Commands

Every Ada-ASSURED command has a name, an optional menu location, and zero or more keybindings. Whenever a command is introduced in the text, its name, menu location (if any), and primary keybindings (if any) are given for all supported windowing systems. For example:

exit (menu: File/Exit   X: ^C   NT: Ctrl+Q)

When all supported windowing systems use the same keybinding, no distinctions are made. For example:

change-view (menu: View/Change View   key: F3)

Whenever you are directed to ``invoke'' a command, you may do so in any of several different ways, depending on your taste:

• Name.

• Menu selection.

• Keybinding.

Striking the TAB key advances keyboard focus from the object pane to the command pane, where you can enter the name of the command to be executed. You need not enter the complete name. A non-ambiguous prefix is sufficient. When you strike RETURN, the command will be executed.

A sequence of descending menus is denoted in the text with slashes, e.g., Tools/Shell/Shell Command.

The primary keybinding of a command (if any) appears in its menu entry (if any).
