Note: VuGen generates meaningful TE_wait_text functions when recording VT
type terminals only. Do not use automatic TE_wait_text function generation when
recording block-mode (IBM) terminals.
Keyboard Recording Timeout
When you type text into a terminal emulator while recording, VuGen monitors the
text input. After each keystroke, VuGen waits up to a specified amount of time for
the next key stroke. If there is no subsequent keystroke within the specified time,
VuGen assumes that the command is complete. VuGen then generates and inserts
the appropriate TE_type function into the Vuser script.
To set the maximum amount of time that VuGen waits between successive
keystrokes, enter an amount in the "Keyboard record timeout" box.
By default, VuGen waits a maximum of 5 seconds between successive keystrokes
before generating the appropriate TE_type function.
