pE - The "perfect" Editor(tm)
Copyright (c) 1990-1994 by Just Excellent Software, Inc.
These notes are addendum to the printed pE manual.
Release 5.00
------------
pE is now a 'dual mode' executable. It senses whether or not
there is sufficient resource and switches to 'protected mode'
if possible. In Real Mode (normal DOS environment), it runs
as an overlayed program; while in protected mode, the entire
program loads into extended memory, leaving most of the lower
640 available for whatever. In protected mode all memory is
available to edit files along with up to 64 MB of hard disk,
which is used additionally as 'Virtual' memory.
Please set the environment variable PERUN as follows in your
Autoexec.Bat file:
SET PERUN=/EK-
This will enable a very smooth cursor action. It will NOT
affect any other program.
Many small changes have been added to pE since Version 4.03.
The color dialog was extended to use all 16 colors for
background and foreground. Status line, Windows, Menus,
Borders and Hot Keys can all be colored diferently.
The number of windows open has been extended to 64.
The print dialog was entirely re-written, with the ability to
direct output to a window, in addition to files and LPT1: & 2.
