- -- Welcome --
-
- Textra 1.13 is the User-Friendly Text Editor for the Amiga. Easy-to-
- use and full of features... background printing and ARexx script
- operation, UNDO, multiple windows in different fonts, convienient
- 'mouse-drag-select' paradigm, and the list goes on.
-
- Great emphasis (and effort) has gone into the user-interface to make
- Textra easy to get used to, learn and become proficient with. There
- is even a Tutorial ARexx script to help beginners get started (see
- below for kwik-start instructions for it).
-
- Textra is versatile enough to excel as a programmer's text editor
- as well as crank out the occasional book report or letter. This is
- because it includes some useful page/paragraph-formatting tools
- among it's ARexx scripts.
-
- Textra is very useful in the programmers arena. This version
- includes scripts that allow Textra to act as an integrated text editor
- for JForth Professional 3.x and HSPascal.
-
- To get started with a hard disk, simply launch the "Install_Textra"
- and it will prompt you through the installation of Textra and its
- support files.
-
- (FLOPPY USERS: If you are short on disk space, then at least
- temporarily assign rexx: to the scripts drawer
- of this package, which will allow you to...)
-
-
- Launch the Tutorial ARexx script as follows...
-
- 1. Launch Textra by double-clicking on its icon. (If you
- already have it up, proceed to step 3)
-
- 2. In the file-requester that appears, press CANCEL
-
- 3. Pull down the "Utilities, ARexx..." menu item.
-
- 4. In the ARexx requester that appears, enter:
-
- Tutorial
-
- into one of the string gadgets (if not already in one)
- followed by RETURN. The tutorial will soon greet you.
-
- Please refer to the 'docs' directory for full program documentation.
-
- Please refer to the accompanying 'Docs/WhatsNew.doc' file for detailed,
- categorized, new feature/bug fix information.
-
- I hope to be receiving your registration soon. Updates provided
- to all previously-registered Textra users upon request for $5.
-
- Enjoy!
