Selections are made in the same way almost everywhere
in the program. In either Sd
or Sdtty
, you may type in the
selection. The program has a sophisticated completing reader
that lets you abbreviate what you type. It is discussed in detail
in section The Completing Reader.
In Sd
, you may additionally select an item from the menu in
the usual ways. You may double-click it, or highlight it (by using the
cursor keys, for example) and click the `Accept' button. (You may
activate things with a single mouse click, if you prefer that style of operation,
by issuing the toggle singleclick mode
command or by placing the
single_click
option in your initialization file.)
You can see the choices that are available by typing a question mark or exclamation point. This is discussed in detail in section Question Mark and Exclamation Point.
In normal operation, the menu lists calls first, concepts next, and miscellaneous commands last. This menu is typically extremely large and needs to be manipulated with cursor keys or the scroll bar.
Go to the first, previous, next, last section, table of contents.
