Using ETU 5.01 and above with Autokey Batch Files
The menu for ETU 5.01 and above changed from earlier versions. Some menu
options have been moved from the Main menu to a Utility menu, and most
all ETU commands have received new menu option numbers. (For example, the
FROM3XB command in version 5.0 is option 13. In earlier versions of ETU,
the FROM3XB command is option number 1.) These changes may cause some
existing Autokey batch files not to work properly.
If you have an Autokey batch file that uses an ETU command line character
string (like the one shown below), the batch file should work with ETU
5.01 just as it did with earlier versions.
user[FLX]
pgrmr[ENT]
to3xb qfname1(‘a:\sales.wed’) tofile(wedsales) recl(132)ENT]
[ETU]
If you use an Autokey batch file that calls an ETU command from the ETU
menu (like the example shown below), you must modify the batch file (due
to changes in the ETU menu). An example of how to modify a batch file is
shown below.
user[FLX]
pgrmr[FLX]
wsmenus[ENT]
16[ENT]
a:\sales.wed[FLX]
wedsales[FLX]
[ENT]
[ETU]
Modifying an Autokey Batch File – Example
The Autokey batch file in the example above calls option 16 from the ETU
menu. In versions of ETU prior to version 5.01, option 16 was the menu
option for the TO3XB command. Because of changes to the ETU menu, the
TO3XB command is now menu option 4.
To modify the Autokey batch file in the above example, change line 4 so
that it reads 4[FLX] instead of 16[FLX]. Use any text editor or word
processor to change the batch file. This change enables the Autokey batch
file to be compatible with versions of ETU later than 5.0.
