CST Menu
Richard Menedetter
Is it possible to have a submenu in the custom (CST) menu ??
Eg like the vectr menu in the mth menu ?
If yes, how can I jump up again ... eg from vectr menu back to mth ?
Thank you in advance
CU, Ricsi

Yes. Here's one way to do it: simply create a directory, put its name
in your CST list, and then put another 'CST' variable in that directory.
The "UP" key will work as expected. Simple, powerful, nestable, and
fully customizable.
Hope this helps!

well, you always can use the last menu key... (on HP48: 26.3 key) or
implement a routine in your menu's...

OK ... I already figured out this myself ;)
Thanx very much anyways !
Isn't there another possibility without leaving my current dir ?

I have used HOME, beacause I didn't know the command for up ...
('up' does not work, 'home' does, and I was in a first level dir anyways ;)
I just tried, that you can use more than 6 entries, and that the next key
works as expected ... GREAT ;)
I love my HP48G+ :)))
(it's the same as with the C64 ... amazing what people are able to do with
these limited ressources ;)

Would'nt this mean to change the working directory from within the CST
menu? So if you do something using submenu 1 and store the result and
then use submenu 2 and store this result, too, the results would be
located in different directories, right?
As I understand the question, Richard wants something different, for
example: the CST menu has some 'top level' entries like
"formulas", "constants" and "units". Pressing one of the corresponding
buttons brings up a list of e.g. formulas WITHOUT changing the working
dir.
This can be done,too, although its more clumsy. Here is an example:
{ { "Functions"
\<< { { "HMyIx" HMyIx
} { "H" ENTROPIE }
{ "ld" { ld } } {
"sin" { sin } } {
"rect" { REC } } }
TMENU
\>> } STD { "ENG"
\<< 3 ENG
\>> } { "\->LIST" \->LIST
} { "OBJ\->" OBJ\-> }
CRDIR }
"TMENU" does the trick.
Hope this helps, too

I guess this is the temporary menu as written in the manual - GREAT !
I have to admit that I don't understand the example fully.
(Could you explain it ... specially the List and Obj references ?
maybe in private email ?)

YES !!!

Shortcut:
Built-in commands and functions
automatically display their own names in menus,
so { ... \->LIST OBJ\-> ... } suffices.

That wouldn'y work, because each MENU call makes a new (well, in fact it
overwrites the existing one) CST variable.
The way is as Stefan Ehlen proposed.
Richard, the simplifyed form is this: (Note that I write << , >> , etc.
without any symbol)
{
{
"Formulas"
<<
{
{
"Pitagoras"
'h^2=a^2+b^2
}
{
"Other formula"
'a+b=c-d'
}
}
TMENU
>>
}
{
"Units"
<<
{
{
"meter"
1_m
}
{
"kilograme"
1_kg
}
}
TMENU
>>
}
{
"Phones"
<<
{
{
"Sam"
1234567
}
{
"Mary"
7654321
}
}
TMENU
>>
}
}
Then you store this into the CST variable and you are done. Or else (It's the
same thing), put that list on the stack and type MENU. Then the list is stored
in the CST var and the menu is shown.
