Notes for version 1.1
=====================
I am an occasional user of this program (ED.EXE). It is a Windows
interface to MSDOS based editors. Even today, I still find I do a
significant amount of work in the editor I took pains to learn so long
ago... But I was tired of carrying around VBRUN100.DLL (271264 bytes)
for a small utility program. After discovering that ED was a freeware
program, and that I had the source code, I decided to make a few very
small alterations and re-upload it in case there was anyone else that
needs it and doesn't have VB to recompile the source.
The files that should be present in this release:
-------------------------------------------------
README.TXT - This file.
ED.EXE - The Ed interface executable
ED.MAK - The Ed project file
ED.FRM - The Ed form source code (ASCII)
ED.FRX - The Ed form binary data
ED.BAS - The Ed global file
ED.TXT - ASCII documentation
ED.HLP - The Ed Windows Help file
ED.HPJ - The Ed Help Project file
ED.RTF - The Ed Help file in Rich Text Format (WinHelp Source code)
ED.BMP - The Ed Help file bitmap
New in Version 1.1
------------------
Config File: The ED.CTL file is no longer used. Option settings
are now stored with the Windows INI files in EDCTL.INI
Options: When checked, the "Exit After Starting Editor" option causes
ED.EXE to terminate after starting your MSDOS editor.
Help File: Version 1.0 used an ASCII text file as its help file, and
Notepad was called to view it. Back when its author wrote
this program, you were lucky to get ANY kind of help file.
Thank goodness its a little easier to make .HLP files
nowadays. Anyway, "Contents" has replaced "Reference".
Miscellaneous: A. The Maximize button has been removed. It served no purpose.
B. The border is now of type "Fixed Single". I didn't feel that
a sizable border was appropriate. You can of course change
it back in the source code...
