- This program will enable the user to easily enter graphics
- characters. HelpGraf is memory resident, so once installed, it will
- remain in memory until the system is rebooted.
- To activate or deactivate HelpGraf, enter Alt-NumLock. When
- HelpGraf is active, a menu will appear in the upper right-hand corner
- of the screen, consisting of an array of 11 extended-ASCII characters
- (graphics). Any of these characters may be accessed by using the
- numeric keypad key corresponding to the array position, with the Alt
- key. In other words, to access the graphics character in the lower
- left-hand corner of the menu, enter Alt-Num1, since Num1 is in the
- lower left-hand corner of the numeric keypad. (Note that Num1 refers to
- the 1/End key of the numeric keypad). The 11 keys used for character
- entry are: 0/Ins; ./Del; 1/End; 2/DownArrow; 3/PgDn; 4/LeftArrow; 5;
- 6/RightArrow; 7/Home; 8/UpArrow; and 9/PgUp. To scroll through
- different menus (there are 13 altogether), use Alt-Num+ and Alt-Num-.
- HelpGraf can be disabled entirely. When this is done, HelpGraf
- does no processing of keyboard inputs. This means that no HelpGraf key
- sequences will be recognized, including Alt-NumLock. This feature is
- provided for the situation where HelpGraf's key strokes conflict with
- those of another program.
