  • Stuffkey

    From metalhead@21:1/113 to All on Thu Feb 13 00:17:17 2020
    I need to write a Stuffkey MPL to stuff the Left-Arrow key. I used to have an MPL for this years ago, but I can't find it. I spent hours trying to find the ascii code for the left-arrow key, but can't find it. Maybe there isn't one?

    My MPL is like this:

    Begin
    Stuffkey (#017);
    End.

    ..but I know that 017 isn't the right code for left-arrow.

    This is all so I can reverse the default for the yes/no lightbars so Yes is
    th default instead of no. (And I'm sure I will use it in a dozen other places down the road.) This is still the best way to accomplish that, right?

    No. You can end your string with PIPE-Y or PIPE-N to set the default to the next yes/no question.

    Nope, you need to just simply do a menu option before you have the prompt of:

    Command: GT (display line of text)
    Data: "PIPE-N" where pipe is the pipe character
    this is to set the next input to no default. -Y for yes.

    Or if you're using MPL/MPY, just use the getyn("String", True/False)

    Cheers,

    Let me save you some headache ;)

    <pipe> +
    -N - Forces the next Yes/No prompt to default to a No answer
    -Y - Forces the next Yes/No prompt to default to a Yes answer


    Just toss a <pipe>-N or <pipe>-Y at the end of the prompt that you want to change the default to!

    You can also stuffkey but this is a better way!
