SECTION 8. SMCREAD CARD READING SOFTWARE

8-7

This is equivalent to:

SMCRead a dfiles c p pfiles d prog1 1 q

This executes SMCRead and all data files are
collected and stored in files with a root name of
DFILES.DAT in comma separated format. All
the program files are then collected and stored
in a series of files with a root name PFILES. A
new program stored in PROG1.DLD is then
loaded into program area 1 in the card. Finally,
SMCRead quits.

There are some special command line
parameter options (see below) which should be
entered before parameters which you wish to
use to select normal menu options.

8.6.1 ADDITIONAL COMMAND LINE

PARAMETER OPTIONS

NOCOLOR

If poor contrast is apparent as a result of trying
to simulate SMCRead’s screen colors when

running SMCRead on a computer with an LCD
screen, the contrast may be improved by
entering NOCOLOR before menu commands.

Q

If you enter Q before menu command line
parameters SMCRead runs in quiet mode, i.e. it
does not beep.

SLOT n OR SOCKET n

Specifies the default slot/socket number n.

CRITICAL

This parameter is used when running
SMCRead under Windows to prevent task
switching (see section 8.5.5).

NOTE: SMCRead has the same capability
as GraphTerm, CSMCOM and SMCOM to
send character strings.
