INTRODUCTION
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key is a keyboard macro utility for the Apple //gs, which can
|
|||
|
be used to automate the keyboard input for most programs which run on
|
|||
|
the //gs.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You install Diversi-Key permanently into the //gs expansion memory,
|
|||
|
where it stays available while you run other programs (such as
|
|||
|
Appleworks). Your other programs run normally, until you activate
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key by holding down the "option" key on the //gs keyboard.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While holding down the option key, the next keys you press are
|
|||
|
interpreted as a "Macro" call. When you call a macro, Diversi-Key
|
|||
|
takes over your keyboard, and rapidly types a pre-defined sequence of
|
|||
|
keystrokes for you. You'll find that Diversi-Key greatly increases
|
|||
|
the power and utility of your other programs.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you hold down the option key, your program will pause
|
|||
|
temporarily, and resume when you let the option key up. You can
|
|||
|
press the option key to stop the program any time, i.e. to read a
|
|||
|
screen message which is scrolling by. Whenever the option key is
|
|||
|
down, you will see an inverse "K" in the upper right corner of the
|
|||
|
text screen (when in text mode only).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key requires an Apple //gs with at least 512K. The Apple
|
|||
|
//gs comes with 256K, so you must buy a memory card with at least
|
|||
|
256K, which plugs into the //gs memory expansion slot.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
START WITH APPLEWORKS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you boot your Appleworks disk, if it says "ProDOS 1.1.1", then
|
|||
|
you should update the "PRODOS" file with a //gs version (ProDOS 1.2
|
|||
|
or later). Use the //gs system utility program to transfer the file
|
|||
|
named "PRODOS" from the Diversi-Key disk to your Appleworks disk,
|
|||
|
replacing the old "PRODOS". This gives the correct time and date
|
|||
|
stamping of your files, and allows Diversi-Key to function.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note: Don't transfer the file named "PRODOS" on the //gs system disk
|
|||
|
to any other disk. Use the "PRODOS" on the Diversi-Key disk.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key comes with built-in macros for use with Appleworks 2.0.
|
|||
|
To get started, boot the Diversi-Key disk and choose the menu option
|
|||
|
to install Diversi-Key. This also installs the Appleworks macros.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To verify that Diversi-Key is active, press the option key. An
|
|||
|
inverse "K" should appear in the upper right corner of the screen.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Now boot your Appleworks disk, and choose the options to start a new
|
|||
|
word processing file from scratch. Name the file "KEYMAC".
|
|||
|
Appleworks should be in the mode where what you type appears on the
|
|||
|
screen, as if you were going to type a letter.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While holding the option key down (inverse "K" appears), press
|
|||
|
the minus key, "-", on the KEYPAD, twice. Diversi-Key will now
|
|||
|
display all the built-in Appleworks macro definitions, typing them
|
|||
|
into a word processing file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you aren't in the right Appleworks mode to be able to type input,
|
|||
|
you may hear a lot of beeps, and the screen will go "crazy" as
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key continues typing. Don't panic! Hit the panic button.
|
|||
|
Press: OPEN-APPLE_CONTROL_DELETE (halts Diversi-Key any time)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Your "KEYMAC" file should begin like this:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[0001=<A>] |
|
|||
|
Appleworks Macros: May 15, 1987
|
|||
|
[0008=<left>][A-Repeat:020]{<tab>}[End-A]|
|
|||
|
Jump to start of line
|
|||
|
[0009=<tab>][A-Repeat:020]<tab>[End-A]|
|
|||
|
Jump to right margin
|
|||
|
[0010=<down>]<right>{f}ONP<ret><ret>|
|
|||
|
Find next page break
|
|||
|
.... more definitions follow
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You trigger a macro by holding the option key down, and pressing the
|
|||
|
key to the right of the first "=" sign. The first macro,
|
|||
|
