		Short Cuts

The UCLink menu system allows you to define short cuts.  Short cuts
have been predefined for several commonly used commands.  You can see
your current list of defined short cuts by by pressing "v" in any
menu.

One of the predefined shortcuts is "p" for Pine.  This means that you
can enter the Pine mail system by pressing "p" at any time in the
menu system, bypassing "The post office" menu.

To define a short cut for the line the arrow is pointing to,
press "a".  For example, if you press "a" when the screen shows:

                       The post office

              1.  Use Pine to send and receive mail.
              2.  List messages in my "inbox".
         -->  3.  List most recent messages in my "inbox".
              4.  Mail forwarding and automatic replies (vacation)/
              5.  Managing mailing lists/
              6.  Use the BSD "mail" system/

then the menu system responds with:

        Defining short cut for:
             List most recent messages in my "inbox".
        Enter letter to represent it or ? for help:

Then you can either enter a letter to be associated with the short cut
or press return to cancel defining the short cut.

Letters used by the menu system, e.g. "q" for quit, can not be used for
short cuts.  All other letters may be used.  Lower case and upper case
are treated separately; e.g. you can use "b" and "B" to designate
separate short cuts.

You are limited to a total of 15 short cuts.  You can delete a short
cut by pressing "v" to go to the short cut menu and pressing "d" at
the appropriate line.

You can even delete the predefined short cuts.  E.g., in Pine, "p"
goes to the previous line.  However, if you are not in Pine but
in the menu system itself, the "p" invokes Pine rather than moving
up one line in the current menu.

If you do this often, you may want to delete the "p" shortcut and
define some other letter as a short cut for Pine.
