- KEEPER Steven Holzner

- ______________________________________________________
-
- Purpose: Stores and displays the last ten commands
- entered for immediate reexecution without
- retyping.
-
- Format: KEEPER (loads memory-resident program)
- <Ctrl-N> (toggles window display)
-
- Remarks: KEEPER can store command lines of up to 50
- characters each in length. After loading,
- normally via your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, and
- pressing Ctrl-N (the default trigger key; see
- Option 1), the last 10 command lines are
- shown in a window in the upper right-hand
- corner of the display. If you wish to
- execute one of the commands shown, move to
- its line with the Up Arrow and Down Arrow
- keys; the line currently selected blinks.
- Pressing Ctrl-N again will reissue a blinking
- command or, if no stored command line has
- been selected, will return the display to
- normal.
-
- Notes:
-
- 1. KEEPER is not compatible with a number
- of application programs (e.g., XyWrite)
- that take over the keyboard interrupts.
-
-
- Option 1: The default trigger key is Ctrl-N. Should
- this be inconvenient, you can use the
- KEEPER.BAS program to recreate KEEPER.COM
- with a different trigger key. From the DOS
- prompt simply enter
-
- BASIC KEEPER
-
- and the program will prompt you for your
- choice of trigger key. After the KEEPER.COM
- file is created in this way, it is a regular
- DOS command and is not run under BASIC.
