The mechanism for providing demos and tutorials in the graphical interface is
identical. The following steps show you how to set up demos or tutorials in the
Graphical User Interface.
1 Create the demo or tutorial topic files and the associated command files.
Topic files are simply ASCII text files. You can use "\I" to produce inverse video
in the text, "\U" to produce underlining in the text, and "\N" to restore normal text.
Command files are executed when the "Press to perform demo (or tutorial)"
pushbutton (in the topic popup dialog) is pushed. A command file must have the
same name as the topic file with ".cmd" appended. Also, a command file must be
in the same directory as the associated topic file.
