Re: Macro naming support

The menu only has 4 macros.
You can still use all 24 macros, you just have to press the F-keys.


I'm guessing that tn5250-res.rc defines static structures. Since the
macro names aren't known until runtime, I'm not sure how I could modify
win32 to pick up the macro names.

I suspect that there's an API you can call to change the names of the menu items -- but I'm not really a Windows programmer, so I don't know what it is off the top of my head. I'd have to Google around.
