MODES, SWITCHES

These two sections, <MODES> and <SWITCHES>, both define booleans that can be set in the simkey-app before compiling. They can be used to change the course the program takes through conditionals.

SWITCHES can be defined and set later on in <FUNCS> and <MACRO>, but they will not be given as options to be set within the app. MODES are constant throughout the program, and only one can be on, or TRUE, at a time.

Here's an example of how they can be used (refer to this page for more information):

<VECTORS>
    # Different delays for clicking #
    $FAST_DELAY = 0,1
    $MEDIUM_DELAY = 0,25
    $SLOW_DELAY = 0,100

<MODES>
    # Modes for which delay is used #
    $FAST
    $MEDIUM
    $SLOW

<FUNCS>
    # Function to set delay based on mode #
    @setDelay {
        @if $FAST {
            @delay [$FAST_DELAY] 
        }
        @elseif $MEDIUM {
            @delay [$MEDIUM_DELAY]
        }
        @else {
            @delay [$SLOW_DELAY]
        }
    }

<MACRO>
    # Set delay and click #
    @setDelay
