Getting Started
Time Prompts
Time prompts are used to enter a time of day or a time interval.
These times are represented in
hours-minutes-seconds format:
mb art
time?
HH:PMM: SS
The program is asking for the time of day for an event.
The cursor will be blinking over the first H.
Times are entered in protected fields - you can only type over specific characters. The keys
- [9], [=],
[<], [>], and [ENDLINE] are active.
Notice that after typing over the second H, the cursor skips over the
colon (®) to the first I'l. Likewise, the cursor skips the colon when pressing the
key to move backwards.
Times are entered in 24-hour format. Any digit not specified will be interpreted as ki.
The ZETIIF program has an extended convention to indicate events which should begin immediately
upon startup of the lI program. Immediate events are denoted by entering --1 in the hours field.
Date Prompts
Date prompts are used to enter a date. Dates are represented in year/month/day format:
start
date?
YYeMRSDO
The program asks for the date of an event. (The cursor
will be blinking over the first 7.)
Dates are entered in protected fields - you can only type over specific characters. The keys
- 9), [«],
[>], and [ENDLINE] are active. Notice that after typing over the second ', the cursor skips over the slash
(+°) to the first [1. Likewise, the cursor skips the slash when pressing the
key to move backwards.
