#### BINHEX a2d.hqx ****
From "nicks@netcom.com (Nick Schneir)" Thu Mar 10 18:08:22 1994
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 1994 18:09:08 -0800
From: nicks@netcom.com (Nick Schneir)
Subject: A2D (submission)
A2D is a little drag-n-drop application that converts UNIX carriage
returns to Macintosh (ASCII) carriage returns. It is freeware.
System 7 is required.
#### BINHEX alpha-581.hqx ****
From: pete@cs.rice.edu (Pete Keleher)
Subject: Alpha 5.81 Text Editor
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 94 11:35:50 CDT
This is version 5.81 of the text editor Alpha.
For those who are not familiar with Alpha, it is a completely programmable
and extendable text editor that has very extensive support for programming
in C and writing TeX or LaTeX documents.
5.81 automatically colorizes C, C++, Tcl, and TeX keywords and comments,
and can be configured to automatically colorize any other type of file as
well.
Other changes in 5.81 over the last public release, 5.77, include a much
improved external THINK editor support, rudimentary support for CodeWarrier
(their interface leaves much to be desired at this point), and an interface
to Jens Alfke's AEBuild library, which lets you create and send just about
any apple event you want from the macro language. Code currently exists to
interact with the THINK compilers, CodeWarrier, ToolServer, Textures,
OzTeX, THINK Reference, etc.
#### BINHEX ars-magna-ii-111.hqx ****
From: mxmora@unix.sri.com (Matthew Xavier Mora)
Subject: Ars Magna II 1.1.1 Fat version
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 1994 13:37:35 -0700
--========================_13546837==_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Here is an update of ArsMagna II 1.1.1. Metrowerks released a new version of
their ANSI lib with a much faster SIOUX implementation. This is just a
recompilation using the new Libs.
Enclosed is a Fat version of Ars Magna II. I ported it to Metrowerks CodeWarrior
and resedited them together. Source and project file are included.
For those that don't know, Ars Magna is an anagram generating program
by Mike Morton. I've been updating it and releasing new versions
as I see fit. Someday it might have a real mac interface.

#### BINHEX ascii-from-mac-progs.hqx ****
From: rosenberg@po.MIT.EDU
Subject: ASCII images of formatted pages (C)
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 93 18:36:51 EST
A thread dealing with producing a formatted TEXT file from
(arbitrary) Macintosh programs appeared in some recent issues of
Info-Mac Digest. The messages making up this thread had the titles:
"ASCII images of formatted pages",
"Document formatting query",
"Problems Producing RFCs",
"Problems producing RFDs (c)",
"Printing to ASCII files"
"RFC Text formatting", and
"WANT Word output to Internet ASCII".
The attached binhexed self-expanding archive contains:
1. "RFC Format dialog" which is a chronology of all the messages
(that I've seen) from the thread (including both those posted to
Info-Mac Digest and those sent directly to me), and my comments
and suggestions based on that discussion. Basically, I recommend
the creation of a new Print2Pict extension (which I call the
"ASCII Page Image" extension) and I propose some specifications
for its operation.
2. a copy of the text version of RFC 1111 as FTPed from NIC.DDN.MIL.
3. a copy of RFC 1111 as edited (by me) to make it a Microsoft Word
document.

Subject: Autoflow 1.0
Date: 19 Jan 94 02:25:10 EST
'Autoflow 1.0' is a HyperCard stack that allows you to create your own
electronic books by taking text files and 'flowing' them into HyperCard
cards, building an automatic table of contents, etc. The stack is its own
user manual; just run it and take a look! It works with HyperCard 2.1 and
2.2. as well as the HyperCard Player. This is free software, please pass it
on!
ARCHIVISTS: Please note that this is a *tool* with which one creates books,
rather than a book itself. Please file it accordingly.
There are a number of books that have been published by myself and others
using these tools available via anonymous FTP from:
ftp.dartmouth.edu
in the directory
/pub/Hyperbooks
If you would like to chat about Autoflow, need instructions for how to access
our books via electronic mail or want to be placed on a list to receive new
books automatically as they are published, please let me know.
Enjoy!