option-ctrl-A, is just a comment, and does nothing.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To trigger the second macro, hold the option key down and press the
|
|||
|
left arrow key. The cursor will jump to the start of the line. The
|
|||
|
words under the macro tell you what the macro does.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
option-<tab> jumps to the right margin, for example.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Use Appleworks to print out the "KEYMAC" file, and look through all
|
|||
|
the macro options. One very useful macro is the date macro, which
|
|||
|
you trigger by pressing option-semi-colon. Its definition looks like
|
|||
|
this:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[0059=;][99.] [93.], 19[94.]|
|
|||
|
Date
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Don't be concerned with the number before the "=", or with the
|
|||
|
definition itself for now. Just look for the macro key, and read the
|
|||
|
description of what it does on the line below the definition.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Keep your "KEYMAC" printout handy as a reference. You may find the
|
|||
|
pre-defined macros are enough, in which case you can stop reading
|
|||
|
right here! Later, if you want to use the full power of Diversi-Key,
|
|||
|
you can study the rest of these instructions.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
USING PINPOINT:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Many Appleworks add-ons, such as Pinpoint, use the option key as a
|
|||
|
trigger. To use Diversi-Key with these programs, change the
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key "trigger" key before booting Appleworks, as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Boot the Diversi-Key disk and install Diversi-Key with the
|
|||
|
Appleworks macros.
|
|||
|
2. Holding the option key down, enter the number "42." on the
|
|||
|
keypad. That is, enter: "4", then "2", then ".", all on the KEYPAD.
|
|||
|
3. Now boot Appleworks, and use the option key to trigger Pinpoint as
|
|||
|
usual.
|
|||
|
4. You now trigger Diversi-Key by pressing the OPEN-APPLE key AND
|
|||
|
the OPTION key together.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note: Be sure you change the trigger key BEFORE booting Appleworks.
|
|||
|
Then, install Pinpoint before using Diversi-Key. If Pinpoint won't
|
|||
|
install, try re-booting Appleworks and don't use Diversi-Key until it
|
|||
|
Pinpoint is installed.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
DEFINING SIMPLE KEYBOARD MACROS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To define a macro, hold the option key down and press the "=" on the
|
|||
|
numeric KEYPAD. Then, press the key on the KEYBOARD which you want
|
|||
|
to define. Now, type the macro definition on the KEYBOARD. When
|
|||
|
you're through with your definition, press the KEYPAD <enter> key.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, to define the option-D key as a macro which types
|
|||
|
"Hello", enter the following keystrokes:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[option-keypad-=]D
|
|||
|
Hello<enter>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
More details on defining macros are described later.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
SAVING AND LOADING MACROS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After you define a macro, it is held in memory until you turn the
|
|||
|
machine off. To save it to disk, you must first enter BASIC. You
|
|||
|
can do this by booting the Diversi-Key disk, and choosing the "Exit
|
|||
|
to BASIC" option. Or, from the system disk, choose "BASIC.SYSTEM"
|
|||
|
from the launcher or desktop.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you enter BASIC, you will see the Applesoft prompt, ]. To save
|
|||
|
your macro file, hold the option key down and enter the following on
|
|||
|
the KEYPAD:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1.2.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You should see the word "BSAVE", and a prompt to enter a filename.
|
|||
|
Pick a name for your file, and enter it. Then, press return. The
|
|||
|
file will be saved to disk.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To install the new macros later, get to BASIC and enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BRUN filename (where filename is the name you entered when saving)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note: To get back to the launcher after entering BASIC, enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BYE

