HOW THE MENUS WORK



    1. Press the Alt key followed by the first letter of the menu you
       want.  For example, to display the Print Menu, press Alt-P; to
       display the Display Menu, press Alt-D.

    2. Press the F10 key.  This will display the File Menu.  You can
       choose an option from the File Menu in two ways:

       a) You can point to the option you want with the up and down
          arrow keys and then press Enter.
       b) You can press the first letter of the option you want.

       To use menus other than the File Menu, press the left and right
       arrow keys to move to a different menu.  This is also a good way
       to familiarize yourself with all the different menu choices
       available.

                                  Remember:
           YOU CAN ALWAYS PRESS THE ESC KEY TO CANCEL WHAT YOU ARE
                              CURRENTLY DOING.
       If you are in a menu, pressing the Esc key will cancel that
       menu.

    3. Press the appropriate shortcut keystroke and bypass the menus
       entirely.  A single keystroke, enclosed within parentheses, is
       listed to the right of many menu options; press this to choose
       the corresponding option.  For example, to the right of the
       first option on the Edit Menu, Find String, you'll see (^F).
       This means that you can press ^F (Ctrl-F) to immediately execute
       the Find String option without using the menus at all.

       This method is designed for advanced users who want to speed up
       the operation of PC-OUTLINE.  You will notice that every menu
       option does not have a shortcut keystroke listed.  This is
       because there is a limited number of shortcut keystroke
       combinations available.  If you want some menu options to have
       shortcut keystrokes that don't already have them, or if you want
       to change some of the existing shortcuts, you can define your
       own shortcut keystrokes with the Key Definition option on the
       Advanced Menu.  There is more about this option in the printed
       manual.

    4. Try these methods now, and, remember, if you get stuck, press
       Esc.
