HoTMetaL 2.0 for Solaris
Thank you for your interest in HoTMetaL 2.0. This short document is an
addition to the printed manual and discusses:
- Supported extensions to HTML (Netscape and HTML 3.0) integrated
seamlessly
- Powerful and easy-to-use table editor
- Toolbars for menu commands and inserting HTML elements
- Improved HTML importing. The Open... command is more
flexible about correcting files that contain invalid HTML markup. This
functionality replaces the Import Through Filter command.
- More intuitive user interface:
- Insert Element and Surround commands combined
- "Return" key now splits elements
- Backspacing over a start-tag joins elements of the same type
- Backspacing over an end-tag deletes empty elements
- Surrounds text with required elements when you type
- Improved URL editor (including hotlist support)
- Preferences editor
- Point-and-click link creation
- Can be configured to use multiple browsers to preview pages and
multiple viewers to view graphics
- History list of last four opened files
This distribution is for Solaris 2.x. You will need about 7 Mb of free
disk space. You should have a minimum of 16 Mb of memory installed on your
system, and preferably 24 or 32 Mb.
Displaying images
- Images that do not occur on the same line as the start-tag of a block
element (for example, a paragraph, blockquote, heading, etc.) may be truncated.
This may affect the display of surrounding text. A workaround is to surround
these images with a paragraph.
- Sometimes images will be truncated if the document window is small. You
should try resizing the window.
Previewing
If you want to preview a new file or a template that has never been
saved you should save it before you preview. Otherwise some images may not be
displayed in the browser.
