HERE ARE SOME OF THE MOST POPULAR FEATURES IN BOXER
(see below for full ordering details)
* Color Syntax Highlighting displays program code for all major
languages in user-definable colors. Reserved words, comments,
constants and symbols are highlighted in selected colors to
show context. This feature can dramatically improve your
editing efficiency!
* Multi-level Undo and Redo: make mistakes with impunity!
Changes of all types can easily be undone and "redone". Up to
4,096 changes can be restored, if you choose!
* Multiple Files and Windows: edit files through overlapping or
tiled windows, and easily move text among windows.
* Full Mouse Support: use the mouse (optionally) to mark text,
select from menus, or select, move, resize, close or scroll
windows.
* Reconfigurable Keyboard: select one of the popular keyboard
layouts supplied, or create/perfect your own. The pull-down
menus and on-line help will change automatically to reflect
your new key assignments!
* Block Operations: mark text by columns, characters or lines
and then: cut, copy, append, paste, delete, write, print,
indent, sort, detab, invert, total, average, fill, or perform
case conversions: upper, lower, capitalize or swap case!
* Compile Programs from within the editor and be placed
automatically on errant lines for correction. Popular
compilers are supported; others can be easily added.
* Search and Replace: globally or selectively, with wildcard
expressions, even across all edited files!
* On-line Help provides context sensitive assistance at any
time. Summon help from within the pull-down menus to index
directly to the help section for the command at the cursor.
* Keystroke Macros: define up to 26 macros which are
automatically loaded for use. Use the supplied utility program
to create/edit macros textually for later playback.
* Word Processing support includes wordwrap, paragraph reformat
with 4 text justification styles, pagination, headers and
footers, page numbering, double spacing, print a range of
pages, print multiple copies, etc.
* User Configurable: a multitude of option flags provide a
simple and effective means of customizing the editor's
operation. Options can even be designated by file extension,
to configure specially for different file types!
* Video Modes: select from 6 alternate screen sizes for
EGA/VGA, or let the editor adapt to whatever screen mode is
active on startup - up to 200 columns by 100 rows! Also:
built-in support for changing UltraVision modes on-the-fly.
* Also: pop-up calendar, multi-base calculator and ASCII chart,
DOS Shell, auto-indent, brace matching, visible space mode,
synchronized scrolling and much, much more!
HOW TO REGISTER BOXER:
There are several different ways to register BOXER. Please
use whichever method is most convenient for you. In all
cases you will receive the latest version available at the
time your order is received. Read the sections that follow
and the registration forms below for other benefits of
registration. (The registration reminders do not appear in
registered copies of BOXER.)
UPGRADE DISCOUNTS:
Registered users of BOXER are notified by mail when major
upgrades are released. Upgrades are available to registered
users at a discount; typically about $10.00 per release.
The upgrade notice sent will detail the major features
contained in the new release and how to order it. Users who
register within 30 days of major release can order the new
release for just a small shipping charge.
BONUS PROGRAM, NEWSLETTER:
A free bonus program is provided to all Registered Users of
BOXER. LEFTHAND MAN is a program written by BOXER's author
which facilitates DOS file operations and speeds directory
browsing. LEFTHAND MAN is not distributed as Shareware, and
is not otherwise available. We will also send a copy of our
newsletter, RINGSIDE, which features news items and tips of
interest to users of BOXER.
SPELLING CHECKER:
An evaluation copy of the popular Shareware spelling checker
"ShareSpell" by Acropolis Software will also be sent when
ordering directly from the author. BOXER is shipped with a
default macro set in which the Ctrl-S macro automatically
calls ShareSpell to spell-check the file being edited. The
pair work perfectly together! (Remember: ShareSpell must be
registered with Acropolis Software if used beyond their
evaluation period.)
SPECIAL OFFERS:
Registered Users of BOXER are entitled to receive a discount
on a subscription to Shareware Magazine. The regular yearly
subscription rate of $23.70 is reduced to just $14.95. A
toll-free number and special Order Code will be provided
upon registration. Full details about a special offer for
membership on CompuServe will also be provided. The offer
provides for FREE sign-up, a $15.00 usage credit and a
complimentary subscription to CompuServe Magazine.

or word processor, you can save $5.00 when you register
BOXER. Simply enclose a brief note stating the name,
version and serial number of the package you registered, and
why you decided to switch to BOXER. You can save $5.00 off

BOXER on several computers within an installation. Site
licensing can provide considerable savings versus making
