- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Menus ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Context-sensitive help for menu choices.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.1. Phonebook Panel ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The Phonebook panel is a notebook that contains phonebook entries. You can
- create additional notebooks and use them as phonebook panels. New notebooks
- appear as additional tabbed panels.
-
- Double-clicking on an entry is the easiest way to begin a communications
- session. However, there are other techniques. For example, you can drag the
- entry and drop it on the Terminal tab, or you can use the File menu to begin a
- communications session.
-
- There are a series of index tabs at the top of each notebook panel. The All tab
- displays all entries in the current notebook sorted alphabetically. Selecting
- an individual tab letter displays a sheet with only those entries that have
- names beginning with that letter.
-
- If you can't see all the tabs, use the double-arrow buttons (to the left and
- right of the tabs) to scroll the tabs. These buttons don't change the selected
- tab. The left and right single-arrow buttons (in the upper-right corner of the
- top sheet of the notebook panel) enable you to move the selected tab one
- position at a time. The letter selected changes with each click of one of these
- buttons.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.2. Phonebook File Menu ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Use the Phonebook panel File menu for adding and deleting entries, beginning a
- communications session, and exiting HyperACCESS.
-
- The File menu is different for other panels.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.3. Phonebook File/New ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- New displays the Notebook Entry Type dialog. You select the type of entry you
- would like to create: a standard notebook entry or an enhanced notebook entry
- for accessing a PC running HyperACCESS Pro for OS/2 as a HyperHost. Regardless
- of the type of entry you select, New... displays the Description dialog. For a
- standard notebook entry, you enter an entry name, select or add an icon, and
- specify a phonebook and terminal emulator. For an enhanced phonebook entry, you
- do not specify an emulator.
-
- HyperACCESS then displays the Communications dialog, where you can change any
- of the default settings. This new entry uses settings from the New Entry
- Template.
-
- The contents of this dialog depend on the type of connection selected as the
- default when HyperACCESS was installed.
-
- Opening a new notebook entry or exiting HyperACCESS automatically saves your
- new notebook entry. HyperACCESS creates a filename based on the notebook entry
- name you entered in the Description dialog.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.4. Phonebook File/Open ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- When you select an entry, the grayed (unavailable) Open... becomes available.

- entry in the title bar and sets communications parameters to those of the
- entry. It does not connect to the communications port or dial the phone number.
-
- Note: You can open the New Entry Template and modify default settings from the
- Terminal panel. However, you can't connect to a remote computer or type in the
- Terminal panel when the New Entry Template is open (HyperACCESS displays a
- warning dialog if you attempt either of these actions).
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.5. Phonebook File/Save As ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Select Save as... from the File menu to save the selected notebook entry with a
- new name that you specify. It displays the Description dialog. When you enter a
- notebook entry name, select an icon, and click OK, HyperACCESS creates a
- notebook entry filename with an HAO extension, and displays the standard Save
- As dialog. This dialog enables you to change the filename, drive, and directory
- to use for the save.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.6. Phonebook File/Import ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Select Import... to import entry files that don't currently appear in the
- notebook. This menu choice displays the Import File browse dialog where you can
- select a drive, directory, and file. Unlike other browse dialogs, Import File
- enables you to make multiple selections from the file list. Once you select one
- or more notebook entry files, HyperACCESS displays the entry in the current
- notebook.
-
- Note: You can also perform an import by dragging a notebook entry file (usually
- with an HAO extension) from an OS/2 drive folder onto the notebook panel on
- which you want it to appear.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.7. Phonebook File/Delete ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

