- The main dialog box contains two list boxes named Group and Item. The
- items in the Item list will be a function of which Group is selected.
-
- The following is an explanatory list of the items for the main file
- windows and all dialog boxes.
-

- Like all AM dialog boxes, movement around the box is effected with the
- mouse or via the Tab and Shift+Tab keys. The Tab key moves in order
- through the main control clusters and the Shift+Tab key moves in
- reverse order. Cursor movement inside a cluster is accomplished via
- the Arrow keys and other keyboard cursor pad keys.
-
- Changing colors is accompished by selecting Group item and then
- selecting an item from the Item list. The foreground and background
- colors of the "Text Text Text" lines will change as a guide as you
- change the item's colors by setting the foreground and background
- boxes.
-
- When the colors of a Group have been set, you may check the visual
- effet of the new colors by pressing the "OK" button (or Enter key) to
- leave the color select dialog. Then select the window or dialog box
- of the window whose colors were just changed.
-
- The current color set may be saved to a disk file at any time. The
- program color set will be saved to a file named AMCOLOR.SET, which
- will be placed in the directory from which AM was launched. AM
- will look for the file named AMCOLOR.SET when executed and load it if
- found. You may also load the file from any directory and this permits
- changing the color set when desired by keeping different color set
- files in different directories.
-
- It is not feasible to individually tailor every one of the dialogs and
- windows which appear when running AM, so some of the items in the
- group list affect multiple windows/dialogs. The following list
- indicates which windows/dialogs are controlled by the group items.
- Any dialogs not specified here are controlled by the Archive Viewer
- dialog color settings.
