- # FreeCOM national customization file
- #
- # Language: English
- # Codepage: ASCII (7bit) / any codepage
- # Author: FreeCOM maintainer
- #
- # This file is used to generate all the messages that command.com
- # outputs. This file is the input to the fixstrs program, and it
- # outputs strings.h and strings.dat. The .DAT file is appended to
- # the command.exe file, and then renamed to command.com. The .H
- # file contains all the info for the program to retreive the
- # messages.
- #
- # The format of this file is simple. Blank lines and lines starting
- # with "#" are ignored.
- # Each message starts with a label name that will be used to refer to
- # the message in the program. A label starts with a colon ":".
- # A label has a version ID attached to it delimited by a hash sign, e.g.:
- # :TEXT_LABEL#1
- # This version is incremented each time the contents of the string has
- # undergo a larger change. The same language definition may contain the
- # same label up to one time, regardless of the version. FIXSTRS compares
- # both the label and the version ID and both must match.
- # A missing version is assumed as "#0".
- #
- # All lines after the label are the message until a line with a
- # single "." or "," in the first column. The difference is the
- # period (".") signifies that there will be a final carrage return when
- # the message is displayed, but a comma does not.
- #
- # The body may contain backslash escape sequences as known from C; there
- # are the usual \# (where '#' is a lowercase letter except 'x' or one of
- # "[]{}?"), \\ (to embed a backslash itself)
- # \x?? (where '??' are up to two hexadecimal digits), \0 (to embed a NUL
- # character), \, and \. (to specify a period or comma in the first column
- # of a line) and the single \ at the end of the line to suppress to append
- # a newline character. Note: There is NO octal sequence except the short \0!
- # There is a known bug (or feature): [ignore the very first hash mark]
- #:TEXT_LABEL#2
- #
- #\
- #,
- # Although the first data line appends the newline, the second does not,
- # though the comma removes the newline from the first line.
-
- # Defining prompts
- # Some prompts may cause an user interaction. Those ones should be in sync
- # with the issued text. To define how to interprete a pressed key, they
- # are mapped into metakeys like that: [ignore first hash sign]
-
- ## Return value: a -> Yes; else -> No
- #:PROMPT_YES_NO#1
- #YyNn\n\r{CBREAK}
- #aabb b b b
- # (Yes/No) ? \
- #.
-
- # All strings, which label start with "PROMPT_", are parsed as prompts.
- # The first two lines of the body are special; the first one enumerates all
- # valid keys, the second one assigns arbitary metakeys. Metakeys may
- # range from 'a' through 'z'; spaces are ignored; everything else cause
- # an error. The comment preceeding the prompt definition associates the
- # metakeys with their meaning.
- # The remaining lines of the body contain the text to be displayed.
- #
- # Above example defines a native Yes/No prompt with a space behind the question
- # mark and no appended newline.
- # The metakey 'a' means "User answered with 'Yes'" and 'b' means no.
- # The keys 'Y' and 'y' are mapped to metakey 'a' (aka Yes) and the keys
- # 'N', 'n', Enter and ^Break are mapped to metakey 'b' (aka No).
- # The spaces between the 'b's in the second line had been inserted to
- # align them with the corresponding keys of the first line, hence in order
- # to enhance readibility of the association between the pressed keys and their
- # mapping into a metakey.
- #
- # The first line (pressed keys) has to enumerate the ASCII value as returned
- # by DOS or BIOS (INT-10); special keys normally expressed with ASCII code zero,
- # but a non-zero scancode are NOT supported; this limit includes for instance
- # the function keys F1 through F12 and the cursor keys and it is not possible
- # to differ between the number pad and normal keys.
- # The keys may be enumerated by their ASCII character, by a backslash sequence,
- # or a symbolic name enclosed in curly brackets (see FIXSTRS.C "symkeys[]"
- # array about the supported symnames).
