p EXAMPLE TEXT FILE FOR BREEZE V3.2  ******* BREEZE ******* (Text editor/processor) Version 3.2 This is an example text file to show you how to get the most out of BREEZE. The unusual characters scattered around this file are used in various special functions, and these are explained. Highlighting The highlighting of the words at the top of this file is achieved by inserting the special characters for boldfacing (Alt-F5 to begin boldface and Alt-F6 to end boldface). The corresponding keys to insert special characters for italics are Alt-F7 and Alt-F8. Turning your text into an executable file You can easily turn the text you are currently reading into a stand-alone executable program. Note the line at the very top of the screen starting with the letter "p". This character indicates text to be used as a title bar at the top of the screen, as well as to enable printing permission when you turn this text into a stand-alone executable text viewing program. To convert text into an executable program, firstly load the document into BREEZE, then select the "Text to .EXE" option in the Extras menu. The extras menu us reached through the main menu. (Press the F10 key, or Esc, for the main menu, then press "E" for Extras and then "E" again to create the .EXE file). Note: the file BREEZE.DAT must be available for the conversion to work. (BREEZE.DAT is contained in the compressed file BRZUTS30.EXE on the distribution disk, and must be uncompressed before it can be used). If you want menus in the executable program you are creating (for instant access to certain portions of text), then you need to create text that looks something like the following: MAIN MENU Select from the 1. Introduction (What is BREEZE?) following or scroll 2. Files on the distribution disk. through the text 31. Go to first screen. at your leisure. 4. Trying out a few features. Notice the special character (ascii character number 15) which appears after the menu option number - and after the style character as it happens in this case). This special character tells BREEZE to treat this text as a menu option when it creates the .EXE file. The third option has a number 1 following the special menu character, meaning "go to line 1 when the option number three is pressed". The first two options have no such number, so the number is automatically determined by BREEZE during the conversion process. In the case of option 1 BREEZE will search the document for text matching "Introduction". The text it is searching for must be enclosed in "< >" brackets. If this text is found then BREEZE will know to go to that line number when this menu option is selected.