#### BINHEX bbedit-256-updt.hqx ****
From: bbedit@world.std.com (Bare Bones Software)
Subject: BBEdit 2.5.6 Updater
Date: Sun, 22 May 1994 22:54:08 -0400 (EDT)
The enclosed BinHex file contains a patcher and attendant files to
update version 2.5 through 2.5.5 of BBEdit to the current maintenance
release (version 2.5.6).
The new version fixes a couple of nasty bugs and a performance problem
that crept into the 2.5.5 release build, so all users of BBEdit 2.5
are encouraged to apply this patch. In addition, updated extensions
and ToolServer support scripts are included, as well as the complete
text of the press release which announces the planned release of
BBEdit 3.0.
The patcher cannot be used to update a demo, freeware, or beta version
of BBEdit. For details on obtaining a copy of BBEdit 2.5, send mail to
bbedit@world.std.com. (Now is a good time to get BBEdit 2.5; orders
filled between now and when BBEdit 3.0 ships will include a coupon for
a free upgrade to version 3.0.)
(Archive maintainers: This package supersedes any previously extant
BBEdit 2.5 patchers, but does -not- replace any demo or freeware
versions of BBEdit. You should make sure that you have the latest demo
and freeware packages; if in doubt, send mail to
bbedit@world.std.com.)

#### BINHEX bbedit-change-charset.hqx ****
From "sti@cs.hut.fi (Sami-Jaakko Tikka)" Sun Aug 22 21:58:05 1993
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 1993 01:45:18 +0200
From: sti@cs.hut.fi (Sami-Jaakko Tikka)
Subject: Change Charset, a BBEdit external
Hello!
This is my first posting of Macintosh software. I hope everything that is
required is here...
Change Charset is an BBEdit external which allows one to convert characters
from/to the Macintosh charset to/from ISO-Latin-1 and to/from 7-bit
Scandinavian (which is still largely used in Scandinavian unix machines!).
This probably makes Change Charset interesting for Europeans only. Still,
it never hurts to remind the English-speaking ASCII-world that there are
languages which DO need more than 7-bit characters ;-)
The conversion can be done in place, to a new window or the converted text
can be copied to the clipboard. If there's a selection, Change Charset
will act on the selection, otherwise it will process the whole window.
This program can be freely copied for non-commercial purposes.
I can be reached by email at Sami.Tikka@hut.fi

The attached BinHex file contains a StuffIt Deluxe archive of the
latest maintenance version of BBEdit Lite, the popular freeware text
editor, and "little brother" to the best-of-class BBEdit 2.5.
This version of BBEdit Lite includes a few minor bug fixes and

Subject: MacISO 1.0b2; a BBEdit extension
Date: Mon, 13 Jun 1994 18:37:00 +0100
--========================_5742484==_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
This BBEdit extension translates characters from/to the Macintosh charset
to/from ISO-Latin-1. It has been inspired by Sami-Jaakko Tikka's "Change
Charset", but uses J.P. Kuypers' famous translation tables.
The usage is similar to that of Sami-Jaakko's program:
The conversion can be done in place, to a new window or
the converted text can be copied to the clipboard.
If there's a selection, MacISO will act on the selection,
otherwise it will process the whole window.
This extension is Freeware.
Fixed bug: Version 1.0b1 didn't work with selections.

Subject: Submittion of NextPrevSection.sit.hqx
Date: Fri, 22 Apr 1994 22:07:42 -0500
This package is for:
- people who cannot afford to pay the shareware fee, and
- people who use BBEdit to edit LaTeX files, or
- people who use Alpha to edit LaTeX files but want to switch to use BBEdit,
This package contains two BBEdit extensions: NextSection and PrevSection.
- NextSection : go to the next section (or subsection, or subsubsection) of
a LaTeX document and highlight the section heading.
- PrevSection : go to the previous section (or subsection, or subsubsection) of
a LaTeX document and highlight the section heading.
Installation:
- Put these two extensions in the BBEdit extension folder.
- define a key for each extension (this is optional but this makes life much easier).
suggested keys: cmmd-z for NextSection, option-cmmd-z for PrevSection.
This is a postcard-ware. If you use it, please send me a postcard or an email.
The more postcards/emails I get, the more excuses for me to do more programming.
Feel free to send me any question/comment/suggestion.
The source code is also available for US$5.

