How to add a button or a funckey for a script

James Tan

 I have a few scripts for adjusting the grids and I hope to add a few buttons or funckey (shortcut keys) for those commonly used ones. Right now, I am using the menu, which requires at least 2 clicks to activate. I hope to speed up the time, is it possible?

    funckey is probably the way to go. You can experiment at the command line:

    funckey <some key sequence> replay <grid script>.scr

    Press the keys to get the equivalent key sequence, you can use any of the "not reserved" Function Keys with modifiers and regular keys. Once you have the required sequences down, edit the start of the "env", %HOME%\pcbenv\env %HOME% default is c:\SPB_Data to get the keys assigned at startup. Check the assignment settings through Tools>Aliases/Function Keys.
