This program is  a DOS shell that hides  the underlying operating
system from the uninitiated user, yet  does not get in the way of
the expert user.  The basic system  consist of up to  one hundred
Menu Files  with ten menu  pages each, and  each page having  ten
selections to choose  from. You start a selection  by pointing to
it with the cursor and pressing  the ENTER key or by pressing the
number  key associated  with that  selection. Each  selection can
start a program, run a batch file, or execute any DOS command.  A
selection can also  have multiple steps which can  include any or
all  of the  possibilities above.  You can  change menu  pages by
pressing the F1 thru F10 keys to go directly to page 1 thru 10 or
use the PgUp and PgDn keys.  Each page and each selection on each
page has a user definable description.

The  slash key  displays a  1-2-3  type  menu at  the top  of the
screen.  The choices  from the  menu include:  Help, Add, Change,
Delete, Move, Page,  Run, Exit, and Quit. If  you select HELP you
are presented with  another menu and screens that  explain how to
use the Menu  System. ADD, CHANGE, DELETE, and  MOVE allow you to
alter the description and action  taken by a Main Menu selection.
PAGE  lets you  change the   description of  a Page  Index entry,
import  pages, and  delete pages.  RUN allows  you to execute any
program, DOS command, or batch  file from within the Menu System.
EXIT returns you  to the DOS prompt and QUIT  erases the Top Menu
and puts  you back in  the Main Menu.  Other commands in  the Top
Menu allow you  to set up macros, passwords,  menu titles, change
colors  and window  borders, set  communications parameters,  set
mouse sensitivity, and  blank the menu screen after  a set amount
of time.

LanMenu works by letting DOS run temporary batch files that start
with the letters "TEMP".  These batch files  always have a unique
name and are deleted when you  return to LanMenu.  The batch file
is run by DOS  because LanMenu stuffs the batch file name and the
Enter key in the keyboard buffer  before it quits and gets out of
memory completely. All memory is then available to your programs.
