the formats. Instead you can enter the character’s
numeric equivalent (as defined by the American Stan-
dard Code for Information Interchange, or ASCII),
preceded by a slash (“/”). For example, since the
ASCII code for carriage return is 13, you would en-
ter /13. These characters will look strange on
your screen, but ThinkTank will send them correctly
if you enter them correctly. There is an ASCII con-
version table in Appendix D of this manual.
If you choose to review the format settings, you have
four choices for each:
* Press the right arrow key to move to the next format
setting, leaving the current setting as shown.
* Press the left arrow key to move to the previous for—
mat setting, leaving the current setting as shown.
* Press RETURN to indicate that you want to change the
current format setting. ThinkTank will display
another menu or prompt to find out what the new set-
ting should be.
* Press ESC to cancel or conclude the process of
changing format settings and move to the next step
in the PORT process.
If you change the format settings, ThinkTank displays the
EXIT SETTINGS Command Menu where you can choose to replace
the standard (default) format settings with your new ones. The op-
tions are:
* SAVE: Saves your new format settings on your THINK—
TANK PROGRAM DISK as the standard formats. (Command
key 5)
* NOSAVE: Does not save your new formats; they will
affect the current port only. The standard formats
will remain unchanged. (Command key N)
