I just taught myself Uniterm macros, and I have one major question: What methods can be used to execute a file with macros in it? I only know of two so far: 1. Make it an auto-exec macro, which I don't want 2. Define a function key as %macro('filename') Is there any way to just pass a command to Uniterm, other than the ones already defined in the HELP menu? -- Kenny Zalewski Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, BARH B 107, Troy, NY, 12180-3590 kennyz@pawl.rpi.edu | Kenny_Zalewski@mts.rpi.edu | userfvct@rpitsmts.BITNET

Nope, that's about it. The obvious refinement is to define a function key
that prompts for the name of a macro file to execute, and executes it.
I suppose you should also be able to define a slot in the popup menu for it.
