The [tools] Section
The [tools] NETMGR.INI section describes the menu items that appear in the Tools Menu of the main EliteView
program. You can add, delete, or change items in the Tools Menu simply by editing this section in the
NETMGR.INI file.
To edit the [tools] section:
1. Edit the total=n line to specify the number of items listed in the Tools Menu. The variable n specifies the
number of items listed under this menu.
2. Add a line describing each item in the [tools] section using the following format:
Seq=EV_Flag,Menu_Item,Executable,Help_Message,Toolbar_Bitmap
Parameter Definitions for the [tools] Section
The above list may be followed by zero or more lines for definitions that apply to individual devices.
3. Identify particular tools for any device, if necessary. Do this by adding or editing the following command line:
Device_ID.Seq=Executable
Table B-4 Parameter Definitions for the [tools] Section
Parameter Description
Seq= The sequence number is from 1 to n, where n is the total number of items in the Tools Menu.
EV_Flag Difference between EliteView and Non-EliteView Windows applications. Acceptable values
include:
0 Designates the entry as a “Non-EliteView Windows application”; i.e., it cannot work closely with
EliteView, but may be initiated from within some EliteView commands as an independent
process.
1 Designates the entry as an “EliteView Application”; i.e., it follows the set of rules specified by
SMC to allow interaction with other EliteView modules.
Menu_Item This is the text that appears in the menu. An ampersand “&” before one of the letters in the text
designates a short-cut key sequence (i.e., a single-letter used with the Alt key), which you can press
to invoke the corresponding command. This is normally shown onscreen with an underline.
Executable The name of the Windows application that is invoked when the corresponding item is selected. This
application program is set as the default application, which means that it is invoked only if no other
definition for individual devices exists.
Help_Message The message that appears in the status bar when the specified menu item is browsed.
Toolbar_Bitmap The toolbar bitmap shown in the EliteView platform program.
