The GMUtant Editor
version 1.08
(c) 1996, Clyde W. Grotophorst, GMUtant Software
This is an ASCII editor that provides you a bit more
functionality than the Windows notepad. Hope you find
the program useful. Feel free to distribute it to others if
they have a need for an ASCII editor that:
- edits files of almost unlimited size.
- supports drag & drop movement of text within a document
- supports fixed as well as proportional fonts
- supports column mode with fixed font (e.g., SYSTEM)
- offers find and replace
- supports multi-level "undo"
- allows you to edit several files simultaneously
- supports changing fonts
- supports the clipboard
- offers a toolbar for easy access to most options
- provides a rudimentary printing option
- limited support for HTML coding (with right-mouse popup menus)
and more...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
update note:
Release 1.08 saves the font color..previously this
was omitted. Thanks to Noah Kaplan for pointing
this out...it was (unlike many suggestions) an
easy one to fix/implement.
Release 1.07 adds an HTML pop-up menu system. Toggle
right-mouse popup menus from toolbar (under options)
then when editing a document, pressing the right
mouse button will pop up a menu of common HTML
codes (bold, italic, ordered list, paragraph, etc.).
Left click on the element you want inserted in your
text. For HTML elements that go on either end of
a text string (e.g., <B>bold text</B>), the editor
inserts both the beginning and ending tag at the
cursor...use the drag&drop feature to move one of
the tags to the desired location.
Statement added to GMUEDIT.INI
[Miscellaneous]
HTMLMenusOn=Yes
---
Release 1.06 Added a few shortcut keys (e.g., CTRL-P
to print, CTRL-F for find). Improved sizing of windows
when opening existing files--release 1.05 wasn't always
using the settings from GMUEDIT.INI.
---
Release 1.05 Added a SAVE FILE button to the
Toolbar. Also added ability to store window position
for the notepad window as well as the EDITOR
main window. Set the size of the notepad where
you like it, then under options, select the SAVE
WINDOW POSITIONS choice to store the
size(s) in GMUEDIT.INI.
New entries in GMUEDIT.INI:
[NoteWinSize]
NoteWidth=8970
NoteHeight=7845
---
Release 1.04 stores wrap & wrap whole words settings
between sessions. Each time you toggle the value of
these settings, the state is written to your GMUEDIT.INI
file. When the program next starts, it begins with the
values as they were when you last exited the program.
---
Release 1.03 improves printing. Earlier releases could
not print a new file from the edit window--if it said "New File"
on the title bar, the editor wouldn't print it. There's still
much room for improvement in printing support so stay
tuned.
-------
A Visual Basic application, the GMUtant Editor is based
on the Early Morning Editor Control, distributed via SHAREWARE
by Ted Stockwell (Compuserve ID 74454,1002). If you're a
VB programmer in need of a text control, the $ 30.00 you
spend to register Mr. Stockwell's work is money well spent.
Here are the files included with the GMUtant Editor:
GMUEDIT.EXE - the program
CMDIALOG.VBX - the common dialog control
EMEDIT.VBX - the early morning editor control
VBRUN300.DLL - the VB 3.0 runtime DLL
(this is not included in all versions of the ZIP file)
GMUEDIT.TXT - this text file.
A configuration file (GMUEDIT.INI) is created in your
Windows directory (typically C:\WINDOWS). Here's
what's contained there:
[Recent Files]
this lists the full path to the 4 files you've edited
most recently. They show up under the FILE
menu on the main editing window
RecentFile1=
RecentFile2=
RecentFile3=
RecentFile4=
[Font Info]
if you ask GMUEDIT to store the font you select
as your default font, the info is written here. A "-1"
value means true, a "0" means false.
FontName=MS Sans Serif
FontSize=10
FontBold=-1
FontItalic=0
[WindowPosition]
This is where we store your main window size and
postion. Anytime you Set Window Position this info
is updated.
Top=2865
Height=8085
Left=1905
Width=9120
[Miscellaneous]
LeftMargin= put a number from 0 to whatever here. This
one you have to do manually. Affects the onscreen
display, not the printout!
ShowToolBarOnStartup= Yes or No. This gets set
one way or the other each time you turn the toolbar
on or off via the options menu. Turn off the toolbar
and this will be set to "No." Assuming you don't turn
it back on during a session, it will be off when you
next start the program. This is new in 1.02
WordWrapOnStartup= Yes or No
WrapWholeWords=Yes or No
