This program is a DOS shell that hides the underlying operating
system from the uninitiated user, yet does not get in the way of
the expert user. The basic system consist of up to one hundred
Menu Files with ten menu pages each, and each page having ten
selections to choose from. You start a selection by pointing to
it with the cursor and pressing the ENTER key or by pressing the
number key associated with that selection. Each selection can
start a program, run a batch file, or execute any DOS command. A
selection can also have multiple steps which can include any or
all of the possibilities above. You can change menu pages by
pressing the F1 thru F10 keys to go directly to page 1 thru 10 or
use the PgUp and PgDn keys. Each page and each selection on each
page has a user definable description.
The slash key displays a 1-2-3 type menu at the top of the
screen. The choices from the menu include: Help, Add, Change,
Delete, Move, Page, Run, Exit, and Quit. If you select HELP you
are presented with another menu and screens that explain how to
use the Menu System. ADD, CHANGE, DELETE, and MOVE allow you to
alter the description and action taken by a Main Menu selection.
PAGE lets you change the description of a Page Index entry,
import pages, and delete pages. RUN allows you to execute any
program, DOS command, or batch file from within the Menu System.
EXIT returns you to the DOS prompt and QUIT erases the Top Menu
and puts you back in the Main Menu. Other commands in the Top
Menu allow you to set up macros, passwords, menu titles, change
colors and window borders, set mouse sensitivity, and blank the
menu screen after a set amount of time.
DOS Menu works by letting DOS run a batch file that contains the
commands from the selected menu entry. The batch file also has
the instructions to return to the menu when it's done so that no
part of DOS Menu needs to stay in memory. This makes all memory
available to your programs.
Hardware Requirements: IBM compatible computer, 256K RAM, Hard Disk,
any monochrome or color monitor.
