- When designing menus etc using BRIEF, I like to use the line graphics
- to draw lines and add special symbols the the screens. If you add the
- following line to your BRIEF EXTEND.M file near the top where there
- are several AUTOLOAD(...) statements, then recompile the whole startup
- macro >CM STARTUP and compile the GRAPHICS.M file also contained in
- this BRIEF_GR.ARC file you too will have the capacity to draw line
- graphics from BRIEF. Please be aware that I use a 5151 keyboard so this
- may not be all that handy on the standard keyboard, but should still
- be a nice feature.
-
- So, add this next line near the top of the EXTENDED.M file:
-
- (autoload "graphics" "graphics" "slines" "dlines" "dslines"
- "sdlines" "numbers")
-
-
- The single and double line or other graphics are enabled on the keypad
- by pressing F10 and then answering the prompt as either SLINES, DLINES,
- DSLINES, SDLINES, or GRAPHICS. If NUMBERS is specified, the keypad is
- switched to the regular 0-9 numeric values and "." is the period/dot.
-
- SLINES key map:
- 7=┌ 8=┬ 9=┐ SLINES DLINES DSLINES SDLINES GRAPHICS
