- Title: ASAP set file for use with Laptops that don't have
- a numeric keypad
- Author: Larry Skutchan
-
- The purpose of the LAPTOP.SET file is to give users of laptops
- without a separate numeric keypad access to ASAP's keypad
- functions. To use the LAPTOP.SET file, copy it to ASAP.SET. A
- command like the following will do the trick:
-
- copy laptop.set asap.set
-
- This command copies LAPTOP.SET to ASAP.SET. ASAP.SET, as you'll
- recall from the documentation is a set file that gets used when
- you're at the DOS prompt. The LAPTOP.SET file provides several
- user defined functions to give you the access enjoyed by users with
- numeric keypads. Note that if you have a laptop or notebook
- computer that contains a "FN" key that gives you a keypad by re-
- mapping keys on the main keyboard, it is much better to use that
- method than to use LAPTOP.SET.
-
