COMMAND LIST

The following tables present all the Macro and Key Commands
supported by MC.COM and M2T.COM. In addition to the listed commands,
MPE4WP also recognizes the following commands: {ALT x}, where "x" is
any "legal" character, {KEY MACRO n}, where "n" is the number of a KEY
MACRO, {VAR n}, where "n" is a number from 0 to 9, {MACRO CMD n},
where "n" is the number of a Macro Command, and {KEY CMD n}, where "n"
is the number of a Key Command. Please note that the asterisked
commands will not be recognized by WordPerfect 5.0. If you
incorporate any of these commands in your source code, the WordPerfect
5.0 Macro Editor will interpret the command as {UNKNOWN}. You should
also be aware that WordPerfect Corporation adds commands from time to
time. For example, the command {OTHERWISE} was added with the
August 20, 1990 release of WordPerfect 5.1. If you attempt to use
{OTHERWISE} with an earlier release, the WordPerfect 5.1 Macro Editor
will interpret the command as {UNKNOWN}. If you have any question as
to whether your version of WordPerfect supports a particular command,
retrieve COMMANDS.WPM into your Macro Editor. If the notation
{UNKNOWN} appears where your command ought to be, you know it is not
supported. If the command is supported it will appear in its
customary bold form in the Macro Editor. See the section entitled
"Anti-Obsolescence" in the MPE4WP User Reference Guide, for
information about using the notation {MACRO CMD n} and {KEY CMD n} to
add new Macro and Key Commands that are not in these tables.

Key Commands

The following Key Commands are supported by MC and M2T. At first
glance, you may believe that some of the ^-key commands have been
omitted. The omitted keys have other functions. For example, there
is no {^H}. In its stead, WordPerfect substitutes {Home}. Some of the
Key Commands, such as {Shft F11}, {Shft F12}, and the other shifted
F11 and F12 keys, have no discernible use. Others like {Compose},
{INVALID}, and {Keyboard} are not supported when incorporated in
WordPerfect macros. They are presented here for completeness. If you
can find a use for these orphan commands, MC and M2T are prepared to
assist.

{^A} {Graphics}
{^B} {Help}
{^C} {Home-Home-Left}
{^D} {Home}
{^E} {HPg}
{^F} {Indent}
{^G} {INVALID}
{^M} *{Item Down}
{^N} *{Item Left}
{^O} *{Item Right}
{^P} *{Item Up}
{^Q} {Keyboard}
{^R} {L/R Indent}
{^S} {Left Mar Rel}
{^T} {Left}
{^U} ****{List}
{^V} {Macro Define}

* Asterisked Key Commands are not available in WordPerfect 5.0

** The Key Command {Columns/Tables} appears in WordPerfect 5.0 as
{Math/Columns}.

*** The Key Command {End Field} appears in WordPerfect 5.0 as
{Merge R}.

**** The Key Command {List} appears in WordPerfect 5.0 as {List
Files}.

***** {Macro Commands} is technically a Macro Command, not a Key
Command. It is listed with the Key Commands because it is accessed
by pressing a key (CTRL-PgUp).

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
