I take no responsibility for any damage which the program may do to your computer, I have had it running on a A-500 Plus with a Action Replay, and two meg.
The reason I wrote the program is that, when I was doing my college work, if there was a word that I could not spell. I could type it into a file which I had loaded into the program, and the program would sort it out in alphabet order for me, and it could print the words out for me. So when it came to my exams all I had to look at the printed paper for the word that I could not spell, instead of using a dictionary.
If you would like to send me a donating for writing the program
send it to the above address, all letter will be answer.
If you type in two words the same, one of the words will be cancelled.
The program is fully multi tasking, do go to and from workbench just hold down the left Amiga key and press the letter A.
To get the program running just double click on the Sort Icon, and the program will start to load into to computer, and you will see a opening screen on your monitor. All you have to do now is click the mouse button and you will then see the main menu.
The first thing you must do is open a file, just click the left button on the mouse with the pointer over 'Open a New File'. You will now be present with a file selected, just enter a name go to
'OK' with the mouse pointer and double click. And a New File will be created for you. If you open a file which one that is already there the old file will be erase.
The next step is to add words to the file that you have just created, just click the mouse pointed over 'Add Words to a File',
put the mouse pointed over the file that you have just created, and click OK. The date will start to load into the computer. If you look at the screen it will tell you how many Words or Records that have been loaded at this point it will say 'Number of Records 0'.
It any key to carry on, all you have to do now is enter words, after every word you enter press the return key, and you will see the free memory go down, to stop adding words just press the return key with no word type in. The program will sort the data out and then save the new data. A backup of the old data will be save with a file extension call 'FILEBU'.
You will now be able to print a file and see a file on the screen, to do this just click on one of the two, and you will see the file select do as above, if you are printing to the screen and the program stop display data, just press any mouse button and you will see more data display.
DO NOT TRY TO PRINT DATA ON A PRINTER, IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ONE, THE PROGRAM WILL JUST WAIT AND WAIT.
If you find that you have just miss spell a word go to 'Delete a Word from a file' click mouse, and enter the name of the file then type in the word that is to be delete, the program will delete it if it finds it.
I do help that you find this program useful, and if you have any ideals on how to make the program better, please contact me at the above address, all letter will be answer.
