Configuration Keyed String Array

When coming up sm32 needs to:
1. get the dsz - to allocate memory and then dim the CONFIG KSA
2. load the CONFIG KSA from somewhere

Linux - add Linux Documentation here

Windows - [sm32, sm32 conname, sm32 pfile.sm32]

Sm32 under windows can have a single parameter:
ParameterExampleResult
no
parameter		 D:\SM32DIR\SM32.EXE if "sm32.sm32" exists in the current directory this is the same as
D:\SM32DIR\SM32.EXE sm32.sm32
if not same as
D:\SM32DIR\SM32.EXE default
parameter is
registry branch name
no .sm32 extention		 D:\SM32DIR\SM32.EXE xxx 1. set the config branch to:
HKEY_CURRENT\USER\Software\YDS\SM32\con_xxx
2. gets dsz from registry or 2500000 if no entry
3. uses the registry to load the CONFIG KSA
parameter is
a filename name
with .sm32 extention		 D:\SM32DIR\SM32.EXE xxx.sm32 1. get dsz from xxx.sm32 file header or
2500000 if xxx.sm32 file does not exits
2. use the xxx.sm32 file to load the CONFIG KSA

Modifying the Configuration

There are a number of ways to modify the SM32 configuration:
Options Menu: The Options menu item allows the user to modify/display the executing or some other existing configuration. This is available under both WINDOWS and LINUX.
Properties under the System Menu: The current WINDOWS configuration can be modified/displayed by choosing Properties under the System Menu. Use this method to change the console mode FONT's and the keyboard KEY assignments.
From within a Program
C![all]=CONFIGLoads the complete currently executed configuration KSA into C! .
SETCONFIG C![ALL]Sets the complete currently executed configuration KSA from C! .
D$=CONFIG(S$,I$)D$ receives the value of the single item I$ in section S$
SETCONFIG S$,I$,D$Sets the single item I$ in section S$ to the value D$
LOADCONFIG C$,C![""]Loads a complete configuration from the configuration FILE or REGISTRY BRANCH named in C$ into C!.
SAVECONFIG C$,C![""]Saves the complete configuration contained in C! to the configuration FILE or REGISTRY BRANCH named in C$.
Notes:
1. When a configuration is loaded into a KSA, the 1st 8 characters of the KEY is blank filled and is the SECTION. The rest of the KEY is the ITEM.
2. When modifying the executing configuration many of the configuration changes take effect after exiting (BYE) SM32. When a BYE is executed the configuration is updated back to where it came from.
3. You can transfer a configuration from a file to the registry or registy to a file using LOADCONFIG/SAVECONFIG. You may also want to save the executing configuration under a new name with CONFIG/SAVECONGFIG.

If care is taken not to conflict with SM32 data a programmer can add his own data to the configuration. For example if you called your section mysec0 then:
110 SETCONFIG "mysec0","mykey1",D1$
115 SETCONFIG "mysec0"+"mykey2",D2$
