The Main›          Menu may be entered from the Atari Writer Plus (AW+) text›          editing screen,  AW+'s main menu, as well as the main menu›          from the Mail Merge or Spell Check subprograms.  The SM Main›          Menu provides 6 functions:››               (1) Disk Directory - by pressing any key 1-9 you can›          bring up a directory menu for that drive.  Loading as well as›          DOS functions can be performed on any file at the touch of a›          key.  The "*" key will display the last directory accessed›          (save drive, same path, and same mask).  It defaults to›          D1:*.*.››               (2) Keyboard Macro Editing - You can define most›          Shift-Control-keys to display any string of text when›          pressed.  Great for printer codes and frequently used words.›          Due to hardware limitations, the following Shift-Control keys›          cannot be used: J,K,L,;,+,*,Z,X,C,V,B.  See "Macro Feature"›          section for more information.››               (3) Reboot - pressing "B" will allow you to reboot the›          machine without turning the power off and back on.  After›          pressing "B", press and hold for a couple of seconds›          O P T I O N  to reboot without BASIC, S E L E C T  to reboot›          with BASIC, or any other key to abort back to the main menu.›          There is no further prompting, and if you haven't saved your›          file before pressing O P T I O N  or S E L E C T , the text›          in memory will be lost.  Note: If you are using a custom OS›          that reverses the use of the O P T I O N  key, you should›          press the opposite key for the function.››               (4) Exit to DOS - Pressing "X" will allow you to exit to›          DOS without rebooting.  Be sure to save your file before›          exiting though.  You will be prompted to press "Y" or "N".›          Pressing "Y" exit AW+ and exits to DOS (memory pointers and›          interrupt vectors are reset so SM is effectively disabled).›          Pressing "N" returns you the the Main Menu.››               (5) Return to AW+ - Pressing "R" returns you to AW+›          where you were before you pressed H E L P  or›          Shift-Control-ESC.››               (6) Screen Saver - Pressing "S" enables the Willy the›          Wonder Worm screen saver program.  He wanders aimlessly›          around the screen until you press a key, after which you will›          be returned to AW+ (not the Main Menu).›››››››››                  Atari Writer Plus Super Menu 1.00  -  Page 2›                               Usage Documentation››››                      T h e   D i r e c t o r y   M e n u ›››               The Directory Menu lets you wander through›          subdirectories, change drives, change directory mask, load›          files, and perform many DOS operations effortlessly.

Note:›          There is no prompting, upon pressing control-L, the file from›          disk will overwrite any text in memory.  You can issue this›          command even if you were in edit mode, MailMerge, or the›          SpellChecker.  In Mail Merger or SpellChecker you may here›          some bells since all of the modules do not behave equally to›          the pressing of illegal keys, and the routine was designed to›          work with all 3 modules.›››               "control-S" allows you save a file.  It is generally›          better to do this from with AW+, since a RETURN will save the›          file to the same name.  SM will not immediately save the›          file, instead it will return you to AW+ with the name that›          was highlighted displayed.  You may then hit RETURN to save,›          or edit the filename.  This is useful if you want to save the›          file under a new name, but don't want to type the drive and›          path names.  AW+ will always prompt you to type Y or N to›          overwrite an existing file.›››               "control-R" allows you to rename a file.  You can only›          change the filename portion.  Press "R" when the name you›          want to change is highlighted.  Enter the new name (in›          accordance with the rules of the DOS you are using.  A lone›          RETURN aborts the operation.  The directory will be re-read›          and displayed to verify the operation.›››               "M" allows you to change the directory mask.  For›          instance, changing it to "*.ASM" will only display files with›          an "ASM" extender.  After pressing M, you will be prompted›          for a mask.  Enter any legal file mask as is allowed by the›          DOS you are using.  A line RETURN defaults to "*.*".  The›          directory will be reread-read and displayed.  The Mask is›          preserved when changing drives.  You can always just press›          "M",RETURN to change to "*.*"›››               "V" allows you to a view the highlighted file.  All›          control characters will be displayed (including the header of›          an AW+ file).  An inverse ESC symbol will be displayed where›          a RETURN mark is and text will continue on the next line.›          Press an release SPACE to page through the file, or press "C"›          to have it displayed without pauses (continuous mode).

If you used "L", "U", or "D"›          and didn't reread directory, the file status may be›          incorrect.  Use "SPACE" to reread.›››               "control-W" writes out the current macro definitions.›          You will be prompted for the name - the highlighted file›          doesn't matter.  Enter a legal filename.  Note: the file will›          be saved in the current drive and path however even though›          you don't type them in.  Do not specify the drive or path.›          Switch to appropriate drive and path before pressing›          "control-W".›››               "control-R" reads macro definition from currently›          highlighted file.  The definitions are added to those in›          memory.  There currently is no way to completely deleted a›          definition other than to make it empty which uses 1 byte of›          memory.

With MyDos, enhanced density will work, but the›          other operations will be ignored, the sides/density will›          default to the last disk accessed.  Enhanced Density will not›          work with DOS 2.5 or any other DOS for that matter, DOS 2.5›          formating in Enhanced Density could be supported if there was›          sufficient request.  I am not sure if these if these would be›          ignored with SpartaDOS-Dos or not.

Loaded Macros add to (or replace›          if they use the same key) macros in memory.  Write Macros›          writes all Macros.  Memory is not reclaimed when macros are›          replaced or even redefined.  If you run out of memory, save›          your macros and reload the program (save any Text in memory›          though).  This restores any "lost" memory. ›››               Macros are fairly simple when just dealing with text but›          can be complex and time consuming to design when working with›          console keys that AW+ uses for most commands.

Example:  To go to the top›          of the file entering: SHIFT-SELECT, "T" will sometimes give a›          T instead of performing the operation.

Some other functions may need a delay, particularly›          when going to the main menu or back to the edit screen.  A›          plain delay SHIFT-CONTROL-D adds a delay.  Don't Forget you›          can enter the reverse key and caps key into macros.  To›          insure you are in lower case, use a SHIFT-CAPS followed by a›          normal CAPS, this switches to uppercase, and the toggles to›          lowercase.  If you want to write a macro that operates the›          main menu, start with an ESC followed by a delay, then the›          key.  It may also be necessary to add delays after keys that›          prompt you.  The built in Load and Save functions had to have›          delays in certain places, and I had to add others to work›          with the Mail Merge and Verify Spelling since all of them›          seem to react at different speeds and differently to illegal›          key presses.››               Console keys alone abort, enter, or backspace.