APPLE //E UPGRADE
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you upgrade your Apple //e with the new //gs motherboard, you
|
|||
|
won't have the full //gs numeric keypad. To simulate keypad keys on
|
|||
|
the //e upgrade, hold the open-apple and option(solid-apple) keys
|
|||
|
down together, and press one of the following:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Digits 0..9
|
|||
|
=/*+-.
|
|||
|
<delete> (same as keypad <clear>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
INTERRUPTS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key activates 60-cycle interrupts on the //gs. This may
|
|||
|
cause problems with some programs which read or write to a 5.25 drive
|
|||
|
without disabling the interrupt. In particular, Copy II+ versions
|
|||
|
before 7.4 will destroy 5.25 disks if you write on them with
|
|||
|
interrupts active (there is no problem with 3.5 drives). If you plan
|
|||
|
to use Copy II+ with 5.25 drives, be sure you get version 7.4 or
|
|||
|
greater.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This problem also shows up if you try to boot ProDOS from a 5.25
|
|||
|
drive using PR#6. To avoid the problem, boot with
|
|||
|
open-apple-ctrl-reset, or use special macro [10.] (described later).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The Diversi-Key disk contains a file named BOOTFIX which will update
|
|||
|
the boot tracks on a 5.25 ProDOS disk to correct this problem. Exit
|
|||
|
to BASIC and enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BRUN BOOTFIX
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Then, put in your 5.25 disk and press <space> to fix it.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
INSTALLATION
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key may be installed automatically from the menu when you
|
|||
|
boot the Diversi-Key disk. You only boot this disk once, at power
|
|||
|
on. The Diversi-Key program is actually a binary file named
|
|||
|
"DIVKEY". Diversi-Key may be installed under ProDOS or DOS 3.3 with:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BRUN DIVKEY
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Once Diversi-Key is installed, it stays in memory permanently until a
|
|||
|
power off re-boot. That is, Diversi-Key stays installed even if you
|
|||
|
reboot with open-apple-ctrl-reset.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ERRORS: When you BRUN DIVKEY, you will hear a "beep" if the
|
|||
|
installation was unsuccessful. The usual reason for this is that you
|
|||
|
tried to install Diversi-Key again, when it was already installed.
|
|||
|
You also get this error if you don't have a //gs memory expansion
|
|||
|
card, or if there is no memory available to install Diversi-Key. If
|
|||
|
this occurs, try installing Diversi-Key from a power-off boot.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note: To avoid the beep, POKE 0,0.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
NO RESPONSE? If Diversi-Key ever stops working, particularly after
|
|||
|
booting a new program, try pressing the "flush" key sequence:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
open-apple_control_delete (Flush key sequence)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The Diversi-Key disk contains a pre-defined set of macros in a file
|
|||
|
names "DIVMAC", which are installed when you boot the DIversi-Key
|
|||
|
disk. You can also install them from BASIC with:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BRUN DIVMAC
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The Diversi-Key program comes on a 5.25 ProDOS floppy disk. We
|
|||
|
recommend you boot this disk when you power on, to install
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key. You can then boot from the 3.5 drive with "PR#5".
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can also use the Apple //gs system utility program to transfer
|
|||
|
all of the Diversi-Key files to a newly formatted 3.5 inch disk.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
AUTOMATIC STARTUP
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can add Diversi-Key to any ProDOS disk, and have it install
|
|||
|
automatically when you boot that disk. Use menu option #2 on the
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key disk to do this (not available on the demo).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This option adds the DIVKEY and DIVMAC files to your disk. It then
|
|||
|
changes the name of the PRODOS file on your disk to OLDPRO, and
|
|||
|
changes the DIVKEY file to PRODOS. When your disk boots, it should
|
|||
|
execute these files:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
PRODOS (installs Diversi-Key)
|
|||
|
DIVMAC (installs macros)
|
|||
|
OLDPRO (starts up ProDOS 8 or 16)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To remove Diversi-Key from your disk, enter BASIC and type the
|
|||
|
following:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
DELETE DIVMAC
|
|||
|
DELETE PRODOS
|
|||
|
RENAME OLDPRO,PRODOS
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To put Diversi-Key back on the disk, use menu option #2. With the
|
|||
|
demo disk, you can transfer the files, DIVKEY, and DIVMAC, to your
|
|||
|
disk, and enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
RENAME PRODOS,OLDPRO
|
|||
|
RENAME DIVKEY,PRODOS
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
COLD REBOOT
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can remove Diversi-Key by turning the power switch off for 10
|
|||
|
seconds or so, but this will eventually wear out the switch. You can
|
|||
|
simulate a power-off re-boot as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Hold OPEN-APPLE_SHIFT_CONTROL keys down (3 keys).
|
|||
|
2. Press and release RESET key.
|
|||
|
3. Wait for 2 beeps.
|
|||
|
4. Release OPEN-APPLE_SHIFT_CONTROL keys.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This will remove Diversi-Key, and clear your Ramdisk (if any).

