Creating A Script File
Command Descriptions
The commands that can be used in the script file are described in alphabetical order on
the following pages.
Conventions
Character Case
Each command description begins by showing the basic command followed by the
command format with any parameters. The command itself is shown in uppercase
though it is not case sensitive. Commands referred to within the main text, and
program examples, are generally shown in lowercase.
Parameters
If a command requires one or more parameters then an indication of the entry
required is enclosed in angle brackets. For example:
DIALOGUE <title> <caption> <variable>
Each parameter indicator must be substituted with the relevant information as
specified by the description for the command. So for the example above you could
enter the following:
DIALOGUE "Name" "Please enter your name here" name
If a command includes parameters that may be omitted, these will be enclosed by
square brackets. For example:
HCMP,<time> <string1> [<string2>...]
where <string2> is optional.
Do not include the angle or square brackets as part of the command unless you are
specifically told to do so in the command description.
Boolean Values
When a command requires a boolean value, this can be any of the following where
the value may be abbreviated to the UPPERCASE characters: 0 or 1, No or Yes,
False or True, OFF or ON.
