-
- Documentation for using the PC Magazine Slashbar program (Vol.6, No.10) to
- ease use and learning of ZCOMM, the powerful User Supported Communications
- Program from Omen Technology Inc.
-
- I admit that the great advantages in speed and power of ZCOMM are a bit
- more than I can handle. Command driven is great, once you've learned the
- commands. To make the use and learning easier, Slashbar has been modified
- to give a Lotus like bar menu structure to ZCOMM.
-
- This ARC contains:
- SLASHBAR.COM - To invoke the ZCOMM.BAR menus
- NOTE the hot key is the ` that's on the same key with
- the ~.
- ZCOMM.BAR - The menus
- ZCOMM.BDF - The menu definitions which you can modify
- MAKEBAR.COM - To convert your modified menu into ZCOMM.BAR
- PHODIR.T - ZCOMM's phone file set up for Slashbar, modify
- as needed
- PURSUIT.T - Phone file for using Slashbar with PC-Pursuit
- ???.T - Phone files for each PC-Pursuit city (as 201.T)
-
- What to do -
- On the default drive or in the same directory have ZCOMM.EXE, SLASHBAR.COM,
- ZCOMM.BAR, PHODIR.T, PURSUIT.T(optional for PCP), ???.T(optional for PCP),
- ZMANH.HLP(optional for help),and YHP.EXE(optional for help). To start
- type at the dos prompt:
- SLASHBAR ZCOMM.BAR /4800 <enter>
- ZCOMM <enter>
- When you get to the ZCOMM main prompt (+++c:) press the " ` " key and the
- menu should pop up. Use like a Lotus menu with arrow keys or the first
- letter of each choice.
-
- NOTE - Call the menu only from the main prompt! Results from the terminal
- function are iffy at best. Also, notice that the commands are typed into
- the prompt line. With this help you may find you don't need all this after
- all!
