My dim memory is that even the alt-underlined letter works.

The program isn't dated, but the image is an OS/2 screen shot, so we are talking the late 1990s, right?

Y'all

Ever since I started with VB3 in the mid-90s, I've heard about
event-driven programming. And I made the leap to, pressing a function
key is a kind of event - not all that different from pressing a button
in a GUI - and, hey, if you have PCOMM and turn on hotspots, it IS
pressing a button in a GUI!!

You don't need no stinking PCOMM to get hotspots: a 3487, 3488, or 3489
will get you hotspots, if you have a mouse to fit it (and an enhanced
Twinax controller to run it). (Note: an InfoWindow II mouse will work
just fine as a PS/2 mouse, but the other way around does NOT work!)

And it will also get you programmable mouse buttons. And various GUI
constructs (I know for a fact that radio button blocks are fully
supported; I had to model the radio button support in OUR TN5250e client
on SOMETHING, and I've always tried to either follow, or slightly
improve upon, "the authentic instrument".)

The very worst mistake an RPG instructor can possibly make (unless
he/she is actually TRYING to kill the language) is to not teach The
Cycle as anything other than something to bypass or disable!
