The File menu contains options to control the loading and saving of A-Shell configuration settings. These settings are normally kept in a file called default.ash, and mainly relate to options configurable on the various Settings menus (colors, fonts, etc.) In addition, it also stores the size and position of the A-Shell window (to be used as the default on the next launch.) Note that if a configuration file other than default.ash is to be used, it must be specified on the command line used to launch A-Shell. See the Settings File switch in Launching A-Shell.

Description |
|---|---|
Load Settings |
Allows you to load a new configuration file. |
Save Settings |
Saves the current settings to the current configuration file. |
Save Settings As |
Saves the current settings to a configuration file, which you can name. This is useful when individual users want to have their own configuration settings independent of other users. In that case, you would need to use the –o command line switch to specify the configuration file when you launch A-Shell. |
Default Settings |
Causes the current settings to revert to the defaults. |
Provides a means to graphically capture anything being displayed inside the A-Shell window. |
|
Exit |
This is only active when you are at the A-Shell command prompt. In that case, clicking Exit will force the command "HOST" into the keyboard buffer, which in turn will cause the A-Shell session to terminate. |
