Sets both the keyboard shortcut for the specified menu item, and the displayed text for the keyboard shortcut.
void _SetItemCmdKey(MENUID menuid, ITEMID itemid, int key, char FAR *text) MENUID menuid; /* Menu identifier. */ ITEMID itemid; /* Menu item identifier. */ int key; /* Shortcut key. */ char FAR *text; /* Displayed text. */ |
Remarks
If you don't want to display a keyboard shortcut, pass text as a pointer to a null string. If you want the system to generate the default displayed text, pass (char FAR *)0.