|
|||
|
CALLING MACROS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Macros in Diversi-Key are numbered from 1 to 9999. There are two
|
|||
|
different ways to call the same macro. You can call a macro by
|
|||
|
number by holding down the option key, and entering the macro number
|
|||
|
on the numeric KEYPAD. This is called a "Numeric Macro". You can
|
|||
|
also call a macro by holding the option key down, and pressing any
|
|||
|
keyboard key. This is called a "Keyboard Macro".
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
NUMERIC MACROS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To call a numeric macro, hold the option key down and type the macro
|
|||
|
number on the numeric keypad. The macro is triggered when you press
|
|||
|
the keypad <enter> key, or let up the option key. Press the keypad
|
|||
|
<clear> key if you make an error. Diversi-Key displays a Numeric
|
|||
|
macro as [nnnn], where nnnn is a number from 1 to 9999. Some Numeric
|
|||
|
macros are: [0124], [0001], [9047].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
KEYBOARD MACROS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Triggering a Numeric macro requires more than one keystroke, and
|
|||
|
numbers are hard to remember. To get around these problems, you may
|
|||
|
also trigger macros with single-keystrokes on the KEYBOARD. You do
|
|||
|
this by holding down the option key, and pressing any keyboard key,
|
|||
|
that is, any key not on the numeric keypad. The macro is triggered
|
|||
|
immediately when you hit the keyboard key. Be sure to let up the
|
|||
|
option key, to allow the program to continue after the macro is
|
|||
|
completed.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key displays a keyboard macro as: [k], where "k" is any
|
|||
|
keyboard key. Here are some keyboard macro examples: [N], [$], [1].
|
|||
|
Note that [1] is a keyboard macro triggered by pressing "1" on the
|
|||
|
keyboard. [0001] is a Numeric macro, triggered by pressing
|
|||
|
"1<enter>" on the numeric keypad.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
There are 96 possible keyboard macros, which correspond to Numeric
|
|||
|
macros numbered from 0 to 95. Each keyboard macro corresponds to its
|
|||
|
ASCII equivalent Numeric macro. For example, the "A" key is an ASCII
|
|||
|
65. Therefore [A] is the same as [0065].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note that lowercase keyboard macros are converted to uppercase. That
|
|||
|
is, [a] is the same as [A]. For keyboard keys with ASCII values from
|
|||
|
96 through 127, subtract ASCII 32 to find the Numeric equivalent
|
|||
|
(converts to lowercase).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Numeric macros [0096] to [0099] have no keyboard macro equivalent.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
REDEFINING THE KEYBOARD
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can re-define the entire keyboard by entering:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[xx/] where xx=0..99
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
That is, hold the option key down, enter a number from 0 to 99 on the
|
|||
|
numeric keypad, and press the numeric keypad "/" key.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you do this, the keyboard macros will now correspond to Numeric
|
|||
|
macros [xx00] to [xx95] instead of [0000] to [0095].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, when you enter [02/], then [A] triggers macro [0265]
|
|||
|
instead of macro [0065].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can use this feature when you switch programs, since your macro
|
|||
|
definitions will be very specific to each program. For example, you
|
|||
|
might enter [00/] for running Appleworks, and [01/] for programming
|
|||
|
in BASIC. Thus, you can keep up to 100 sets of keyboard macro
|
|||
|
definitions in memory at one time, in each 32K macro file.

