Description
The INFO command initiates the Recital Information Center in the current directory.
The Recital Information Center is a powerful worksurface, from which any type of data may be accessed, viewed, modified and organized. Within the Recital Information Center, you can organize files into catalogs that represent a single application, an application interface or development project. The rich functionality of the Recital Information Center includes a graphical-like user interface with CUA compliant components, access to Recital worksurfaces, object oriented design tools and connectivity to foreign databases.
TITLE <expC>
The TITLE keyword is used to specify a title for the Information Center. When not specified, the default title is "Recital Executive Information Center".
IF SET DESIGN is ON, the Information Center initializes in Design mode allows, which allows access to CREATE and MODIFY worksurfaces as well as the complete range of design tools. Design mode may also be enabled with the DESIGN command. When in Design mode, the Recital Information Center displays a [DESIGN] key that is used to access the development worksurfaces.
The SET CATALOG TO <expC> command allows the specified catalog file to be used when the Recital Information Center is activated. If a catalog with the name specified in <expC> does not exist, it will be created. SET CATALOG ON causes all newly created files to be added automatically to the currently open catalog. When SET CATALOG is OFF, the currently open catalog is closed and automatic file adding is disabled. Catalogs may also be opened from within the Recital Information Center and files added to a catalog using the appropriate menu items.
The Recital Information Center menu bar provides access to a wide range of decision support tools, application objects and work surfaces. The menu bar contains the following options:
Menu | Description |
---|---|
File | Catalog file tasks |
Edit | Database table record options |

Tools | Popup Calculator, Time Manager and Notepad |
Customize | Environment customization toggles |
Summary | Financial and statistical calculations |
Organize | Database table operations |
Report | Quick and Custom Report and Label options |

The Recital Information Center contains six file panels providing vertical listings of filenames without extensions. Each panel represents a different category or file type and contains a <create> button giving access to the appropriate create worksurface.
