- SLEDM.MNU is a Microsoft compatible mouse menu for use with the text
- editor, SLED.COM. SLED.COM is a good editor for programmers written by Sam
- Wilmott. You can find SLED.COM on many bulletin boards, or call XBN BBS at
- 617-380-7886. Install SLEDM.MNU with MENU.COM. At the DOS prompt type:
-
- MENU SLEDM.MNU
-
- J
- After installing the menu, then boot SLED.COM and the menu will be
- working. SLEDM.MNU provides most of the commands available in SLED.COM. The
- following are the actions of the mouse when you are in edit mode:
-
- mouse right - cursor right
- mouse left - cursor left
- mouse up - cursor up
- mouse down - cursor down
- left button - insert comment line
- right button - display menu selections
- both buttons - Toggle insert mode
-
- J
- Press the left mouse button anywhere and SLEDM.MNU will home the
- cursor on that line. Next SLEDM.MNU will insert a new line, and start the new
- line with a semi-colon and a few asterisks as a comment for programmers. I
- usually insert three of these comment lines, and enter the comment text on the
- middle line. Press the right button and a single line of selections will
- appear at the top of the screen with the following options:
-
- [EXIT] [DISK] [MARK] [CURSOR] [EDIT] [MISC]
-
-
- J
- Move the mouse left and right to highlight one of these selections.
- Press either mouse button to execute the highlighted selection. Use the
- [EXIT] selection to exit the selection process with no changes. All the other
- selections will bring up menus with options in their group. The other options
- will present the following commands:
-
-
- [DISK] [MARK] [CURSOR] [EDIT]
-
- CANCEL CANCEL START OF LINE CANCEL
- SAVE FILE MARK LINE END OF LINE DELETE LINE
- LOAD FILE MARK CHARACTER PAGE UP INSERT LINE
- QUIT FILE UNMARK PAGE DOWN JOIN LINES
- DIRECTORY COPY MARKED TOP OF SCREEN KILL TO LINE END
- FLIP FILE DELETE MARKED BOTTOM OF SCREEN SPLIT LINE
- NEW FILENAME MOVE MARKED TOP OF FILE
- QUIT FILE TOP MARK BOTTOM OF FILE
- BOTTOM MARK

- Each menu offers the [CANCEL] command to exit the mouse menu with no
- changes. All commands which act on the text in the editor, will do so at the
- point at which you left the cursor. For editing and cursor movement commands,
- place the cursor at the desired position first, before selecting a function
- from the mouse menus. For an explanation of the use of SLED's commands,
- please see the SLED-DOC that came in your SLED-COM archive. There are many
- commands that you may not ever use the mouse menu for. There are some
- commands that almost always need looking up on the help menu. For these
- commands, the mouse menu comes in handy. The most common use for the mouse
- menus is for marking and manipulating marked text.
