-
- Sub: FullTEView - Version 2.0
-
- Well, I don't know if anyone is interested, but I've finally gotten around to
- finishing (for now) this:
-
-
- UFullTEView, Version 2.0 -- in the Class Room Folder
-
- UFullTEView is a subclass of TTEView which implements the full Apple Human
- Interface Guidelines for text editing (intelligent cut & paste, modifier keys
- with arrow keys, intelligent definition of "word" for double-clicking, etc).
-
- Everything is (supposed to be) Script Manager compatible.
-
- It also provides full access to Font, Size, and Style menus. Also, Subscripts
- and Superscripts are added to the usual Style choices. And finally, cursors,
- carets and highlights will be *SLANTED* for italicized text!
-
- ************************* This is for MacApp 2.0ß9 !!! ***********************
-
- Now that I've finally gotten THIS done it's about time for me to switch over to
- 2.0 Final (or 2.0pXXX) (or whatever it's called this week). So I'll hopefully
- get to the 2.0 whatever version during the next few months. In the meantime,
- you should ******* N O T ******* use this with 2.0 Final. I'm pretty sure there
- are some BIG incompatibilities.
-
- *******************************************************************************
-
- NOTE: In the past, contributors to the Class Room have never gotten much
- feedback from the *many* downloaders of their code. This probably means that
- everyone says, "As soon as I get a chance to review and understand the code,
- I'll give it a try. And then I'll let the author know what I think."
-
- UFullTEView is an excellent example of code that you will *NEVER* get a chance
- to fully review, much less understand. (Even after overriding half the methods
- of TTEView, there are large sections -- such as how paste works -- that *I*
- can't understand for more than fifteen minutes at a time.) Hence,
-
- 1) If you think this stuff would be useful to you, just go ahead and try it.
- You simply subclass TFullTEView or TFullSubSuperTEView instead of TTEView.
-
- 2) If you want to see this for 2.0 Final, please encourage me.
