Popup Windows

Several features of CMD.EXE display popup windows.  A popup window may be 
used to display filenames, recently-executed commands, recently-used 
directories, the results of an extended directory search, or a list 
created by the SELECT command or the @SELECT internal function. 

Popup windows always display a list of choices and a cursor bar.  You can 
move the cursor bar inside the window until you find the choice that you 
wish to make, then press the Enter key to select that item. 

Navigation inside any popup window follows the conventions described 
below. Additional information on each specific type of popup window is 
provided when that window is introduced in the online help. 

You can control the color, position and size of most popup windows from 
the Command Line 2 page of the OPTION dialogs.  You can also control these 
features with directives in the .INI file, including PopupWinLeft, 
PopupWinTop, PopupWinWidth, and PopupWinHeight, and PopupWinColors.  A few 
popup windows (e.g., the extended directory search window) have their own 
specific .INI directives, and corresponding separate choices in the OPTION 
command.  You can also change the keys used in most popup windows with key 
mapping directives in CMD.INI. 

Once a window is open, you can use these navigation keys to find the 
selection you wish to make: 

        ^               Move the selection bar up one line. 
        v               Move the selection bar down one line. 
                       Scroll the display left 4 columns. 
        >               Scroll the display right 4 columns. 
        PgUp            Scroll the display up one page. 
        PgDn            Scroll the display down one page. 
        Ctrl-PgUp       Go to the beginning of the list. 
         or Home        
        Ctrl-PgDn       Go to the end of the list. 
         or End         
        Esc             Close the window without making a selection. 
        Enter           Select the current item and close the window. 
 
 In addition to scrolling through a popup window, you can search the list 
 using character matching.  If you press a character, the cursor bar will 
 move to the next entry that begins with that character.  If you type 
 multiple characters, the cursor will move to the entry that begins with 
 the search string entered to that point (you can enter a search string up 
 to 32 characters long).  If no entry matches the character or string that 
 you have typed, the command processor beeps and does not move the cursor 
 bar.  To reset the search string, press Backspace. 

 You can change the keys used in popup windows with key mapping directives 
 in CMD.INI file.
