- * QASCII.QM -- QEdit macros to implement an ASCII chart in QEdit 2.08
- *
- * Author: Tim Farley
- * Date: 28-Aug-1989
- *
- * INSTRUCTIONS: Convert this file to a QEdit loadable macro file with QMAC:
- *
- * QMAC QASCII.MAC QASCII.QM B N
- *
- *
- * NOTES: (1) The QASCII.LST file can be free form, but it should have
- * ONE ascii character per line, and the character itself should
- * appear between parentheses, like this: (*). The rest of the
- * line can contain anything you like: other representations of
- * that character, numeric conversions, etc.
- * (2) In the macros below, be sure to edit 'QASCII.LST' to reflect
- * the full path specification to your ASCII chart on your disk.
- * (3) You could add both of these to your QCONFIG.DAT file. This
- * would make them a permanent part of your Q.EXE, always at
- * the ready.
- * (4) You might want to mark your ASCII chart read-only in DOS to
- * prevent accidentally editing it while using these macros.
- *
- *
- * Control-F2 will bring up the QASCII.LST file in a window below the current
- * one, with the current character highlighted.

- * Control-F3 is a variation: it will bring the description of the character
- * under the cursor up onto the screen in a "box" near the cursor
- * line. The user can press Return or Escape to continue editing.

- * Control-F4 is the reverse: bring up the ASCII chart, move the cursor to
- * the character you want, press RETURN, and that character will
- * be inserted into the original file. The user can also press
- * Escape to abort.
