<\/a><\/p>\nFor those who aren\u2019t familiar with the custom menu, it is a menu that users can customize to call other tools and processes.

This is a fire-and-forget trigger for applications that do not provide console output, such as PowerRegEx or Windows Explorer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you want to display the console application\u2019s results in the Output panel, use the Commandline group:<\/p>\n Note: [Commandline] is the same as using [Menu].<\/p>\n The [Application] and [Commandline] groups are separated in the custom menu.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Menu Separators<\/strong><\/p>\n We included the ability to add separators to the custom menu, which allows you to visually group commands:<\/p>\n To add a separator, include a line item with a dash for text:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prompt for Input<\/strong><\/p>\n You now have the option to prompt for input when triggering a custom menu item.<\/p>\n For example, when committing in GIT, you are required to insert a comment. Now you can use the prompt to enter a unique comment.<\/p>\n To prompt the user, you must use the following macro in your Custom Menu.inf file:<\/p>\n {Prompt}<\/p>\n If you wish to include a message then use the following format:<\/p>\n {Prompt|Message}<\/p>\n Where Message<\/em> is the text you wish to display.<\/p>\n If you wish to include a default value then use the following format:<\/p>\n {Prompt|Message|Default Value}<\/p>\n Where Default Value<\/em> is the text you wish to prefill the prompt dialog\u2019s input line.<\/p>\n Here is a sample prompt that is used to enter a comment for the GIT commit command:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
