Sample Macros for ZDE, 01 June 90 by Carson Wilson.
|
||
|
||
This file describes the sample macros contained in SAMPKEY.ZDK
|
||
and SAMPKEY.ZDT. As distributed, ZDE contains no Macro Key
|
||
definitions. I have included the SAMPKEY.* files both to give
|
||
you an idea of the versatility available through ZDE's macro
|
||
capability and to provide you with some useful choresaving
|
||
routines. Many of the sample Macros come directly from the ZDE
|
||
Manual, and illustrate the use of conditional testing, jumps, and
|
||
control key entry from within Macros. In addition to being
|
||
educational, most of these "sample" Macros do useful work. While
|
||
you may (and should) define ZDE's Macros to do anything you wish
|
||
(or nothing, if you wish), I think you may find one or more of
|
||
these samples useful just as they are.
|
||
|
||
To install the macros in SAMPKEY.ZDK (or any .ZDK file) into your
|
||
copy of ZDE, just type "ZDENSTAL ZDE SAMPKEY.ZDK." Then exit
|
||
ZDENSTAL with the <S>ave option. This produces a working copy of
|
||
ZDE.COM with Macro Keys 0 to 9 as defined in the .ZDK file.
|
||
|
||
To alter or replace the Macros in SAMPKEY.ZDK, first edit the
|
||
text file SAMPKEY.ZDT with ZDE. Then translate SAMPKEY.ZDT into
|
||
a new macro file with the command "ZDKCOM SAMPKEY.ZDT." You can
|
||
also translate .ZDK files back into .ZDT files if you wish; see
|
||
ZDKCOM.DOC for more information.
|
||
|
||
