Related Commands
 
The NUMLOCK command is one of six special CONFIG.SYS commands for defining
startup menus and multiple configurations. The other commands are:
 
♦  The <MENUCOLOR> command, which defines the color of the menu's text and
   screen background.
 
♦  The <MENUITEM> command, which defines an item on the menu.
 
♦  The <MENUDEFAULT> command, which specifies the default menu item.
 
♦  The <SUBMENU> command, which defines a submenu.
 
♦  The <INCLUDE> command, which includes the contents of one configuration
   block in another. This command cannot be included in a menu block.
 
 
For an overview of the procedure for defining multiple configurations, see
the topic <Commands for Defining Multiple Configurations>
