;EXC Script Commands - Quick Reference
; Note: Brackets ([]) indicate an optional parameter and should not be
; included as part of the command. Quotes (""), where specified,
; are required to be entered as part of the parameter.
; BEEP Sound a short beep on speaker. Useful in debugging
; scripts.
; CASE ON The CASE commands enable case-sensitive (ON) or case-
; CASE OFF insensitive (OFF) compares by WAITFOR and SEARCH. The
; initial mode is CASE ON.
; CLEAR Clear the screen.
; CURSOR col row Move the cursor to the specified coordinates.
; DELAY n Wait n seconds
; FAST Reverses the effect of a previous SLOW command.
; GOTO label Unconditional branch to label.
; IFN label If condition set to N, go to label.
; IFY label If condition set to Y, go to label.
; INT9 Reverses the effect of a previous NOINT9 command.
; HIDEWIN Restore a window displayed with SHOWIN to it's
; original color attributes.
; KEY mnemonic [n] Push the key onto the keyboard stack. 'n' is the
; number of times you want the keycode inserted.
; LOCATE "string" Reads the screen until the string appears, then moves
; the cursor to the start of the string.
; LOOK "string" Test to see if the string was on the screen at the
; time the screen was last read. Screen reads occur
; during execution of READ, SEARCH, WAITSCR and WAITFOR
; commands. Sets "Y/N" condition.
; NOINT9 Stops initiating interrupt 9 when putting a key in
; the buffer. Used only if problems occur with key
; recognition or key order.
; ON n label Command will do nothing n times and on pass n+1, it
; will branch to label.
; PAUSE Causes the script to be paused as if Scroll Lock were
; pressed.
; QUIT [n] Halt processing the script file.
; End-of-file on the script file issues an automatic
; QUIT.
; If n is specified, that value (0-255) is returned
; as the DOS ERRORLEVEL. Otherwise, the return code
; of the spawned program is returned.
; READ Read the current screen contents.
; SCRMAX cols rows Specifies the largest screen size that will be used
; during execution. Used to allocate screen buffer.
; SEARCH "string" Read screen and test to see if the string is on the
; screen. Sets "Y/N" condition.
; SETWAIT nnn Wait nnn seconds before a WAITFOR or WAITSCR times
; out.
; SHOW attr "string" Display the string using the specified attribute.
; Displays at the location specified in SHOWAT.
; SHOWAT col row Specifies location for subsequent SHOW command
; strings to be displayed.
; SHOWIN attr Rewrite the current window text in the specified
; attribute.
; SLOW [n] Use only if problems occur in key recognition or
; key order. Mostly effective for slower CPUs. Slows
; key entry.
; TICK n Same as DELAY except n represents 1/18th of a second
; instead of a second.
; TIME hhmmss Pause execution of subsequent commands until the
;
; specified time of day.
; TIMEOUT label Branch to label when the next WAITFOR or WAITSCR
; timeout occurs.

; CR/LFs with specified mnemonic.
; WAITFOR [NOT] "string" Wait until the string appears on the screen. If NOT
; specified, wait until string is not on screen.
; WAITSCR Wait until anything changes on the screen.
; WINCOLS start end Limit screen reads and SHOWIN to the screen columns
; specified.
