XMDPW5.INF -- User's Data On XMDPW5.100
---------------------------------------

XMDPW5.100 is a Basic loader for the 100/102 which creates a machine
language Xmodem comm program, XMDPW5.CO.  It is based on XMD100 by JR
Chenoweth.  The basic usage can be found in XMDPW3.DOC. This file
discusses recent enhancements.

This version includes online access to Basic and Text with Hugo Ferreyra's
DIRACC (see DIRACC.DOC) integrated with this program.  Access to Text is
by hitting SHIFT-F7 and SHIFT-F6 takes you to Basic.  To return from Text,
use F8.  To return from Basic, do CALL HIMEM+19 -- assuming that XMDPW5.CO
is the lowest (or only) CO program loaded in memory.  This can be
 facilitated by defining a function key in Basic as follows:

        KEY6,"Term"+CHR$(24)+"CallXXXXX"+CHR$(13)

where XXXXX = TOP+19, top being the low address of the XMDPW5.CO.

This program also includes James Yi's original split screen code developed
for the Tandy 200.  It is very nice in CIS COnferences.  To toggle it, hit
SHIFT-F1 and send the CIS command /NOECHO while in the COnference.
But to toggle on the splitscreen mode, the label line MUST be on. To use
a label line function, first do SHIFT-F1 to toggle SS to off, then do your
thing, then use SHIFT-F1 to get SS back.  Other approaches work, but confuse.

Finally, this program includes a macro routine by Jon Diercks.  To use it,
go to TEXT and create a macro file named XMDMAC.DO.  Start each macro with a
GRPH or CODE character.  The macro will continue until another such
character is reached (i.e., macros can be multiple lines, as in Tony's macro
program). To send a macro, just hit the CODE or GRPH key (e.g., GRPH held 
while hitting the selected key) while on line.  Using DIRACC TEXT access, you
 can even edit your XMDMAC file while on line!

If you have a Hayes compatible modem (e.g., WorldPort 1200), the
companion program XMDHZ5.100 provides autodial and logon with a conventional
ADRS.DO file.  I have included the above Key 6 definition in XMDHZ5.100, a
Basic program.

One caution: If you use a function key to return to Term from Basic, make
sure you zero the definition if XMDPW5.CO is removed from use.  Otherwise,
hitting this key could be unfriendly!!
