                        Programmer's SUPER-MAINT 
                         ADDENDUM TO THE MANUAL
*****************************************************************************

Some features were added to SUPER-MAINT after the manual went to the 
printer.  You should print out this file and insert it into your manual.

Chapter 4: Building files with the Editor (SME.EXE)====>

The MAKE menu
=======================================================>

Once you have picked some files for a program you may press alt-c to see
a list of the files you have picked and to choose a default name for your 
program.  To choose a default name put the menu bar over the name of the
source code file you want to use for your program's name and press (Esc).
This feature will work only when the "Make" menu is in view.

Pick Code Files
=======================================================>

The first time you use this feature SME will read the drives you have on 
your system, and place them on a menu in the `Drives' window.  If your 
floppy disk drives have no disk in them they will NOT appear on the menu.  
If you want them there, you should put a disk in each drive you want 
included.

When SME reads your drives it makes a file called DRIVES.  From now on it 
reads this file to create the menu.  If you change your configuration, or 
want to include or exclude floppy drives, press (Alt) (r) to re-read the 
drives.

The same is true for the `Directories' window.  In this case, however, the 
file is named after the drive.  So the list of directories for drive C will 
be in a file called `C' (no extension).  Again, (Alt) (r) re-reads the 
directories for the drive.

This scheme greatly speeds up each use of SME.

Chapter 5: Setup (SMSET.EXE)===========================>

SM_Files
=======================================================>

LIBS Unique Name?           If you type `Y' SME will always ask you for 
                            a unique name for your library no matter what
                            you have set under `File Names.'  If you 
                            choose this feature ALL names will default to
                            the library name (response file names, etc).


Glob/Loc
=======================================================>

GLOBAL setup means that SUPER-MAINT takes its setup information from a file
called SUPER.INI in the SUPERFILES directory (the directory where you keep 
all your SUPER-MAINT executables, help files, etc.).

LOCAL setup means the setup information comes from the default directory 
(ie. the directory you are currently in.  Another copy of SUPER.INI, with 
different settings in it may be kept in the default directory.  Thus, you 
may have multiple setups for different compiler brands, programming projects, 
etc.

Global and Local Language Definition Files
=======================================================>

The Glob/Loc switch also affects your language definitions files and 
LASTMACS file.  When SME is in LOCAL mode and you try to use a macro function 
it looks for the lang def files (all six files with the .SM extension).  If 
some or all of them are missing it copies the global ones.  You may then edit 
the lang def files using the feature in the `Toolbox' menu, and then edit the 
LASTMACS file using the `Macros' feature of the `Make' menu.

This way, if you use the same compiler, but want different setups for 
different projects, you don't have to create your lang def files from 
scratch.

Using Different Brands of Compiler
=======================================================>

If you use more than one brand of compiler you will want local setups for 
each brand.  You can install the predefined lang def files before using SME 
in a directory to prevent the default .SM files from being copied.  This is 
easy to do from the self-extracting files on disk 2 (or super_b.zip if you 
have the BBS version).

Let's say you usually use Borland languages, so you installed SUPER-MAINT 
set up for them.  But sometimes you use a Microsoft compiler, so you want a 
local setup in a directory called D:\MSCODE.  From DOS go into that directory.  
Place Disk #2 in drive A:.  Now type: 

                              A:MS (Enter)

The Microsoft language definitions will be extracted to D:\MSCODE.  Now all 
you have to do is set the local SUPER.INI file to its Microsoft settings.  
Use SMSET (or `Setup' from SME), and make sure it is in LOCAL mode.  Then 
go into the `Defaults' section, press (Enter) until you get to `Manufacturer,'
and use the arrow keys until you see `Microsoft.'  Press (Enter) two more 
times to accept this setting.

How Do I know Whether I'm in Local or Global Mode?
=======================================================>

SME:   At the top left (next to `HELP' you will see a G if you are in global 
       mode, or an `L' if you are in local mode.

       Press (alt)(r) for the review screen.  Local or Global setting is 
       listed at the bottom of the screen.

SMSET: At the bottom of the screen is a message telling you which mode you 
       are in.

       Press (alt)(r) for the review screen.  Local or Global setting is 
       listed at the bottom of the screen.

SM:    Type SM -l to see a chart of current settings.
