress(ALTMETA.."F4", "mod_query.query(_,'Host: ',nil,handler_xssh,nil,nil)"),</code>
