Windows Provided by Medley


Two important windows are available as soon as you enter the Medley environment.

One is the Executive Window, the main window where you will run your functions. It is the window that the caret is in when you turn on your machine, and load Medley. It is

shown in Figure 6-1.

The other window that is open when you enter Medley is the "Prompt Window". It is the long thin black window at the top of the screen. It displays system prompts, or prompts you have associated with your programs. (See Figure 6-2.)

Other programs, such as the editors, also use windows. These windows appear when

the program starts to run, and close (no longer appear on the screen) when the program is done running.
