70 Chapter 2 Command Descriptions
previous_key=key
The key and text displayed on the custom menu next to the
“previous_label” that allows a user to return to the previous menu when
they have previously selected a submenu. This option is only shown and
only valid when the displayed menu is an active submenu such that
pressing this key will return the user to the original menu. The default is
“R.“ The key is case insensitive; therefore, the keys “A” and “a“ will act
the same.
previous_label=string
The text displayed on the custom menu next to the “previous_key” that
allows a user to return to the previous menu when the current menu is a
submenu that was displayed when issuing a submenu command on
another menu. If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.
The default is “Return to Previous Menu.”
presskey_label=string
The text displayed after a user has finished an issued command. After the
user selects an option that executes a command, the command output
will be displayed until the command completes. At this time, processing
will be stopped and this text will be shown to inform the user to press any
key in order to continue. After a key is pressed, the custom menu will
once again be shown. If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double
quotes. The default is “Press any key to continue...”
Options for Adding/Updating Custom Menus
range=1-32
The index of the custom menu to create or update. A maximum of 32
menus can be created, and these menus are assigned index values 1 to
32. The index is solely used as a way to identify a custom menu by direct
index without having to type in a complete name. When creating a new
menu, both the “range” and the “newname” options must be specified.
When updating a custom menu, only the “range” or the “name” option
must be specified, but not both.
name=string
A short descriptive string used to identify a menu. The string is used only
to identify a menu when linking a user or other custom menu to this menu.
This option can be used rather than the “range” option when updating a
custom menu. If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.
newname=string
A short descriptive string used to identify a menu. This option is used to
create a new menu or to change the name of an existing menu. When a
new menu is being created, this option must be specified along with the
“range” option.
When an existing menu name is being changed, this option must be
specified along with either “range” or “name,” where “name” is the current
name of the menu.
If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.