SPECIAL MACROS
|

|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key contains 100 pre-defined "special" macros, which are
|
|||
|
always available, and cannot be modified. You call a special macro
|
|||
|
by holding the option key down, and entering a number from 1 to 99 on
|
|||
|
the numeric keypad. Then, hit the keypad "." to trigger the special
|
|||
|
macro (instead of <enter>). Special macros are displayed as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[nn.] where nn=0 to 99
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Special macro [00.] calls the "control panel". If you hold the
|
|||
|
option key down, and hit the keypad "." (without entering a number),
|
|||
|
the effect is the same as pressing OPEN-APPLE_CONTROL_ESCAPE.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Other special macros functions are described throughout these
|
|||
|
instructions. For a list of all special macros, see the reference
|
|||

|
|||
|
DEFINING A MACRO
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can define a new macro, or edit an existing macro definition at
|
|||
|
any time. To define a Numeric macro, enter the macro number on the
|
|||
|
keypad, followed by the keypad "=":
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[nnnn=] where nnnn=0..9999
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To define a keyboard macro, hold the option key down, press the
|
|||
|
keypad "=", followed by the keyboard key you want to define.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[=k] where k is any keyboard key
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you enter macro define mode, the current definition for this
|
|||
|
macro, if any, will appear on the top line of the screen. The macro
|
|||
|
definition begins with:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[nnnn=k] where nnnn is Numeric macro number you are defining, and k
|
|||
|
is its keyboard macro key equivalent (if any). For example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[0065=A]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You define the macro by typing it on the keyboard. When finished,
|
|||
|
press the keypad <enter> key to accept, or the keypad <clear> key to
|
|||
|
cancel. Note that the first time you press <clear> it clears any
|
|||
|
definition you have typed, if any. Press <clear> again to exit macro
|
|||
|
define mode without changing anything.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While defining a macro, you can call another keyboard macro by
|
|||
|
holding the option key down when you press the keyboard key. The
|
|||
|
status of the open-apple key (up or down), is saved in the macro
|
|||
|
definition, which is especially useful with Appleworks.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
During the macro definition, the following keypad keys have special
|
|||
|
functions:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Keypad Key Function
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* Delete last character entered
|
|||
|
- Move cursor back 1
|
|||
|
+ Move cursor forward 1
|
|||
|
<clear> Cancel definition
|
|||
|
<enter> Accept definition
|
|||
|
= End of macro definition, comments follow (optional)
|
|||
|
/ Enter special macro functions
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The keypad "/" key is used to enter Numeric macro calls, special
|
|||
|
macro calls, and all the other special macro functions described
|
|||
|
later. To call Numeric macros enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/nnnn<return> where nnnn is Numeric macro number 1..9999
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To enter a special macro call:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/xx.<return> where xx is special macro number 00..99

|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
SCREEN DISPLAY DURING MACRO DEFINITIONS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
As you type your macro definition, each character is displayed on the
|
|||
|
top line of the screen. If you hold the open apple key down while
|
|||
|
typing a character, the character appears as {k} where "k" is the
|
|||
|
character. Open-Apple A is shown as {A}, for example. Other display
|
|||
|
features are as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[k] keyboard macro call
|
|||
|
[nnnn] Numeric macro call
|
|||
|
[xx.] special macro call
|
|||
|
<A> control key / <A>..<Z>
|
|||
|
{A} open apple key down
|
|||
|
| end of macro, beginning of comments
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The arrow keys, tab, escape, delete, and return are printed as
|
|||
|
follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<left> <right> <down> <up> <tab> <esc> <del> <ret>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Combinations of keys produce the following, for example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{<tab>} means open-apple-<tab> pressed
|
|||
|
[<tab>] call keyboard macro key <tab>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Other special functions are displayed between [ ] brackets as
|
|||
|
described later.

