Version 1.01
============
Version 1.01 introduced two additional cursor control functions:
Press Ctrl-Home to move the cursor to the upper left corner of the screen.
Press Ctrl-End to move the cursor to the end of the current note.
Version 1.1
===========
Version 1.1 introduced the Renumber Note function. This function
allows you to change the order of your notes.
Press Ctrl-F3 to renumber the current note. The cursor will move next
to "Note #". Type the new number of the current note, then press
<Enter>. The current note will be renumbered, and other notes will be
renumbered according to the sequence you selected. Since you are
rearranging existing notes, the number you enter must be the number
of an existing note. [Version 2.0 replaced this function with "Move
Note".]
Version 1.2
===========
Version 1.2 expanded the hotkey selections to include F11 and F12
combinations, and fixed the problem with the hotkey program in
version 1.1. Registered copies display "Registered" on the lower
right corner of the screen.
Version 1.3
===========
Version 1.3 added support for monochrome laptops that have a color
card. Type NOTEWARE /M to tell NoteWare that your laptop has a
monochrome screen. The Ctrl-left and Ctrl-right arrows now move
the cursor one word at a time. Ctrl-PgUp moves to the first
note; Ctrl-PgDn moves to the last. Major static "snow" on CGA's
is suppressed.
Version 1.4
===========
PRINTNW, a separate utility program to print notes, was added
in version 1.4. It allows you to choose one, many, or
all notes to print, on the printer number of your choice.
You can choose the number of lines per page, whether to
include the time & date of the printing, and whether each note
should be printed on a separate page.
Version 1.5
===========
The function key F6 (Note #) was changed to Index. The Index
displays the first line of text of each of your notes. If you have
notes than can fit on your screen, you may use the PgDn and PgUp keys
to scroll through the Index. You select a note by moving the highlight
bar to the desired note, and pressing <Enter>. This is a very simple
method and is recommended.
Version 1.51
============
Version 1.51 improved the searching functions. The search now begins
at the current cursor location in the current note. The search text
is preserved each time you perform a search. To search for the next
occurrence of the same string, press F7 and then <Enter>.
Version 1.6
===========
Version 1.6 introduced the Block Bright and Block Dim features. Press
F9 to anchor one corner of the block of text. The lower menu displays the
menu for the alt-key combinations. Move the cursor to the other corner
of the block of text and select one of the block operations. The
brightness of the blocked text can be changed to either dim or bright.
Version 1.7
===========
Version 1.7 introduced cut and paste. A block of text can be cut and
then optionally pasted to the same note or to a different note.
Text is also available for pasting when the F3 key has been used to
delete a line of text.
Version 1.8
===========
Version 1.8 added the ability to copy the blocked text. The blocked text
can be pasted at the current cursor location using the F4 key.
Version 1.8 also added the feature of saving a block of text to a file. If
the file exists, you will be asked whether to overwrite it or append to it.
Version 1.81
============
Version 1.81 enabled the Block Print function. Choose the "Save to File"
option on the alt-key menu, then enter LPT1 (or LPT2 etc.) as the
filename.
Version 1.9
===========
Version 1.9 shows the current cursor coordinates on line 24 of the screen.
Version 2.0
===========
Version 2.0 introduces the Block Export feature. This enables you
to pop up NoteWare over your word processor, edit and block text,
then export it directly into the word processing document.
Version 2.0 changes the "File Load" function to "View a File". The file
can be viewed, searched, and scrolled using the PgUp, PgDn, up-arrow
and down-arrow keys. You can then capture the screenful of text into
a note by pressing C (Capture). You can export a block of text from
the file directly to the current program by pressing E. Or press
Esc to return to your note.
After you have viewed a file, you can resume viewing it by pressing
Ctrl-R.
Perhaps you don't know the exact filename when you have pressed Ctrl-V.
You may type the DOS wildcards (* and ?) as part of the filename.
For instance, type C:\*.* to see all the files and directories
in your root directory on drive C. NoteWare will display dilenames
in a five-column format. Move the highlight bar to the desired
file or directory, then press <Enter>.
The F8 Capture key now asks "F to save file, I imports text into current
note, <Enter> to create a note, or Esc". If you press F, NoteWare will
ask you to type the name of the file that will receive the screen image.
If you press I, you can block off the text that you want to import
into the current note. Press <Enter> to capture the entire screen
into a new note. Note that all 25 lines will be captured if you choose
F (filename); a maximum of 23 lines can be captured with the other two
options.
The Note number is no longer displayed. Use the F6 Index function or
the PgUp and PgDn keys to select notes. You rearrange the order of your
notes by pressing Ctrl-M (Move Note) and then using the PgUp/PgDn keys
to select the new location for the note.
All Ctrl-key and Alt-key combinations have been changed to use
letters rather than function keys. The letters are easier to remember
and also easier to press.
