====== SysOp Macros (Shift-F2) ======

There are 2 kinds of SysOp macros:

* **Key macros:** With this type of macro, it is possible to assign many keystrokes to a single key.  When the macro key is pressed, all keys specified will be passed to ProBoard, as if you typed them yourself.

                    Special chars: '|' is replaced by <Enter>
                                   '^' is replaced by <Esc>

* **Shell macros:** You can link any DOS command to a macro's hotkey.  A shell-definition MUST start with a '@'.  The string following the '@' should contain the DOS command to be executed. You can, of course, use the special shell options from menu function 7.

**Take this for an example:**

Suppose you have set 'Swapping' to 'No' in ProCFG. Should you, however, need ALL your system memory in
the shell, you could define the following macro: 

   @*C*N*Q*X (COMMAND.COM, NoLog, NoMsg, Swapping).

* **String macros:** You can display a line of text to the user with a hotkey. A string macro should start with a back quote (`) character. When the hotkey is pressed, the line of text will be sent to the user and displayed on your local screen.