|
|||
|
PRINTING MACRO DEFINITIONS
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key has a very flexible way of displaying the definitions in
|
|||
|
your current macro file. It types the definitions as a macro!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can use this feature to type a list of all your macro definitions
|
|||
|
into a word processing file. For example, to see all the built-in
|
|||
|
macro definitions, boot Appleworks and enter the word processor with
|
|||
|
an empty file. Hold the option key down, and press the keypad "-"
|
|||
|
key twice:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This will type the definitions for macros 1 to 9999 into your word
|
|||
|
processor, regardless of which word processor you are using.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the following display options, the "-" key is the one on the
|
|||
|
keypad:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
-- Displays all macro definitions
|
|||
|
-nnnn- Displays all definitions starting with Numeric macro nnnn
|
|||
|
nnnn- Displays Numeric macro nnnn only
|
|||
|
-k Displays Numeric macro "k"
|
|||
|
-<@> <@> is ctrl-@ / Displays all current keyboard macros
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note: Diversi-Key may pause for up to 12 seconds when displaying
|
|||
|
macros, as it searches for undefined macro numbers.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Comments: You can put comments at the end of your macro definitions
|
|||
|
by pressing the keypad "=", followed by the comment. When displaying
|
|||
|
comments, i.e. with keypad --, Diversi-Key sends these comments as
|
|||
|
actual keystrokes. That is, a <ret> in a macro definition is sent as
|
|||
|
the 5 characters, "<ret>", during display. A <ret> in a comment, is
|
|||
|
sent as a real single keystroke carriage return, during display only.
|
|||
|
This allows you to send formatting commands in comments, to make them
|
|||
|
easier to read. For example, the built-in comments all start with
|
|||
|
<ret> space, to indent them on the next line.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
FLUSH: CTRL_OPEN-APPLE_DELETE :THE PANIC BUTTON!
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you trigger the wrong macro, or hit keypad -- by mistake,
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key may go merrily along typing bad keystrokes for some time.
|
|||
|
Fortunately, you can stop Diversi-Key at any time by typing the FLUSH
|
|||
|
key sequence. To do this, hold down the control and open-apple keys,
|
|||
|
and then press the delete key. Try this whenever Diversi-Key seems
|
|||
|
to be acting "stangely", i.e. not working.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
MACRO FILES
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key macro files are saved on disk as binary files. You then
|
|||
|
BRUN the file to load it into memory for use. The Diversi-Key disk
|
|||
|
contains a standard file named "DIVMAC" which contains the pre-defined
|
|||
|
macro definitions for Appleworks (and other programs). To load this
|
|||
|
file, enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BRUN DIVMAC
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you do this, the macro definitions on disk in the DIVMAC file
|
|||
|
will replace the current macros in memory. However, you may keep up
|
|||
|
to 10 different macro files in memory at once, each with up to 9999
|
|||
|
macros in 32K memory.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Macro files in memory are numbered from 0 to 9. Normally, you will
|
|||
|
only use file #0. To switch to a new macro file number, hold the
|
|||
|
option key down, and press the keypad keys "=+n", where n is a KEYPAD
|
|||
|
digit from 0 to 9.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, to load a second macro file named "MAC2" and still
|
|||
|
preserve the exisiting macros, enter
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
=+1 (keypad keys with option key down)
|
|||
|
BRUN MAC2
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To switch back to the original macro file, enter "=+0" (keypad-option
|
|||
|
key down).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Finally, to release the memory allocated for the second macro file,
|
|||
|
if necessary, enter "=-*1" (keypad-option key down).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
We anticipate that you may someday buy commercial programs with
|
|||
|
custom Diversi-Key macro files included.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
SAVING MACRO FILES
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can save your current macros in a file, either under ProDOS or
|
|||
|
DOS 3.3. To do this, you must first enter BASIC, and get to the
|
|||
|
Applesoft prompt, which is a:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
One way to do this is to choose "BASIC.SYSTEM" from the //GS program
|
|||
|
launcher or desktop.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you see this prompt, enter special macro [1.][2.]. That is,
|
|||
|
hold the option key down, and press the 4 keypad keys "1.2." without
|
|||
|
letting the option key up.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key will type the word "BSAVE" for you, and wait for you to
|
|||
|
enter a file name. Type the name of the macro file you want to save,
|
|||
|
and hit <return>. Diversi-Key will finish the BSAVE command for you.
|
|||
|
You may now reboot. Under ProDOS, you can return to the launcher by
|
|||
|
typing "BYE<return>".
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
WARNING!!!!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Never enter [1.][2.] while executing a program. Doing this will
|
|||
|
crash the program (and possibly the whole system). Be sure you see
|
|||
|
the Applesoft prompt "]" before entering [1.][2.].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
STARTUP MACRO
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After your new macros are installed with BRUN macro, Diversi-Key will
|
|||
|
automatically execute Numeric macro [9999], if you have defined one.
|
|||
|
Use this macro to initialize Diversi-Key set-up values, if you wish.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can specify a different macro as the startup macro. To do so,
|
|||
|
save the macro file as follows
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[nnnn+] (where nnnn is start-up macro number)
|
|||
|
[1.][3.]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
FORCING FILE NUMBER
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When you install a macro file, it normally loads into the current
|
|||
|
active file number, which you set with [=+n] before BRUN DIVMAC. To
|
|||
|
create a macro file which loads to a specific file number, enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[=++n][1.][2.] (when saving the macro file)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can use this feature to set up a turn-key system which loads
|
|||
|
several macro files, using the startup macro of the first file to
|
|||
|
load the second file to a different file number.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
CONVERTING TO SYSTEM FILES
|
|||
|
********
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can convert your macro files to system files, in order to load
|
|||
|
them from a menu manager program, as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
First CATALOG your disk and note the length of the DIVMAC file.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BLOAD DIVMAC,A$1000
|
|||
|
CREATE SDIVMAC,TSYS
|
|||
|
BSAVE SDIVMAC,TSYS,A$1000,Lxxxxx where xxxx is the length from the
|
|||
|
CATALOG ABOVE
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can do this with any macro file, not just "DIVMAC".

