Description:

Smooth Editor is a DOS text editor with FAST smooth scrolling and complete
Windows(R) interface.
ASP:
----
This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle works
for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware- related problem with an ASP
member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP
Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but
does not provide technical support for members' products. Please write to the
ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442-9427 USA, FAX
616-788-2765 or send a CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman
70007,3536.
Troubleshooting:
----------------
If you have a slow system and you're experiencing trouble with smooth
scrolling, you should start Smooth Editor up with the /1 command-line option.
This should solve the problem.
Uninstalling Smooth Editor
--------------------------
If you want to remove Smooth Editor from your computer, you can just delete
the directory it's in. Smooth Editor leaves no data or code in other parts of
the system.
Whatsnew
--------
Version 2.0:
-Complete Windows(R) interface
If you execute the SEWIN.EXE program from Windows, Smooth Editor can
copy/cut/paste from and to Windows Applications, you can drag and drop
filenames from the File Manager and when you exit Windows, Smooth
Editor will close down like other Windows applications, with a Save
File query if necessary.
-Macro's
You can record, name, save and play back ten different macros.
-True Tabs
Tabs keep their position also when the text in front of them is
changed.
-Smart Word Wrapping
Wrapping also works with Delete, if there is no 'hard return' words
will be wrapped back when there is enough space.
-Justify function
This function joins lines within paragraphs to make neatly wrapped
text.
-Command line switches
Use SE/? for more details.
-Text viewing mode
Because of Smooth Scrolling, SE is very well suited as a text viewer.
-Improved color customization
There new are separate choices for the colors in the palette and the
usage of these colors in the program.
-Startup options
The SE.INI now has options to set startup modes.
-Immediate interpretation of SE.INI
When SE.INI is saved, the program can execute the settings
immediately, making it easier to customize the program.
-Replace function
-Bookmarks
-A large number of small improvements and a couple of bugfixes.
-The file COLORS.TXT is included with Smooth Editor. This file contains a
couple of premade color configurations.
Version 2.1:
-Fixed Smooth Editor to work under Windows95
-Smooth Editor only needs 370 kB of conventional memory for any file size
-Improved task switching under Windows 3.1 and Windows95
-Fixed a couple of minor bugs
Upgrading
---------
This version will not work together with the old SE.INI file. The old SE.INI
must be deleted or renamed. Sorry.
Demo:
-----
To see the demonstration, make sure the SE.INI is not in the path or in the
program directory. If it is you can just delete it, since SE will create a new
one with all the default values. When you now start SE, it will ask you if you
want to see the demo.

versions):
