Command
Type
Purpose
The SUBMENU command deÞnes a menu item that represents a secondary menu
when selected. This command can only be used within a menu conÞguration block
in the CONFIG.SYS Þle.
Syntax
SUBMENU= blockname [, menu_text ]
Remarks
The blockname argument deÞnes the name of the secondary menu block of
commands. The block menu must be deÞned elsewhere in the CONFIG.SYS Þle,
otherwise, ROM-DOS will leave this item off of the startup menu. The label can be
up to 70 characters long and can contain most printable characters, including
spaces, backslashes (\), forward slashes (/), commas, semicolons (;), and equals
signs (=). Square brackets ([]) cannot be used in block names.
The optional menu_text argument speciÞes the text that ROM-DOS will display for
this menu item on the startup menu. If this argument is left out, ROM-DOS will
display the block name as the text. The menu text can be up to 70 characters long
and can contain any character.
The submenu can be deÞned with any user provided descriptive label. It need not
have the [MENU] label.
