VS1 AND VOICE SYNTHESIZER EDITOR

The following convention will be used
concerning keyboard keys. Special use
keys will be surrounded by <>. For
example, when you are requested to
press the "Enter" key it will look like
this: press <Enter>. Combinations of
keys, such as pressing the "Alt" key
simultaneously with the "F3" key will
look like this: press <Alt> <F3>.
Enter the Editor by typing "VS1" <Enter>. You
should see a screen similar to Figure 7-1. Let's
describe each of the main menu options.
Through practice you should get a thorough
understanding of each option. VS1 will always
come up with the FILE main menu option
highlighted unless a particular file is specified at
the time VS1 is booted up. There are several
ways to move from option to option.

Put the mouse cursor anywhere on the
main menu option you want and click
the left mouse button to select.

For keyboard use do the following:
•
Use the right or left arrow keys to
highlight a different main menu option.
•
Press and hold <Alt> followed by the
first letter of the main menu option.
Release both keys together.
Let's describe each individual main menu option
and suboption starting with the FILE main menu
option. Use the keyboard or the mouse to
highlight FILE.
7.2. THE FILE MAIN MENU OPTION
Don't select any of the suboptions at this time.
The various suboptions and a brief description
under the FILE option are as follows:
NEW FILE - opens a user selected *.DLD
file to be edited.
SAVE - saves the present *.DLD file that
has been loaded into VS1 for editing.
SAVE AS - allows you to save the present
file being edited under a different file name.
ABOUT - gives a brief description of the
VS1 Editor and its version number.
EXIT - leaves the VS1 editing environment
and returns you to the DOS prompt. VS1
will warn you if you try to exit without saving
a file previously selected for editing.
You can also exit VS1 from the main menu by
pressing <Esc>.

If you have a mouse, place the mouse
cursor on the suboption you want and
click the left mouse button to select
.
