- -- PARAMETER PASSING
-
- The Nifty Menu system is able pass along user-specified parameters to the
- programs and batch files it executes. To indicate that you want Nifty to
- ask for a parameter, simply place a "?" at the end of the instruction line
- containing a program or batch file path/name. Example:
-
- D>DIR ?
-
- This line tells Nifty that it should execute the DIR command whenever "D" is
- pressed. Before it does so, however, it will ask the user for the parameter(s)
- to be passed to the DIR command. If the user indicated the parameter, "*.EXE",
- then Nifty would execute this command: "DIR *.EXE".