SLOWING DIVERSI-KEY DOWN / PROGRAM COMPATIBILITY PROBLEMS
|
|||
|
++++++++
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key sends its keystrokes just like you had typed them. That
|
|||
|
is, they appear at $C000, the normal keyboard location. This is how
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key can work with any program.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Unfortunately, some programs throw away keystrokes if you type too
|
|||
|
fast. This is never necessary, but many programmers are in the habit
|
|||
|
of doing it. Diversi-Key automatically corrects this problem in
|
|||
|
Appleworks 2.0, and Pascal 1.3, by patching these programs in memory
|
|||
|
when they appear.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For other programs, your only hope is to slow down Diversi-Key,
|
|||
|
(unless you can figure out how to patch them). Macros [61.] through
|
|||
|
[67.] slow down Diversi-Key ([67.] is slowest), and macro [60.]
|
|||
|
restores normal speed.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Note that when you slow down Diversi-Key, you lose the ability to
|
|||
|
type ahead during a macro. Diversi-Key automatically slows down when
|
|||
|
you enter the control panel, so that's why you can't type ahead
|
|||
|
there.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This problem only shows up with machine language programs, so if you
|
|||
|
know some machine language, you can try to patch the problem away.
|
|||
|
Typically, the problem is caused by clearing the keyboard strobe at
|
|||
|
$C010 unecessarily, usually as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
LDA $C010 (NOT NEEDED, CHANGE TO NOP/NOP/NOP)
|
|||
|
GETKEY LDA $C000
|
|||
|
BPL GETKEY
|
|||
|
STA $C010 (NEEDED)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can use the //GS monitor to find references to $C010 as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

|
USING THE MOUSE
|
|||
|
++++++++
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key allows you to program your mouse to send macro
|
|||
|
keystrokes. You activate the mouse with the special macro: [51.]
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With the mouse activated, you can send a total of 10 different macros
|
|||
|
from the mouse. When the program starts, the mouse movements will
|
|||
|
send the following macros:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With mouse button up:
|
|||
|
[<P>] left mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<Q>] right mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<R>] down mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<S>] up mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<T>] sent when mouse button goes from down to up
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With mouse button down:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[<V>] left mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<W>] right mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<X>] down mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<Y>] up mouse motion
|
|||
|
[<Z>] sent when mouse button goes from up to down
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can re-assign these mouse macros with the /B (BMOUSE) and /M
|
|||
|
(MOUSE) special functions. For example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/B/<A> will assign the mouse button down macros to be [<A>} through
|
|||
|
[<E>]. /M/<A> does the same for the mouse button up.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
/B1000 will assign the mouse button down macros to be Numeric macro
|
|||
|
numbers 1000 to 1004, and similarly for /M1000.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To use the mouse, first enter [51.] to enable it. Then, hold down
|
|||
|
the option key, and move the mouse, or press the mouse button. The
|
|||
|
mouse is only active when the option key is down.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
While holding the option key down, you can press the control key to
|
|||
|
enable the one way mouse function. With the control key down, mouse
|
|||
|
left-right motion is ignored. With the control key up, mouse up-down
|
|||
|
motion is ignored. If you prefer, you can use the control key to
|
|||
|
convert mouse left/right motion into up/down motion. Enter [54.] to
|
|||
|
enable this feature.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can lower the mouse sensitivity with [55.] for horizontal, or
|
|||
|
[56.] for vertical. You can enter these macros up to 255 times for
|
|||
|
minimum sensitivity (use repeat function).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Macro [57.] increases the ability of the mouse to type ahead. Each
|
|||
|
time you call [57.], can typeahead one more macro call. You can
|
|||
|
increase typeahead 255 times.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you define mouse motion to do cursor movement keystrokes, then the
|
|||
|
typeahead behaves as follows:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With no typeahead, the cursor moves in the same direction the mouse
|
|||
|
moves. When you stop mouse movement, cursor movement stops. If you
|
|||
|
move the mouse faster than the cursor can follow, nothing changes.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With full typeahead, the mouse can get ahead of the cursor. If you
|
|||
|
move the mouse rapidly, the cursor will eventually catch up to the
|
|||
|
mouse. The cursor keeps moving after you stop moving the mouse.
|
|||
|
With typeahead, the location of the mouse on the table corresponds to
|
|||
|
the location the cursor will eventually reach on the screen.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After you start moving the mouse, you can no longer trigger macros
|
|||
|
from the keyboard. You'll notice that the inverse "K" in the upper
|
|||
|
right corner disappears during mouse movements. Let up the option
|
|||
|
key for an instant to get the "K" to re-appear, and allow macro
|
|||
|
triggering from the keyboard again. This feature is included to
|
|||
|
avoid pausing the program during mouse movements.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When using the mouse for a long time, you can enter [45.] to change
|
|||
|
the "trigger" key to <caps lock>, to avoid of having to hold down the
|
|||
|
<option> key all the time. To cancel, enter [40.].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With Diversi-Key, the mouse becomes an extremely flexible tool which
|
|||
|
can be used in any program, if desired.

