There are two ways inserting text macros: with the tags menu in the editing window, mounted with the left click mouse or Help key. with short-cuts always including Alternate and (A to Z) keys. You can modify these macros as you wish: modify the JOE.RSC at the third tree (tags menu) with a resource editor like WERCS, INTERFACE, or RSC.3. Joe is coded to accept an modified tags menu. You can add, delete or modify the items (G_STRING) or add menus (G_TITLE). I don't advise these manipulations to neophytes. IMPORTANT: a menu must be small not to create drawing bugs. It must not take over the 640*400 screen on Falcon singleTOS (ie bugs). You must Sort the items and the menu if you don't want to have surprises when using the menu with keys. Configure the text macros keys, directly under Joe, in the window "Text macros". You can change text macros at every moment. Some characters of the text macro string are reserved: "|": same as "Return" "~": locates the text cursor after the macro insertion "#" at first: means to load a file located in the library. If the extension is *.HTM, the file is inserted in the text line per line. If the extension is *.STG, the file is inserted as a text macro.
