  • Custome Message Variables

    From Coolmax@CRESCUE to All on Friday, January 28, 2005 22:45:00
    Hi All

    I've Add this code to my command shell

    cmdkey E
    TOGGLE_USER_MISC .19
    COMPARE_USER_MISC UM_EXTDESC
    if_true
    CLS
    print "\r\nExtended Descriptions Are Now ON\r\n"
    end_cmd
    end_if
    CLS
    print "\r\nExtended Descriptions Are Now OFF\r\n"
    end_cmd


    This toggles the extended list display on/off
    Is there a way to have THE ON/OFF Display in the .ASC file..
    So a custom message variable would be @EXTDISP@

    eg: EXTENDED DISPLAY: @EXTDISP@


    Thanks
    Coolmax

    Mmmmmmm. Maybe some sort of (a)EXEC:EXTDISP(a) with the EXTDISP module checking and outputting ON/OFF accordingly?

    Might work....

    ----8<----[extdisp.src]----8<----

    !INCLUDE userdefs.inc
    COMPARE_USER_MISC UM_EXTDESC
    IF_TRUE
    PRINT "ON"
    ELSE
    PRINT "OFF"
    END_IF

    ----8<---------------------8<----


    EXTENDED DISPLAY: @EXEC:EXTDISP@

    Yep -- works here now!

    I'm not really sure what you're asking. You could display a different .ASC file based on the results of the test (one for yes, and another no). <shrug>
