╘HIS WORD PROCESSOR IS DESIGNED FOR USE BY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PUPILS. ╔T SHOULD FUNCTION ON ALL ├OMMODORE COMPUTERS EXCEPT THE ╓╔├ 20. ╔F DISKS ARE USED, THE SOURCE PROGRAM MUST BE SAVED ON THE SPECIFIC COMBINATION OF COMPUTER AND DISK DRIVE BEING EMPLOYED. ╞ILES MAY BE READ FROM A ├64 AND 1540/1541 DRIVE BY A ╨┼╘ AND 4040/2031 WITH PRINTER, BUT THE WRITING OF FILES CAN'T BE TREATED IN THE SAME MANNER. ╫ORDS WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE ENDS OF LINES WILL BE REFORMATTED TO THE NEXT LINE, BUT ALL OTHER SPACING AND INDENTING WILL BE LEFT TO THE PUPIL. ├URSOR CONTROLS SHOULD BE USED FOR ALL SUCH PURPOSES, AS WELL AS FOR CORREC- TIONS; THE INSERT KEY, HOWEVER, WILL ONLY OPERATE IF THERE IS A SPACE AT THE END OF THE CURRENT LINE (OR IF THE DELETE KEY PROVIDES A SPACE). ╠INING IS AUTOMATICALLY NOTED AT THE TOP. ╫HEN THE PUPIL IS FINISHED (OR WORK IS INTERRUPTED), THE <┬┴├╦ ┴╥╥╧╫> SHOULD BE TAPPED AND ╞ MAY THEN BE SELECTED TO FILE THE STORY. ├ERTAIN LANGUAGE TOPICS ARE ASSUMED TO BE COVERED IN A MANNER WHICH IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE LEVEL OF THE PUPIL. ╙TORY OUTLINING AND PROOF- READING, WHILE IMPORTANT INSOFAR AS THE FINAL PRODUCT IS CONCERNED, ARE NOT WITHIN THE DOMAIN OF THIS PROGRAM. ╘HE PUPIL SHOULD, THEREFORE, RECEIVE A MODICUM OF GUIDANCE BEFORE ENTERING A STORY (ESPECIALLY WITH THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPER SPELLING, CAPITALIZATION, PUNCTUATION, AND GRAMMAR). ╘HE FOLLOWING ITEMS RELATE TO CORRECT WRITING FORM, AND THEY WILL REQUIRE SPECIAL ATTENTION. (A) ╧NE SPACE MUST BE LEFT AFTER PUNCTUATION, SUCH AS A COMMA, WITHIN A SENTENCE. (B) ╘WO SPACES SHOULD BE LEFT AFTER A PERIOD AT THE CONCLUSION OF A SENTENCE. (C) ┼ACH PARAGRAPH, BEYOND THE FIRST, SHOULD BE INDENTED FIVE SPACES FOR THE SAKE OF EASY READING. (D) ╬O BLANK LINES ARE ALLOWED IN THIS PROGRAM. ╙UCH LINES ARE USED TO SIGNAL THE END OF A STORY FILE. ╘HERE ARE FOUR "VISIBLE" OPTIONS FOR ═┴╔╬ ═┼╬╒: ╫╥╔╘┼-╞╔╠┼-╠╧┴─-╨╥╔╬╘. ╘HE USER WILL FIND THE SEQUENCES, (A) ╫╥╔╘┼-╞╔╠┼-╤╒╔╘, (B) ╠╧┴─-┼─╔╘ (╫╥╔╘┼) -╞╔╠┼-╤╒╔╘, AND (C) ╠╧┴─-╨╥╔╬╘-╤╒╔╘, QUITE EASY TO USE AFTER A LITTLE PRACTICE. ╘HE AUTOMATIC OPTION TO ╤╒╔╘ IS FOLLOWED BY A PROMPT FOR A NEW WRITER. (╘HE USER IS ADVISED TO PRESS ╚ DURING THE ═┴╔╬ ═┼╬╒ DISPLAY, IN ORDER TO GET ╚┼╠╨ WITH ADDITIONAL COMMANDS.) ╔N THE PRINT-OUT, THE ╘╔╘╠┼ AND ╘┼╪╘ WILL BE ENHANCED, BUT THE PUPIL'S NAME WILL BE CENTRED BENEATH THE TITLE IN REGULAR TYPE. ╒NENHANCED NUMBERS ARE AUTOMATICALLY PRINTED AT THE TOP RIGHT OF ALL ADDITIONAL PAGES. ╞INALLY, THE USER WILL DISCOVER THAT THE ╞╔╠┼ ╬┴═┼ FEATURE IS VERY USEFUL WHEN DISKS ARE USED. ┼ACH FILE NAME MAY BE MADE UNIQUELY DIFFERENT (INITIALS, NUMBERS, ETC.) AND RECORDED ON A SHEET (IF DESIRED), SO THAT THE SAME PUPIL MAY HAVE MORE THAN ONE STORY ON THE DISK ┴╬─ SEVERAL PUPILS MAY USE THE SAME TITLE FOR STORIES. (╘HE STORY FILES SHOULD, NEVERTHELESS, BE PRINTED AND ERASED REGULARLY.) ╚AVE FUN! ^
