OTHER PROGRAMS FROM SOFTWARE BY SEIDMAN
Software by Seidman publishes a number of shareware utilities for use
with Version 5.x of WordPerfect. Most work with 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2,
although a few cannot be used with 5.0 and a few cannot be used with
the WordPerfect 5.1 and 5.2 for Windows.
These programs are distributed through the usual shareware channels,
and you may obtain them that way and try them before you register.
If you prefer, you can obtain the programs directly from us by sending
the license fee and $2.00 for shipping and handling. The programs are
described below, and an order form appears after the descriptions.
Special rates are available for large quantities or site licenses.
Please write and ask. Or you can reach us through CompuServe [70441,
2414], GEnie (D.SEIDMAN), or the Internet (70441.2414@compuserve.com).

WPTOOLS
WPTOOLS is a collection of 20 utilities for use with WordPerfect 5.x.
Several of the programs are earlier versions of programs found in
6TOOLS, but many are not.
COMMENTS Reads one or more WP5 document files, extracts the
comments, and writes them to a WPerf file or to standard output.
DISKFONT Searches a directory for specified soft font files and,
optionally, lists descriptive information about the fonts it finds.
ENDFOOT Converts all WP5 footnotes (endnotes) to endnotes
(footnotes), changing automatic references appropriately.
FIXPRE Removes deleted (and optionally other) data packets
from the prefix of WP5 document files and removes deleted data packets
from WP5 (and some other WPCorp) setup files (e.g., WP{WP}.SET). For
document files, this will often facilitate changing the printer driver
used with the file and shrink the file. Setup files grow as you modify
your setup; FIXPRE shrinks them again. And FIXPRE sometimes helps when
WP5 just seems to be acting strangely. Optionally deletes styles,
initial codes, document summaries, and graphics.
FONTFILE Lists the file names of the soft font files specified
in a WP5 PRS file.
FONTLIST Lists the names of the fonts used in a WP5 document
and the PRS file the document calls for.
IS5XDOC Identifies WP5 document files. Useful in batch files.
LISTMACS Lists the names and descriptions of macros in WP5/DOS
WPM and WPK files (and the keys for WPK macros), optionally sorted.
Also works with PP5 and DR macro and keyboard files.
MAKETABS Converts an ASCII text file to a WP50 document,
replacing spaces by tabs. Used with columnar material.
MASTER Reads a WP5 master document and lists the unexpanded
subdocuments it calls for.
MERGESUM Creates (or adds to) a WP50 secondary merge file, each
record containing the information from a WP5 document summary (or,
optionally, the first 400 or so characters of a document if no summary
was created), along with information from the DOS file directory. In
effect, creates a database of document summaries that can be processed
using the WP5 Merge and Sort functions, or WordPerfect's Notebook
program.
PRINTIT Paginates and formats an ASCII text file for printing.
PRSFONTS Lists and optionally numbers the names of the fonts
available in a WP5 PRS file.
STYLIST Lists names and descriptions of WP5 styles, optionally
sorted.
STYLEUSE Lists the styles used in the text of a WP5 document.
Lists the styles found in the prefix but not used in the document.
Optionally deletes unused (or all) styles from the prefix. Optionally
deletes style on and off codes from the text of a document, leaving the
codes added by the style.
TARGETS Lists the automatic reference targets and references
in a WP5 document file, indicating unreferenced targets and references
to nonexistent targets.
WHATPTRS Lists the printers described in WP5 ALL files,
optionally sorted by printer name.
WP5LOOK Displays one or more WP5 document files specified on
the command line, piped to the program, or entered in response to
prompts. Particularly because files can be specified with wildcards,
WP5LOOK may be more convenient than WP5 itself for browsing through WP5
documents. Also displays non-WP5 files.
WPGSIZE Extracts and lists the dimensions of the image
coordinate space for WPG files. Useful in getting the aspect ratio
right.
WPSNOOP Determines, in greater or lesser detail, the file type
of many, but not all, files associated with recent WordPerfect
Corporation products. For WP5 document files, lists the document
summary and the PRS file. For macro files, lists the description.
Optionally reveals the structure of WP5 document file prefixes and of
set file prefixes.

WPMD -- The File Doctor for WordPerfect 5.x
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
WPMD fixes sick or broken WordPerfect Version 5.x files. There are
many different symptoms of a sick or broken file. Sometimes some or
all of the text disappears, although the file size indicates that the
text should still be there. Sometimes WPerf5 fails to recognize the
file as a WPerf5 document file. And sometimes other things go wrong.
WPMD can usually cure the file, creating a WPerf5 file requiring only
minor cleanup.

