PCMKEY provides command stacking and alias translation for COMMAND.COM or other DOS command interpreters. Editing keys can be defined to suit the user.
SETUP:
To install PCMKEY, type PCMKEY at a command line prompt. The command line switches are:
/B = Set buffer size*
/C = Toggle underline cursor for insert /D = Disable alias translation
/E = Enable alias translation
/F = Define filename of command file
/I+ = Match case in search
/I- = Ignore case in search
/K = List key assignments
/L = List aliases
/M = Minimum command length to stack
/P = Define command separator*
/S = Set size of command stack*
/U = Uninstall
*Switches valid only at install time.REMARKS:
To create an alias, type the one-word name of the alias followed by the text to substitute for the alias. To assign a key, specify the key enclosed in square brackets followed by the text to insert or an editor command also enclosed in square brackets. The allowable editing commands are shown in the table below. Keys are specified by their lowercase letter (for alphabetic keys) or by their name. Below find a list of key names recognized by PCMKEY. Text aliases can include command line parameters and environment variables. Command line parameters are specified by %0 though %9; environment variables are enclosed in % signs. Multiple commands can be specified in an alias using the $t separator. If an alias is specified on the command line, the redirection and piping symbols >, <, and | can be specified using the $l, $g, and $b parameters.
These are the default assignments for the PCMKEY command line editor.
