Example
When creating a menu of CONFIG.SYS options to be displayed upon startup, you can create a menu item for the NORMAL block of options to be loaded by adding this line within a menu block:menuitem=normal, Standard Setup
If this option is selected, the block of configuration options in the CONFIG.SYS file labeled NORMAL will be loaded. The words Standard Setup will be displayed as the option text.
