Short JSL coding procedure

The fastest and easiest way to create a JSL is to build it from an
existing one, such as the default JSL (named DFAULT.JSL),
provided with your system software. The following steps
describe how to create a JSL “the short way.”

1. Open a Text Editor window by following these steps:

a. On the controller screen, right-click in the background to

display the Workspace menu.

b. From the Workspace menu, select [Programs]. The

Programs pull-down menu opens beside the Workspace
menu.
