- Long description:
-
- File - PROMENU3.ZIP
-
- PROmenu is a DOS menu system which is based on the batch file language of DOS.
- PROmenu uses Menu data files to store the batch commands required to run the
- Menu options. This is a well-tried method of creating a friendly user interface
- to DOS and other programs are available to carry out the same task. However,
- PROmenu has the following advantages:
-
- 1) Menu data file editing is carried out using a friendly user interface.
-
- 2) Any number of menus may be used. Each menu data file can hold up to
- 10 menus with 9 options on each and it is possible to create a
- hierarchical menu structure utilising an unlimited number of menu data
- files.
-
- 3) Information can be displayed and input requested from the user in the form
- of text or pick lists.
-
- 4) Any option from any menu may be password protected.
-
- 5) User definable help screens.
-
- 6) All the user has to do is type in the commands he would have used to
- run the routine from DOS, and these are stored in a data file.
-
- 7) All menu data files are encrypted and may only be changed using the
- EDITMENU program.
-
- 8) A screen saving routine is included to prevent the menu image becoming
- burnt on the screen.
-
- 9) Up to 5 timed events can be set for each menu data file. When PROmenu
- is running it is constantly checking to see if it is time to run a timed
- event.
