The BMAC utility provides an alternate method to create or edit keystroke
macros. The utility can be used to convert a .MAC file into a readable .M
file, and vice-versa. By editing the .M file, macros can be added, deleted,
or changed.
Simply enter the command "BMAC" to see the usage display. A "-C" option
will create a reference listing of the command strings which are recognized.
It is recommended that you begin by translating an existing .MAC file to be-
come familiar with the format of the .M file.
Spaces, Tabs and Newlines can be used freely to format the .M file in any
manner you desire. The '*' character can be used to indicate a comment;
all text on a line which follows the '*' will be ignored. To place the
'*' in a macro, use <*>. Up to 120 characters may be placed on a line.
NOTES:
------
Most characters simply represent themselves. Non-standard characters are
represented by their decimal value in angle brackets: <206>, for example.
Nulls (ASCII 0), LFs (ASCII 10), and CRs (ASCII 13) are not recognized in
this form.
Macros begin with a tag of the form <macro=A>. The Startup Macro follows
macro-Z in sequence, and is therefore tagged <macro=[>.
If you create macros which you think might benefit others, please send them
to us. We'll consider including them in future releases, or posting them
on BBSs.
