COMMAND LINE SYNTAX WHEN INVOKING JORJ.
The command at the DOS prompt is:
Jorj [path] [c] [/[key]] [nd] [fd] [h] [=EQUL]
The program can be invoked with any of the options shown in the
square brackets. They are separated by spaces except for `key'
which, if used, follows immediately after the slash (/).
Path: The default DIRECTORY for the database file is \JORJ.
If invoked without this flag, then the program will look for
the database file `JORJ.DAT' in the directory \JORJ. Therefore
if jorj.dat is located in D:\TOM\stuff, then the call would be:
JORJ D:\TOM\stuff. If the database file is stored in \JORJ of
the current drive then PATH is not needed.
C-Flag: The default value for screen color is BLUE. This may be changed
with the C-flag. The valid alternative colors are as follows:
B (Black) T (Tan) R (Red) and M (Monochrome). In the example
above, the screen would be blue. To change this to TAN, the
call would be: JORJ D:\TOM\stuff t
/Key: The program is made memory-resident by adding the / (slash) flag
when invoking JORJ. This flag may be followed by one or more
characters to define the key combination to use as a HotKey.
The slash alone will use the default HotKey as will any invalid
HotKey combination request. The default HotKey is the LeftShift
and Control key combination. Therefore the command: JORJ / is
the same as jorj /CL. The special key characters that may follow
the slash are: C A R and L. These have the following meanings:
C=<CNTRL> A=<ALT> R=<RightShift> L=<LeftShift>.
Restating the above example, if we used the command:
"JORJ D:\TOM\stuff t /", the result would be the same but the
program would be made memory-resident ane would be called up with
the default HotKey. To change the above example to use HotKey
<ALT><RightShift>, the call would be: JORJ D:\TOM\STUFF T /AR
Nd: The nd-flag has the form: `nx', where x is any number 1 to 9.
Use this flag to include a numeric digit in your HotKey.
To re-do the above example with the HotKey <ALT><CNTRL>9, the
command is: JORJ D:\TOM\STUFF T /AC N9
Fd: The fd-flag has the form: `fx', where x is any number 1 to 9.
Use this flag to include a function key in your HotKey. To
re-do the above example with the HotKey <ALT>f5, the command
would be: JORJ D:\TOM\STUFF T /A F5. To load Jorj as a TSR
with all defaults except for the HotKey, which you want as:
<CNTRL><ALT><LeftShift>f1, then use: JORJ /CAL f1.
H-Flag: Locate the display window high on the screen. Default is low.
EQUL: After JORJ is loaded as a TSR, you are returned to the DOS prompt.
This is not desirable if you load JORJ from a batch file and ad-
ditional commands follow the one that loads JORJ. In such sit-
uations, the EQUL option is useful. EQUL is the name of the
program or batch file to be executed after JORJ is made resident.
The name is preceded by an `=' sign. If we wished to have JORJ
memory-resident when we run the program DIALOG and do the calls
from the batch file ONCALL.BAT, then the example above becomes a
line in ONCALL.BAT that looks like this: JORJ /CAL f1 =DIALOG
This would invoke the DIALOG program and have JORJ Ram-resident.
Upon terminating the program DIALOG, JORJ would be removed from
memory, because its lifespan will be tied to that of DIALOG. To
do this at start-up, the final line of the Autoexec.bat file would
be: "ONCALL".
When JORJ is removed from memory, the current directory is
restored to the directory from which it was originally loaded.
You may therefore, wish to plant a CD command in the batch file
ahead of the line which loads JORJ as a TSR.
The HotKey combination must consist of at least two keys. Either
nd-flag or fd-flag may be used but not both. <Shift> Nx is not a
valid HotKey as that would make the corresponding shifted number
an unusable character.
