-[1.3 Who Made The Chaos Editor?]-----------------------------------------
My name is Garth Dahlstrom, I am an 18 year old unemployed student
living in Toronto, Canada.
I May Be Contacted By Modem At:
The S.L.C. Systems in Toronto
S.L.C. I - The Dream Board [905]843-9100
S.L.C. ][ - The Death Board [905]843-9720
Info Mania BBS in NewFoundLand [709]LP-Mania (576-2642) (I'M FireStorm
Here)
-[1.4 Why?]---------------------------------------------------------------
I created the Chaos Editor because:
a) To see if I could do it.
b) Having been able, to showcase my programming talents to the
world.
c) I hate that lame editor that comes with DOS.
d) I needed some spice in my life.
e) To help me, promote my upcoming game and appeal for help to the world.
-[1.5 Author Extends Greetings]-------------------------------------------
The Author would like to extend greetings to the follow peoples.
The Legendary Dr.Awesome
Moby and All other members of A N T H A S I A
X.T. Grin and Ansi·FX
Shep, who makes late night time programming all the more bearable.
Everyone else reading this... I invite All your feedback.
-[2.1 Learning The Ropes]-------------------------------------------------
It is pretty straight forward to learn.
If you have a mouse then the menus and status bar can be used by
clicking on the words that you wish to use.
Clicking on New on the status bar opens an empty text window for
you to type in will appear.
The Commands/Menus can also be activated by the keyboard by
pressing the highlighted F-key or in the case of a single letter Alt and that
letter.
That's it
PS: hit F1 for the quick reference
-[2.2 Mysterious CAPS after exit bug & fix]----------------------------------
I have noticed that sometimes when using the Chaos Text Editor, that during
some instances that the shift key will lock. This causes the highlighting
features of the Chaos Text Editor to be active all the time. Following
exit, all typing from the keyboard is read as upper case regardless if the
CAPS lock is on or off.
To fix this problem:
hold down the both Shift keys, Alt & Ctrl and then release all at once.
Casing should return to normal
