    INSTALLATION  : PROINST.EXE
    ────────────
    ProWriter comes with a program PROINST that can  be  used  to  set  the
    following program defaults:

         Video Mode
         Directory Mask
         Mouse Use and Sensitivity
         Screen Colors
         Screen Flicker
         Key repeat and delay rates
         Use of Auto-Detect EGA/VGA

    This installation program actually Modifies PRO.EXE instead of using  a
    separate  installation  file.  Therefore be sure that PRO.EXE is in the
    same directory when running PROINST. Simply type PROINST at the command
    line and select options from an on-screen menu.  When  finished,  press
    <Esc>  and  then  Y  to update PRO.EXE. The file PROINST.DAT will store
    your currently active  defaults  for  the  installation  program  only.
    PRO.EXE  is  now  customized  to  your settings. These settings are now
    ProWriter's defaults unless otherwise specified  with  a  command  line
    parameter.

    COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS
    ───────────────────────
    Command line parameters are optional program  directives  specified  at
    the  time  the  program is run. They follow the program name and do not
    need to be  in  any  particular  order.  The  following  items  may  be
    specified:

    Parameter                 Function
    ---------                 --------
    /CGA                      Sets video to 80x25 display
    /EGA                      Sets video to 80x43 display
    /VGA                      Sets video to 80x50 display
    /C132                     Sets video for Orchid's 132x44 (Tseng Labs)

    /S=<Col>x<Row>            Sets Custom screen dimensions for extended mode.

    /V=<Mode>                 Sets Video card to specified mode number.

    /M                        No mouse driver installed.

    <Filename>                Filename to load and edit.


    Note that all options except the filename are preceded by a slash  (/).
    They  may  be  typed  in  any order after the program name. (eg: PRO /m
    /ega) Characters may be in upper or lower case.
@12

    Of the preset  modes,  /CGA,  /EGA  and  /VGA  specify  standard  modes
    available for all compatible video display adapters. C132 however is an
    extended  mode  offered  by  the Orchid Designer VGA card. This mode is
    therefore incompatible with  other  cards  not  using  the  Tseng  Labs
    extended  mode. You can still use any textmode your card offers however
    by using the /S and /V parameters to force video mode compatibility.

    /S=<col>x<row>            Screen Dimensions Parameter

    This option lets you tell ProWriter what the screen dimensions will  be
    for  program  startup  (eg:  /s=80x60  means  80columns x 60rows). This
    parameter does not actually set the Video card mode it only  tells  the
    program that this will be the dimensions of the screen upon startup. It
    is  up  to  you  to  be  sure that the proper mode will be in affect by
    either setting the video mode before running or using /V=<Mode> to have
    ProWriter automatically set the Video Card for you on startup.  IF  you
    don't  want to use /V to have the Video mode set by ProWriter, you must
    be sure that the current mode matches your screen dimensions  specified
    with  /S=<col>x<row>.  Use  the program supplied by the manufacturer to
    set the TextMode in that case.

    /V=<mode>                 Video Mode (SET DISPLAY ADAPTER)

    This parameter specifies a number that will refer to the  proper  video
    mode  for  your  display  adapter.  It will reset your card to the mode
    number specified. (eg: /V=34)

    This option is usually used in conjunction with  the  /S  parameter  to
    allow  the use of any extended textmode up to 132 columns wide. (Actual
    line length is limited to 128 columns,  however  specify  actual  width
    when using the /S option) If the /S option is used without /V, then the
    video  mode  should already have been set by some other means like from
    DOS command line or with a batch file.

    NOTE: Use this option with caution. By  specifying  an  incorrect  mode
    your  computer  could  lock  up  and  be  required to be turned OFF and
    completely re-booted. Two programs, GETMODE and SETMODE are included to
    allow you to test your card for the proper mode number.

