> ucb windows
> <answer the questions>
press function key 8 (F8) to exit
Files generated are :
<userapp> - nmake file
<userapp>.h - .h file

To compile
> nmake <userapp name>
To run
> win <userapp name>
*** Note ****
1. If you want UCB/WordPlan to generate code for dialog boxes you should
create only one dialog box per dialog file. Both the dialog box file
name and the name of the dialog box MUST be the same.
2. The Windows 3.0 script support only one MODELESS dialog box.
You can have as many MODAL dialog boxes as you want.
3. If you connect the same dialog box to multiple Menu items the
Windows 3.0 script will generate multiple dialog box procedures.
You will need to modify the code by removing the multiple procedures.
4. The Windows 3.0 script will generate in the <app>.h file
the following #defines.
Change these values to fit your dialog boxes.
/* --------------------------------------------- */
/* MODIFY these defines to fit your Dialog Boxes */
/* --------------------------------------------- */
#define ID_OK 1
#define ID_CANCEL 2
5. You should be able to use Microsoft C 5.1 but you must
make the necessary changes to the nmake file.
6. The Windows 3.0 script currently do not support the
generation of cascading sub menus.
