'''CBM''' ("Command Bar Menu") is a part of [[FutureOS|FutureOS]]. It is not completely part of the core ROMs, because it needs a high degree of flexibility to serve very different applications. CBM provides an consistent user-interface for all applications. You can use hierarchical pull-down menues to select files or functions. The interaction by the [[FutureOS|FutureOS]] desktop is done by using the OK icon.
One half The flexible part of CBM is provided as well documented Z80 source code that can be used to create new programs applications for [[FutureOS|FutureOS]]. The other half part of CBM is integrated in the core ROMs of FutureOS. The source code and some examples can be downloaded from the official FutureOS-Homepage. Therefore it's possible to adapt / use CBM for any of your self written FutureOS programsapplications.
CBM provides several build in standard functions like load file, save file, change colors, show help and so on.
When using If CBM is used for programsdifferent applications, then all these programs can apps will have nearly the same appearance. This makes it easy to work with different programsapps, because the generic appearence is always the same and the basic functions are located at the same positions.
Examples for programs using CBM are the [[FuturePlayer|MP3-Player]], the Sprite Converter [[GMSK|GMSK]], the map and playground editor [[GSED|GSEd]], the sprite manager [[Kane|Kane]] , the [[SYMBiFACE II]] [[ROManager]] and some other applications for [[FutureOS|FutureOS]].