    GETMODE.EXE - This program will tell you the mode number and width your
    display adapter is currently in. It is used as a means  of  determining
    a  mode  number  for use with the /V=<Mode> parameter. For
    example, if you wanted to use an extended mode, like 132x44, but didn't
    know the mode number to use for the  /v  option,  you  would  use  this
    program to determine what your specific mode number would be. First set
    your  video  adapter to the textmode you want to use. You should have a
    program to enable you to do this. Then type GETMODE at the DOS  command
    line  to  see  what  mode number is currently in effect. To see if this
    number will work with the /V option, use SETMODE <Mode> to test it.  If
    Setmode  is successful, then ProWriter will be able to set your card to
    this mode when using /V.

    Example: pro

    Program starts using all defaults currently in effect. Directory shown.
@12


    Example: pro /ega MyText.txt

    This will load the file Mytext.txt and use EGA 80x43 mode. It will also
    attempt to use the mouse driver unless no mouse driver was specified in
    the installation program PROINST.

    Example: pro MyProg.pas /s=132x44 /v=34 /m

    This will load MyProg.pas using a 132column by 44row screen.  ProWriter
    will set the Video Card to mode #34. No mouse will be used.

    Example: pro /s=80x60

    Starts ProWriter expecting screen preset to an 80x60 textmode. No  file
    is  specified  so the current directory is shown. Mouse will be used if
    mouse default true. The actual 80x60 mode, in this case, should already
    be active before program is started. This could have been done using  a
    batch file.

    NOTE: If an EGA 43 or a VGA 50 row Textmode is selected, via  on-screen
    or  through command parameters, and the actual number of rows on screen
    does not match that mode, the  Textmode  will  default  to  the  actual
    number of rows detected on screen, unless disabled through PROINST.EXE.

    MOUSE OPERATION: 3-button(preferred) MicroSoft compatible mouse.
    ───────────────
    If the command-line option /m is not specified, ProWriter WILL  try  to
    test  and  see  if  a  mouse driver is loaded unless set otherwise with
    PROINST. If the mouse driver is found, the mouse will then be ready for
    use by the program, responding in the main-screen, editor  and  Graphix
    Window.  However, a driver MUST be present for it to work properly. The
    Mouse cursor itself does not blink but a character under it will.  This
    is  a software cursor. If mouse use is inactivated, the always blinking
    hardware cursor is used.

    WARNING: If you're not using a mouse or do not have the driver  loaded,
    be  sure  to  either  specify  NO  mouse with PROINST or specify the /m
    option when running the program. (eg: pro /m). Otherwise ProWriter will
    attempt to locate the mouse driver and may, on  some  computers,  crash
    and require the computer to be turned off and re-booted.

    NEW FILE MANAGEMENT ROUTINES!
    ─────────────────────────────
    With ProWriter you can now Copy, Move and Delete  multiple  files  from
    the  main  screen.  In  addition,  you  can  Make,  Rename  and  Delete
    directories making file and disk management a breeze. ProWriter  speeds
    through  disk  copying  by using as much as 64K of available memory for
    disk buffer transfers. Even with the editor  full,  you  still  have  a
    guaranteed 10240 bytes from the Stack that can be used.

    To Mark/Unmark files you can press the:

      <SpaceBar> to Mark/Unmark a single file or
      <F5> to Mark all
      <F6> to UnMark all

    To perform an operation on them press <O> for the  Options  Window  and
    then:

      <C>opy
      <M>ove   or
      <D>elete

    the selected files. Press Esc to Exit from any point and F1 to abort  a
    procedure-in-process.  For  example,  to  move a set of selected files,
    you would press <O> <M>, for <O>ptions <M>ove.

    IMPORTANT NOTES:

    Move will delete the source-file ONLY if  successfully  copied  to  the
    destination  with  no errors reported by the system during OR after the
    process. This means safety and that you can move from ANY drive to  any
    other. No limitations.

