User File Editor Interface
""" "" "":<1
The User File Editor interface consists of menus and forms that allow you to enter information the system uses to configure User files.
The system uses special files called User File Templates to store entries that define the User File Editor's menus and forms (refer to User File Templates, in this section). The entries consist of keywords and parameters similar to those in User files.
The system software includes a default User File Template, [Sys]<Sys>UserFileTemplate.sys. You can modify the default template, and create other User File Templates. Changes in User File Template entries produce corresponding changes in the user interface.
Adapting the System to Your Requirements
If you accept the default User File Template when you activate the User File Editor, the interface includes three menus and six forms:
o Functions menu (refer to figure 2-5) o Modify Options menu (refer to figure 2-6) o Select Environment menu (refer to figure 2-7) o Executive Option Category form (refer to figure 2-8) o Mail Option Category form (refer to figure 2-9) o SignOn Option Category form (refer to figure 2-10) o Word Processor Option Category form (refer to
