For anyone not too familiar with menu_rext, this might help a little. The simplest pointer environment boot program starts with these lines:
100 TK2_EXT 110 LRESPR FLP1_PTR_GEN 120 LRESPR FLP1_WMAN 130 LRESPR FLP1_HOT_REXT 140 LRESPR FLP1_MENU_REXT 150 REMark add any other lrespr'ed fiels here, before the HOT_GO 900 HOT_GO A simple boot program like this will run most of the pointer environment programs around, needing only the addition of any extra LRESPR lines individual programs might need for their own specific files. Menu_Rext itself is a commercial file from Jochen Merz (also sometimes called QMenu when you buy the complete package from Jochen). It provides ready made menus such as a file selection menu for pointer driven programs. It's supplied with many commercial programs (look for a file called menu_rext on the disk) but can't normally be supplied with free programs as a royalty is usually payable for its inclusion. If you are using SMSQ/E (e.g. on a Q60) you won't need the ptr_gen, wman and hot_rext as they are already built into SMSQ/E. -- Dilwyn Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: "Malcolm Cadman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2006 6:16 PM Subject: Re: [ql-users] QHelp In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Ralf Reköndt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes >Hmm, Qlib_run in an "FI_" directory?