    Files are only copied or moved if the Source file has a later date than
    any Destination file matching the Source name. This is very  useful  if
    copying  many  files  within which only a few need to be updated on the
    destination drive. If another file exists with the  same  name  on  the
    Destination,  but  the Source file isn't any newer than the Destination
    file ProWriter will not rewrite over it and just skips that file.

    MSDOS remembers  what  directory  you  where  last  logged  to  on  any
    previously  logged  drive.  What this means is that when asked where to
    copy or move the marked file(s), you need only specify the  drive  (eg:
    d:) if wanting the files to go to the last directory you were logged to
    on  that  drive.  In other words the entire path <dr:\path\path> is not
    needed  if  you  were  already  logged  to  that  drive  and  directory
    previously.  Of  course, you can specify any path you want if needed. I
    usually find it easier though to simply log to the dr:\path I want, and
    then Log back to the Source path, mark the files  needed  and  Copy  or
    Move  them  by typing only the drive letter and colon when prompted for
    the destination.

    MAKE, RENAME AND DELETE DIRECTORIES
    ───────────────────────────────────

      Main Screen Keys:

         <Alt> M                 Make directory

         <R>                     Rename directory or file

         <Del>                   Delete directory or single file


    MAIN-PROGRAM: PRO.EXE
    ─────────────────────
    ProWriter is a powerful text  editor  in  a  small  package.  The  main
    execution  file  is  relatively  small  and  loads  quickly.  All other
    utilities are loaded from a Disk,  Ramdisk  or  EMS  memory  only  when
    needed.  This is either done automatically with Overlays or through the
    use of the eXecution option that can share available  memory  with  the
    Editor.

    ProWriter has the usual editing and block commands that you  need-  and
    then  some.  Be sure to review the reference sheet file PROKEYS.DOC and
    try out all the different modes and functions  of  the  editor.  It  is
    equipped with many useful features to manipulate your text in a variety
    of ways.

    You can display text in standard as  well  as  extended  textmodes.  To
    change  modes  after the program is running, use <Ctrl> S from the main
    screen to select your display.

    Any of the menu items or files/directories may be selected by  pointing
    to  it  with  the cursor. You can use the arrows or a mouse to move the
    cursor around. Use <Ctrl> ->, <Ctrl> <-, Home and End  keys  for  extra
    convenience when using the Keyboard. Try it. If you need more info on a
    file, like file-size, press F2 with the cursor on that file.

    Pressing enter on an item or using the mouse's left button will  select
    the file, directory or menu item. If a file was selected (in cyan) then
    it  will  be loaded. If a directory was selected (in red) then a change
    to that directory will be made. Pressing  the  mouse  button  or  enter
    again on a file already loaded will put you in the Editor. Press E to
    edit a loaded file regardless of cursor position.

    Use the F1 key or mouse middle button to backtrack through the  current
    directory (same as CD ..) Press 'L' to change the current logged drive.
    Use Esc or mouse right button to exit the editor or program.

    One thing that you will want to do, if you have a  printer,  is  get  a
    printout  of  the  current  editor  keys. However, you may need to edit
    STAR.KEY to match your current printer. Be sure that you save and  keep
    this  file  in  one  of  your PATH directories. It is used by ProWriter
    printing and STARDOC and will need to be accessed.
@12


    When editing STAR.KEY to match your printer, be sure and  only  replace
    codes  needed for your printer and leave the first 17 codes in the same
    order. This is because STARDOC will  expect  to  find  certain  printer
    functions  to  be certain codes. If you want though, you can delete and
    arrange them how you want. StarDoc just won't send the proper codes  if
    any codes before #18 are deleted or rearranged.

    After you have done this, print out the file PROKEYS.DOC from the  main
    menu  by loading it and then pressing P to print. Be sure that STAR.KEY
    is in a directory specified in the PATH variable of  your  AUTOEXEC.BAT
    file.

    GRAPHICS                       < Overlay >
    ════════
    Now you can easily enter graphic characters  into  your  text  file  by
    pressing  F6  in  the editor. It will allow you to choose the character
    you want using the mouse or arrow keys. When the cursor is pointing  to
    the  one  you want, either press Enter, F6 or the mouse left button. To
    abort press Esc or the mouse right button. Home and End keys also work.
    Unless you aborted the selection, you will then  be  in  GRAPHIX  ENTRY
    MODE.  While  in  this  mode,  any  alpha/numeric key will produce this
    character you selected, however all  other  keys  retain  their  normal
    function so you can move around, delete, insert ect. The space-bar will
    still  enter  blanks.  To choose a different character, press F6 again.
    The Esc key can be pressed at any time to abort Graphix mode. Enjoy and
    be creative!


    PROGRAM/BATCH FILE EXECUTION!          < Borrows Memory >
    ────────────────────────────
    ProWriter can now use all available memory for execution of  any  .EXE,
    .COM  or  .BAT(batch  file) directly from the main menu. Press X to get
    the Program  Execution  screen.  If  the  cursor  was  pointing  at  an
    executable  file, it will be shown at the "Filename?" prompt, otherwise
    it will be blank. At this point either type in a new name or use the Up
    arrow to scroll through the last six programs/parameters run.  This  is
    your  eXecution  Pick-List. It will come in very handy! Also use F9 and
    F10 to scroll up and down the list and F1 to directly execute the  file
    shown. If using a mouse you can point to the list item and click the LB
    to select it, and then point to "Execute" and click the LB again to run
    it.

    New files that have been run will be added to the list.  The  Pick-List
    always  contains the last six programs/parameters run (eg: FIFO). Press
    <Esc> or mouse RB to abort.

    When entering a filename, it is not necessary to type the entire  name.
    Typing  just the root name (eg: Pro), as you would from the DOS command
    line is sufficient. ProWriter will search the current directory and all
    others specified in the Path variable of your Autoexec.bat file.
@12


    The only  difference  is  that  you  don't  follow  the  filename  with
    parameters  for  the  program. Instead, a second prompt is supplied for
    any parameters. Batch files  are  automatically  executed  through  the
    command  line  processor.  After  your program has run, control will be
    returned to ProWriter and the Prompt <Press any Key to  Continue>  will
    be  displayed. Press any key or mouse button to continue and your right
    where you left off.

    It is alright to have text already loaded before execution  of  another
    program (child process). ProWriter will allocate only the unused memory
    for  execution  of  the  new  program. Upon returning to ProWriter, all
    memory is returned to the editor. It is possible to be editing one file
    with ProWriter and then, from the main screen, eXecute PRO.EXE again to
    edit yet a different file. After editing that file, Press  <Esc>  twice
    and  return  to editing the originally loaded file right where you left
    off. Depending on the size of the files, you could even do this 3 or  4
    levels deep if you wanted. Batch files can be created and executed from
    the same screen.

    The current Textmode is not  changed  before  execution  of  the  child
    process.  If  the  textmode  needs  to  be  switched before running the
    program, create a batch file that uses VMode xxx or some other means of
    switching modes before executing the program or use <Ctrl> S  from  the
    main  screen  to  switch modes before executing. Most programs will not
    require this though. The editor textmode is reset on return.

    IMPORTANT: You are not asked to save any changed file in the editor  so
    it  is up to you to save the file if needed. Under normal circumstances
    control will return to ProWriter with any file  still  in  the  editor.
    However, if the newly run program were to crash for some reason and you
    had unsaved text in the editor, it would be lost. The best policy is to
    experiment  with  any  new  programs  at  first, saving all work before
    executing them. However, be sure to ALWAYS save the editor file if  the
    executed  program  will  be  using  that file for an input file, like a
    Spell-Checker or Compiler program.

    NOTE: If you get an  Insufficient  Memory  message,  it  may  still  be
    possible  to  execute  the  file  by freeing some memory. From the main
    screen press W and enter. The more text you have  in  the  editor,  the
    less  memory  you  have  for  executing  other programs. { The enhanced
    program will swap any text out to expanded memory if available. }

    PROGRAMMERS: Use eXecute to run command line Compilers  and  Assemblers
    from the main screen. (eg: MASM, Pascal, C++ ect)

    MARGIN JUSTIFICATION           < Overlay >
    ────────────────────
    Version 3.0 has  integrated  this  program  into  PRO.EXE.  It  can  be
    selected  by  pressing 'M' at the main menu when a file is loaded. This
    unit will justify your right and left  margins  to  specified  columns.
    Further,  you specify what area(s) within the text to process using !@+
    and !@-

    !@+ starts processing, !@- discontinues it
@12


    It will create a new file with the extension  .NEW  (.TXT  if  .NEW  in
    source  name).  This is convenient for the program as well as the user.
    If the newly formatted text is not what you expected,  you  still  have
    the  original  file  that  can be edited and then reprocessed. The only
    thing to remember is that these codes should be on the first column  of
    a  line  with  nothing else on that line. They are deleted from the new
    file created. The default for margin-maker is !@+ (process ON)

    PRINT PROGRAM: STAR.EXE        < Overlay >
    ───────────────────────
    The printing program is also integrated  with  version  3.0  using  the
    overlay  file  PRO.OVR.  However,  a standalone version is included for
    running from the command line. It doesn't just print out your text, but
    lets you use special codes (@xx...) to send  any  printer  command  you
    need.  Customize them for your printer by editing the file STAR.KEY. If
    multiple printers are used, keep a copy  of  their  codes  in  separate
    files. When switching printers, copy the corresponding file to STAR.KEY
    to replace it.

    Look at PROKEYS.DOC. It's a simple example of how to use STAR with your
    text and printer. Any printer function your printer offers can be  made
    available.  Note that no spacing is required between codes or codes and
    text. A code is recognized by star using an  @  symbol  followed  by  a
    number  referencing that code or macro. The macro is between 1 and four
    characters long and is specified in the STAR.KEY file. This file should
    always be in one of the directories of your current PATH variable.

    CODES PRINTOUT: STARDOC.EXE
    ───────────────────────────
    To get a nice printout of your current reference numbers used by  STAR,
    ProWriter's printing program, edit STAR.KEY leaving unused commands and
    changing  any  others  that you can to fit your printer. Then just type
    STARDOC at the DOS command line. It will print out the STAR.KEY file as
    long as it resides in the current or one of the PATH directories.

    EMS MEMORY / RAM DISK USAGE
    ───────────────────────────
    ProWriter can automatically sense if the LIM  (Lotus  Intel  MicroSoft)
    driver  is  installed  and  will make use of it for loading the overlay
    file PRO.OVR. Once loaded, all overlay calls will work at direct memory
    speeds. Also, if using a RAM-DISK you can have PRO.EXE  and/or  PRO.OVR
    load via RAM-DISK by specifying the directory where they are located in
    the  PATH  variable  of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. eg: path D:\;C:\; would
    specify Ram-Disk drive D:\ to be searched first when looking for a file
    to run. ProWriter will look first in the  current  directory  for  it's
    overlay  file,  and then it uses the DOS PATH variable. If it cannot be
    found then the overlay functions will be inactive. So be sure that  the
    file  PRO.OVR  is  located  either  in  the  current  directory  or one
    specified in the DOS PATH variable.

    OVERLAY FILE: PRO.OVR
    ─────────────────────
    Overlay file PRO.OVR is used  to  maximize  the  availability  of  main
    memory for use in loading and editing files. It is loaded if one of the
    following options are selected:

         -Printing program          menu key P
         -Margin Maker              menu key M
         -File Info window          menu key F2 or I
         -Graphix Window            editor key F6
