- In PCBASIC, the menus are created from resources.
-
- Other BASIC implementations use BASIC statements to create
-
- every item of every menu. With PCBASIC, the menus are
-
- defined with a resource compiler or editor. Of course the
-
- program can change any menu item with BASIC statements. The
-
- menu items can be enabled, disabled, inhibited, or marked
-
- with a check mark or any other character.
-
-
-
- PCBASIC can compile many programs written for the
-
- IBM‚Ñ¢ PC or compatibles. Those programs may use the function
-
- keys on those machines. BASICA statements such as these,
-
-
-
- KEY (1) ON : ON KEY(1) GOSUB 100
-
-
-
- are compiled without change. The function keys become menu
-
- items. They can be grouped into any number of menus, which
-
- can be arranged in any order on the menu bar.
