Editing Menus

Menus are created or changed using the Toolkit utility Work with Menus that is invoked by the Toolkit command Work with Menus (YWRKMNU).

The menu to be added/edited can either be named directly, or else chosen from a selection list:

• YWRKMNU MENU(FRED) /* Work with Menus FRED */
• YWRKMNU MENU(*SELECT) /* display existing menus for seln*/

Menu editing can be done at two levels:

• An outline edit allows rapid full-panel design of menus, including text and numbering. The outline edit display allows you to enter online edit commands similar to those of the i OS SEU source editor Start SEU (STRSEU).
• Detailed editing allows you to specify what each option does. The detailed menu edit display has i OS syntax checking and prompting support available.

The menu outline edit display looks like this:
