When you first call up the Dialling Directory window, Scripta
displays the default Dialling Directory SCRIPTA.DIR.

You may have up to eighty such directories, each containing up to
200 numbers. The number eighty was chosen for speed of
implementation. The number of permitted directories may be made
infinite in a later release.

Each entry in a Scripta Dialling Directory contains the following
elements:

               - Script Name
               - Name
               - Number
               - Virtual Port Number
               - Time Limit, in seconds

When you cause Scripta to dial a number (see below), it first
obtains all the information it needs from 'Virtual Port'. In Scripta
Configuration, you will have set up the Virtual Port to a particular
combination of Baud Rate, DataBits, StopBits, Parity, Upload
Directory, Download Directory, and so on.

When connection has been made to the number, Scripta will either
execute the script named in the Dialling Directory entry, or will
return to Command Mode so that you may continue the call manually.

Keys which you may type whilst at the Dialling Directory window are
as follows:

Esc    -  quit the Dialling Directory window; return to Command
          Mode.

Return -  Dial the number of the current entry. If a connection is
          made, run the Script named in the current entry.

          Please note that the Dialling Directory is entered from
          Scripta Command Mode. When connection has been made,
          control returns to Command Mode which loads the required
          script and executes it.

          This means that while the script is being loaded, normal
          Command Mode is in operation which in turn means that
          anything received from the remote system will be
          displayed as usual BUT WILL BE MISSED BY THE SCRIPT.

          If the remote service starts up very rapidly, it is
          possible for the script to wait forever for its first
          required string from the remote which will never
          arrive because it ALREADY arrived, before the script
          started.

          If this happens to you then, instead of using the
          Return key which dials before running the script, try
          running the script directly, either by pressing the Tab
          key at the Dialling Directory window or by pressing Alt/s
          at the Scripta Command Mode screen.

          Obviously, the script must contain a suitable DIAL
          command because the number will no longer be dialled by
          the Dialling Directory.

Tab    -  Run the Script of the current entry (without dialling the
          number first).

Ins    -  Insert a new entry by 'pushing down' the current entry and
          all those below it. If the previous key pressed was Del,
          then the entry thus deleted is recalled, otherwise, a
          blank entry is inserted with a Virtual Port Number of 1.
          
          When the new entry has been inserted, the E action is
          executed, to allow you to Edit it.

Del    -  Delete the current entry. The deleted entry may be
          restored by subsequently pressing the Ins key.

C      -  Change to a new Dialling Directory. When you first call up
          the Dialling Directory window, Scripta displays the
          default Dialling Directory, SCRIPTA.DIR.
          
          When you press C, Scripta displays the names of all the
          .DIR files in the current DOS directory and allows you
          either to select one or to press Esc to cancel the change.
          
          In the initial release of Scripta, you may have up to
          eighty directories, each containing up to 200 entries. In
          a future release, this limit may be increased.

D      -  Dial the Number of the current entry. If connection is
          made, return to Command Mode so that the call may be
          continued manually.

E      -  Edit the current entry. 

M      -  'Mark' the current entry unless it is already marked in
          which case 'Unmark' it.
          
          D and 'Return' actions which fail to make a connection
          will circulate through all currently marked entries until
          a connection is made.

R      -  Reorder. This causes Scripta to select a new sort key for
          the directory, by circulating through the four fields
          Script Name, Name, Number and Port.
          
          In other words, if the directory is currently sorted by
          Script Name, pressing R will resort it by Name, and so on.

S      -  Sort the directory, using the current sort key. This
          allows you to enter a new entry anywhere and then sort it
          into position later.

U      -  Unmark all. All currently 'Marked' entries become
          'Unmarked'.