Trigger hold mode allows you to use the mouse without having to hold
|
|||
|
down the option key. Enter special macro [05.] to enable trigger
|
|||
|
hold mode. To turn it off, enter [04.].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With trigger hold mode active, the option key (or other trigger key),
|
|||
|
behaves much like the caps lock key. That is, when you press and
|
|||
|
release the option key once, it stays "pressed" until you press and
|
|||
|
release it again.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This mode may also be used to trigger macros with one hand.

distribution of the program subject to the following restrictions:
|
|||
|
|

|
1. Anyone receiving a copy of Diversi-Key must send a $45 license
|
|||
|
fee directly to DSR, Inc. within 2 weeks.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
2. Any company, club, or individual may charge up to $5.00 for

|
Publishers:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Unlike Diversi-DOS and Diversi-Cache, we do not license Diversi-Key
|
|||
|
to be included with other programs. However, we do encourage you to
|
|||
|
include a custom Diversi-Key macro file on your disks, specific for
|
|||
|
your program. We hope you will recommend that your customers order
|
|||
|
Diversi-Key directly from us, in order to use this file.

*** User Support ***
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Your user support number entitles you to talk directly to the
|
|||
|
programmer, Bill Basham. Please write if possible, or call:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
313 553-9460 between 3 and 5 PM Eastern time.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*** Diversi-Cache ***
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Cache dramatically increases the I/O speed of the Apple Disk
|
|||
|
3.5, under any operating system (ProDOS, Pascal, DOS 3.3).
|
|||
|
Diversi-Cache speeds up the Disk 3.5 in two ways. First of all,
|
|||
|
whenever the system reads a block, Diversi-Cache actually reads an
|
|||
|
entire track. This triples the speed of disk reads, and doubles the
|
|||
|
speed of ProDOS writes.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Secondly, Diversi-Cache allows you to allocate a cache memory buffer
|
|||
|
from 0 to 800K in size. Whenever the system reads a block,
|
|||
|
Diversi-Cache saves it in the cache buffer. If the system asks for
|
|||
|
this block again, it comes out of memory at "Ramdisk" speed.
|
|||
|
Diversi-Cache only speeds up the Apple Disk 3.5 designed for the
|
|||
|
Apple //gs, and will not affect the speed of the older Apple //c
|
|||
|
compatible UniDisk 3.5.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
*** Diversi-Copy ***
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Copy(tm) is the fastest and easiest way to make back-up
|
|||
|
copies of your 3.5 and 5.25 disks. Diversi-Copy will use all
|
|||
|
available memory in an Apple //gs, //e, //c, or II+ compatible to
|
|||
|
allow 1-pass copying with a single drive.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Diversi-Copy was chosen as inCider magazine's "Editors' Choice". It
|
|||
|
is the best copy program available, for both 5.25 and 3.25 drive
|
|||
|
copying.

CONVERTING DIVKEY TO A SYSTEM FILE
|
|||
|
--------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can convert Diversi-Key to a system file, so you can run it
|
|||
|
directly from a menu selection program. To do this, first run
|
|||
|
BASIC.SYSTEM. Then CATALOG the Diversi-Key disk and note the length
|
|||
|
of the DIVKEY file. Then, enter the following:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
CREATE SDIVKEY,TSYS,A$2000
|
|||
|
BLOAD DIVKEY
|
|||
|
BSAVE SDIVKEY,TSYS,A$2000,Lxxxxx (where xxxxx is length of DIVKEY file)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
--------
|
|||
|
MOVING DIVKEY TO DOS 3.3
|
|||
|
--------
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
First, boot DOS 3.3 and format a disk with:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
INIT HELLO
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Then, boot ProDOS again and enter:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
BLOAD DIVKEY
|
|||
|
Put in your new DOS 3.3 formatted disk
|
|||
|
PR#6
|
|||
|
BSAVE DIVKEY,A$2000,Lxxxxx (where xxxxx is length of DIVKEY file).
