- VERSION LOG
- BLACKBEARD KEY COMPILER
-
- version remarks
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
- 7.30 New C compiler. Fix to menu bug (not apparent).
-
- 6.51 Version numbers match BB version to some degree. This
- version "really" works!
-
- 6.45 Almost fixed key compiler again. Close, but no cigar.
-
- 1.3 Almost fixed, but nooooo!
-
- 1.2 This version was developed with new "C" compiler. A
- "bug" in the C compiler (*s1++ == *s2++) made it so that
- it didn't quite work!
-
- 1.1 First version. I believe it works with older versions
- of Blackbeard.
-
- Key binding File
-
- Blackbeard keeps a key binding file that will allow you to
- redefine the keystrokes: Blackbeard looks in the current
- subdirectory for a file named BB.KEY. This file defines the
- keyboard binding. If there is not a file named BB.KEY in the
- current subdirectory, Blackbeard will look in the BB DOS
- environment subdirectory for this file, if it is found it will
- use the filename supplied with the symbol. This will let you
- keep one key binding file and use Blackbeard from any disk or
- directory.
-
- See the OPTIONS/SETTINGS/KEYS menu for the read and save key
- bindings commands. These commands will request a filename and
- default to the current path and BB.KEY filename if none is
- given.
-
- KEY BINDING
-
- Every key on the keyboard (with a few exceptions such as ^)
- can be bound to function by creating a key binding file. This
- file is a text file with each line having a key name and a
- function name. BBKEYS.TXT is the default key binding file.
- BBC.EXE creates a compiled binding from this text file. To
- rebind keys do the following:
-
- 1. Edit the key binding file using Blackbeard.
- 2. Run the compiler with the following command.
-
- BBC BBKEYS.TXT NEW.KEY
-
- The first file is your text key binding file. The second
- file is the name of your compiled file.
-
- 3. Run Blackbeard and use this key file by naming it bb.key
- or reading it using the read bindings command. NOTE:
- running BBC in the DOS window and reading the key binding
- file allows you to dynamically rebind keys inside
- Blackbeard.
-
- Commands
