KBDFILE SEXP
Function
Stuff the contents of a text file into the keyboard buffer for later
processing.
Syntax
KBDFILE file
file - A string expression with the filename whose contents should
be stuffed into the keyboard buffer.
Remarks
This statement allows you to feed a series of keystrokes to PCBoard as
though they were typed in by the user. This is useful when you need to
feed a series of commands to PCBoard one right after another and they
would add up to more than 256 characters (the maximum buffer size for
KBDSTUFF).
Examples
INTEGER retcode
SHOWOFF
OPENCAP "NEWFILES.LST",retcode
KBDSTUFF CHR(13)
DIR "N;S;A;NS"
CLOSECAP
SHOWON
SHELL TRUE,retcode,"PKZIP","-mex NEWFILES NEWFILES.LST"
KBDFILE "FLAGFILE.CMD"
