PORT Print or port a ThinkTank outline
Command key: P
Command prefix: No
Location: Main Command Menu
You can use the PORT command to print an outline, trans—
fer information from one outline to another, back up outlines,
and send outlines to another ThinkTank user. PORT is more of
a process than it is a command. ThinkTank leads you through
the menus and prompts in which you specify which information
is transferred where and in what form. This entry provides an
overview of the process; see the listing under each option for
further details.
PORT operates on the bar cursor outline -- the bar cursor
headline and all material beneath it. The first step in port-
ing is to move the bar cursor to the top of the outline you
want to port.
When you select PORT, ThinkTank displays the PORT DEVICE
Menu, from which you select where to port. The options are:
* PRINTER: Select this option to print an outline.
(Command key P)
* TEXTFILE: Select this option to transfer (copy), an
outline to a text file or a text file into an
outline. If you want to transfer part of one
outline into another, you must use a text file as an
intermediary. (Command key T)
* ESCAPE:Cancels the PORT command and returns to Top
Level. (Command key ESC)
If you select PORT/TEITFILE, you can choose whether to
port material into or out of your current outline with the
PORT DIRECTION Menu. The options are:
