Command Strings
Probably the most common Item that you will use is one with
"command =" keyword. This keyword expects a command string which
it will parse the same as a command typed into the VX text input area.
You will usually begin with one of the following command tokens:
|
! |
If a command is preceded by an exclamation point (!), it is assumed to be the name of a command template. The template is retrieved from "Forms.VX" and executed. |
|
$ |
If a command is preceded by a dollar sign ($), it is passed to the string event handlers logged with the Input Manager via "InMgrLogAppEh" (Log Application Event Handler). |
|
~ |
If a command is preceded by a tilde (~), it is assumed to be the name of a void function with void arguments (void function(void)). The specified function is called. |
|
| |
If a command is preceded by a pipe (|), it is assumed to be one of the hard-coded commands used to control the operation of the Input Manager (example: |FormEscape). |
