WordGrab 1.4 Quick Guide
Copies Words From DOS Screen to Command Line
Copyright (c) 1995-1996 by David M. Wincelberg
Overview
WordGrab provides mouse-based copy and paste for the DOS screen.
In other words, with this program installed you will be able to
use your mouse to copy a filename or other text on the screen to
the command line. If you select a filename that is on the left
margin of a directory listing, WordGrab will paste it in the DOS-
usable form: FILENAME.EXT. For DOS 7.0, which comes with Windows
95, a long filename can be used at the command line if you
enclose it in double-quote marks.
Uses for WordGrab include selecting two files to compare,
renaming files, running a program, and choosing a file to edit or
word-process without using the file-open menu item. This program
would be especially helpful to slow or inaccurate typists. A
custom hotkey can be specified in the initialization file
WRDGRB.INI.
To use this program, copy the files in WRDGRB.ZIP to a
single directory. Type WRDGRB and press <Enter>. Then, when
there is a filename or other text on the screen that you wish to
copy to the command line, press <Ctrl>-<Right shift>-W (hold down
the first two keys, tap W, and then release all three keys.)
Next, use the mouse cursor to highlight text on the screen
by positioning it over the leftmost character you want to copy,
holding down the left mouse button, and moving the mouse to the
right one space past the word or other text. You may also double
left-click on a word to highlight it quickly. Double clicking on
a basename in a directory listing will highlight the entire
filename. (Basename is the part of a filename before the
optional dot and extension.) Then release the button and click
the left mouse button to paste the text or click the right mouse
button to cancel the selection. If you double click either
button, the cursor will reappear after the program performs the
desired action. See the table below. You may type characters
before and after highlighting, even if you have not clicked a
mouse button.

for the DOS screen.
WGINIT.EXE This program is called by WordGrab to read
and process the initialization file
(WRDGRB.INI) and the command line. It is
separate from WordGrab so that WordGrab's
permanent memory needs are smaller.
WRDGRB.INI Contains user-setable default values for
command-line parameters and a place for the
code to turn off the registration-reminder
screen.
WRDGRB.TXT The full documentation file.
WRDGRB.REG The registration file.
FILE_ID.DIZ Description of WordGrab to be used on-line or
in catalogs.
VENDINFO.DIZ Contains vendor-distribution and
registration-benefits information in a
computer-readable format. It also has
WordGrab installation instructions, much of
README.TXT, and a copy of the license
agreement. The first part of VENDINFO.DIZ is
human readable, while the second part
requires a program such as the free VENDVIEW.
