I would like to be able to program theand function keys to enter the following commands at the DOS prompt: -------- execute batch file called "CLR.BAT" -------- execute batch file called "HELP.BAT" - execute batch file called "HOME.BAT" - execute program called "MENU.EXE" I think that this should be possible using ANSI.SYS commands, but have not been able to find information on how to do so. I have also tried the ShareWare program "SETKEY", but it doesn't handle the and function keys, has problems with other TSR software, and won't relinquish the programmed function keys to application software. Also, I would appreciate recommendations of a good reference for using the ANSI.SYS driver. Something written in english, not Anglo-MSIBM. -- Mark Medici - via FidoNet node 1:107/330 UUCP: ...!rutgers!rubbs1!Mark.Medici ARPA: Mark.Medici@rubbs1.FIDONET.ORG \...!rutgers!rubbs1!Mark.Medici