- and custom settings for the emulator; ASCII receiving and sending parameters;
- file transfer protocols; paths used for logon program, capture file, and log
- file; and default preferences for mouse behavior, fonts, colors and other
- settings.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.9. Phonebook File/Connect ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Connect opens the Terminal panel, makes a connection, and dials the phone
- number (if appropriate).
-
- You can specify the amount of time to wait for a carrier signal, number of and
- time between retries, and the volume of your modem speaker in the Dialing
- Details dialog. You access this dialog when applicable for the connection
- device (for example, a modem) by clicking the Dialing Details... button in the
- Communications properties sheet.
-
- When you select a notebook entry that doesn't have a phone number for
- connection devices that require one, HyperACCESS displays a warning dialog that
- tells you to enter a phone number and displays the Communications dialog.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.10. Phonebook File/Connect and Record Logon ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Connect and Record Logon records a logon sequence to use for future
- connections. This menu choice displays the Terminal panel and the Recording in
- Progress window, and dials the phone number (if one exists) or displays a
- warning and Communications dialogs to obtain the number. Once HyperACCESS
- establishes connection with the remote computer, you must manually log on to
- the system.
-
- HyperACCESS begins learning your keystrokes as soon as you're connected to the
- remote computer. When you complete all commands you want HyperACCESS to learn,

-
- The Options menu has two choices that control how the Message Pad behaves.
- These choices enable and configure chat mode and word wrap.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.148. Message Pad Options/Chat Mode ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The term chat mode means an interactive session with a remote system. It
- usually implies that another person is on the other end of the interaction, and
- that you want to carry on a "conversation" with that person.
-
- When selected (checked), the Chat mode menu choice enables chat mode. When chat
- mode is enabled, HyperACCESS sends the current Message Pad contents whenever
- you press the Enter key. After sending the Message Pad contents in chat mode,
- HyperACCESS clears the Message Pad window in preparation for your next message.
- To disable chat mode, unselect this menu choice.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.149. Message Pad Options/Word Wrap ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Word wrap occurs when a text editor or word processor breaks a line at the end
- of a word or at punctuation. The term word wrap usually implies that whole
- words move to the next line without hyphenation. HyperACCESS supports word wrap
- in the Message Pad window for readability and because some host systems have
- relatively short maximum line lengths (for example, MCI Mail has a maximum line
- length of 79 characters).
-
- When selected, Word wrap... displays the Word Wrap dialog. Use this dialog to
- select either automatic or manual line formatting. With automatic formatting
- selected, you can set the maximum line width using the edit field or its
- associated spin button. When you send text to the host from the Message Pad,
- HyperACCESS sends all visible line endings, whether typed manually by pressing
- Enter or inserted by automatic formatting.
-
- If you select manual formatting, HyperACCESS sends only line endings typed
- manually. If you leave the Wrap to fit Message Pad check box selected (the
- default), HyperACCESS word wraps lines too wide to fit the Message Pad window,
- but doesn't send corresponding line endings. If you unselect this check box,
- you will need to use the horizontal scroll bar to view lines wider than the
- Message Pad window.
-
- The Message Pad follows settings in the ASCII Sending properties sheet when
- sending text. If you need to change settings for line endings, wait for
- specific prompt characters, add delays, and so on, use the ASCII Sending
- properties sheet. (You can select ASCII sending... from the Terminal panel
- Properties menu.)
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2.150. Message Pad Send! ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Send! performs an immediate action, because it doesn't have any menu choices.
- Send! transmits the contents of Message Pad to the remote system. If necessary,
- HyperACCESS initiates a connection to the remote system before sending the
- Message Pad contents.
-
-

-
- The Lists panel provides a tool for viewing lists of remote systems. Lists can
- come from various sources.
-
- HyperACCESS comes with several lists. You can also use the Lists Panel for
- large lists, which you create, of HyperHost PCs you can connect to. For
- example, in a large corporation there might be a list that includes all
- workstations licensed to use HyperHost. It might be possible to export an
- appropriate, comma-delimited file from a corporate database of network users.
- If you are part of a TCP/IP network, you might be able to use an existing
- "hosts" file.
-
- In addition, you can download lists from various bulletin board systems, or
- export lists from contact programs and personal information managers (PIMs).
-
- These lists give you the option of calling thousands of systems, yet the space
- required to store the information is minimal compared to regular notebook
- entries.
-
- For you to use a list file, it must have a template. The list files that come
- with HyperACCESS have predefined templates. You can create templates for list
- files you download or create.

- used or displayed. Briefly, the menus are:
-