MORE TOOLS -- More Utilities for WordPerfect 5.x Users
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
MORE TOOLS is a collection of 10 shareware utility programs (plus two
additional utilities on registration) for use with WPerf5 DOS and
Windows. (A few are not useful with WPerf5.x/Win or WPerf50.)
Here are brief descriptions of the MORE TOOLS programs:
ADDPRS Allows selective updating of printer definitions in personal
setup files from the definitions in the master setup file. More
flexible than NWPSETUP.
AUTHOR Generates a secondary merge file listing a document's full
table of authorities citations with their associated short forms.
BOXFILE Lists the graphics files a WordPerfect document uses.
CONCATWP Combines a group of WP5 files into a single file, with or
without separators between files. Useful for combining text and saving
disk space.
FREEZE Converts styles, cross-references, and paragraph numbers to
ordinary text so that they will not change without explicit editing.
LFSD Replaces WP51/DOS List Files, but sorts files in reverse date
order (most recent first), date order, or by extension.
MPSET Sets environmental variables in the DOS master environment.
Aids communication between WP5 and other programs through environmental
variables.
PRIMO Converts merge codes to bolded text, for convenient printing
and debugging of merge files. Faster than the CODES macro.
SHOWCODE Converts a document to Reveal Codes-like text much more
completely and much faster than the CODES macro does.
SHOWSET Extracts and lists most of the information in SET files, so
you don't have to search through nenus to find it.
STYLIB Creates a new style library with styles selected from any or
all of your existing style libraries and documents.
WFWP Computes and lists the frequencies of words in WP5 files.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
MACROAID
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
MacroAid includes seven utility programs for use with WordPerfect
Corporation program macros. They work with macros for WordPerfect 5.0
and 5.1(DOS), PlanPerfect 5.0 and 5.1, DrawPerfect 1.0 and 1.1, ED 3.0,
LetterPerfect 1.0, and Shell 3.0 (but not with the Windows version of
WordPerfect.) These programs are primarily intended for the serious
macro writer. MacroAid also includes a shell program to facilitate
using the utility programs.
Here are brief descriptions of the seven application programs:
MacArgs: Changes assignments to macro variables with DOS commands.
The DOS command
MacArgs MyMacro.wpm -0Newstring -1AnotherString
changes
{ASSIGN}0~OldString~{ASSIGN}1~stuff~
to
{ASSIGN}0~NewString~{ASSIGN}1~AnotherString~
in MyMacro. Example uses: (1) write self-modifying macros that store
new information for later use, as for macros to number invoices
consecutively; (2) customize complex macros for different users.
MacAscii: Converts macros to ASCII text files or WordPerfect documents
so that they can be edited in WordPerfect or an ASCII text editor.
MacAscii also converts the ASCII text file or WordPerfect document back
to a macro. Allows editing of macros too big for the built-in macro
editor; editing of SH macros without WPCorp's ED editor; easy printing
of macros; use of powerful text processing and editing tools readily
available for ASCII text files.
MacCalls: Lists the files required by {CHAIN}, {NEST}, and {SHELL
MACRO} commands in a macro and the files required by these files.
MacCrush: Compresses macros by eliminating comments and the tabs and
spaces used only for formatting; replaces variable names and labels
with two-character names and labels. Makes your macros load and
execute faster.
MacChang: Changes the product type and version numbers stored within
macros. Changing your carefully developed WordPerfect macros to
PlanPerfect macros, for example, sometimes results in a working
PlanPerfect macro and should always at least make the conversion
process easier.
MacFind: Searches for text strings, macro commands, and key commands
in macros specified with wildcard file specifications.
MacRef: Provides a cross-reference listing of a macro -- a file with a
line-numbered version of the text of the macro and a listing of each
macro command, key command, variable name, shell variable name, label,
and called file, with the line numbers on which each appears. An
essential tool for the development and debugging of complex macros.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
GV2WP
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
GV2WP converts GrandView Version 1 files to WordPerfect files in a
single step (GV2WP calls GV2TXT, a program by the author of GrandView,
included with GV2WP). GV heading labels are converted to WordPerfect
automatic paragraph number. Underlining, bolding, and other font
attributes, and font size changes are preserved. Category information
is optionally converted. Special codes allow drafting of footnotes in
GrandView for conversion to WordPerfect. Numerous formatting options.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
PCOWP
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
PCOWP converts structured files produced by PC-Outline and other
outlining programs to WordPerfect files. Heading labels are converted
to WordPerfect automatic paragraph numbers. With minor preprocessing
by one PCOWP option, PC-Outline underlining is converted. Special
codes can be used in your outlining program to allow conversion of
other attributes, footnotes, and other features. Numerous formatting
options.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Software by Seidman also publishes several non-shareware programs for
use with WordPerfect 5.x. If you have any interest in these programs,
please let us know. These programs include the following two:
REMAP
REMAP translates any of the characters in the WordPerfect character
sets to any other character in the WordPerfect character sets. The
user supplies an ascii text file, each line of which specifies, by
character set and character position, a character to be translated and
the character to which it is to be translated. Thus a single pass
through the document can handle as many replacements (translations) as
desired.
COUNTEM
COUNTEM counts the words in a WordPerfect file. Why use it instead of
the word counting function built into WordPerfect? First, COUNTEM is
faster on a file by file basis, and, if you have multiple files to
process, is still faster overall, because it can handle wildcard input
file specifications. Second, COUNTEM and WordPerfect have somewhat
different ideas of what constitutes a word. The most important
difference is that COUNTEM will treat as a word a string of WordPerfect
characters that all display on screen as little boxes instead of proper
characters. Thus even if you are using WordPerfect's English language
module, you can count words written entirely in alphabets that do not
display on screen. There are other differences in the way the two
programs define words, but COUNTEM's definitions can easily be modified
to meet your needs. In other words, we are prepared to customize the
definition of a word in COUNTEM.