--========================_18116012==_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Pairs 1.0.sit contains both a BBEdit extension and an MPW tool that will be
useful to C programmers. The extension checks the current editable BBEdit
window (assumed to contain C source code) for mismatched parentheses,
square brackets, curly brackets, /* */ comments, and single or double
quotes. The extension is smart enough to recoginize and deal with escaped
quotes, braces within comments or quotes, etc. Full source code (as a
Metrowerks CodeWarrior project) is included. The MPW tool provides the same
functions for MPW shell text windows, and full MPW C source is also
included. The BBEdit extension requires BBEdit version 2.2 or later; both
require System 7.0 or later.

Sort Lines (version 1.0, (c)1993, Carl B. Burch)
This BBEdit extension adds to BBEdit the ability to sort lines, much
like the Unix utility "sort", with some options from "sort":
* Ignoring each line's first n characters,
* Sorting in reverse,
* Removing duplicate lines,
* Ignoring the lines' leading white space, and
* Folding uppercase to lowercase.

From: mxmora@unix.sri.com (Matthew Xavier Mora)
Subject: BBEdit Extensions (Insert Column & Spaces to Tabs)
This is an update to the two extensions that I posted earlier.
(a bug in Spaces to tabs)
Please replace the ones in the archives with this file. I'm including sources
for the two extensions also.
In keeping with the other extensions, these are freeware so enjoy.
----------------------------------------------------------
Here are two extensions for BBEdit that I needed for processing some
mainframe data for importing into a database.
"Insert Column" puts a tab at the current insertion point in every line of the
file.
"Spaces to tabs" replaces all spaces with a tab character.
I don't know where to send the source to, so I just upload these as is.
After being spoiled by using McSink, I won't be truly happy with bbedit
until it contains all the features of Mcsink. :-)
Two down, two dozen more to go...

Revisions 1.2.1:
* Change all NewHandle() calls to use BBEdit's callback-Allocate() calls.
* Free memory allocated when error occures when unable to allocating
speech channel.
* #ifdef StackDebug code to check stack space problem (OS Error 28).
>I can't get your Speaking BBEdit to work with BBEdit Lite 2.3.1.
I have fix the problems with error code -244 - voice not available
(I now use the 1st voice if female voice is not available).
error code -240 is just that Speech manager is not installed or you have
not restarted since you installed it.
error code -241 is synth can't open up for some reason - memory?
NOTE: I have been unable to fix the following problems:
1) Due to some unknow reason the sound manger requires more stack space
than is available with BBEdit This causes system crashes with error ID 28 -
stack has entered the application heap.
Results of my debugging last night:
- initial stack space is around 23,000 bytes when the module is first called,
- as text to sound is initially being processed the stack space goes down
to less then 4000 bytes,
(monitored via Speech Manager's Word callback routine).
- once the sound is playing the stack space goes back up to 23,000 bytes,
if it gets that far.
(My guess is Async interrupt routine used by speech manager is using
lot's of stack space).
As a result, I don't know if I will be able to fix it, does anyone know how
to fix it?
2) The callback routine that allows me to hilight the word currently being
spoken does not update the screen if it has to scroll the text into the
window. The only way I was able to force an update is to do a cut/paste
operation to the file!
I have try it with BBEdit V2.2.1 and BBEdit Lite V2.3.1 same bugs on LC
III's (System 7.1, 12M RAM) and Macintosh IIci (System 7.0.1, 8M ram).
The Centris 650 (System 7.1 + AppleScript, 24M RAM) - Stack bug does not
show up on the Centris 650 but the usage is still high and dangerlessly
low.
I will try to find time to create a TeachText type XTND capable program for
speaking word processing files in the next few weeks. If you know how to
fix the program, let me know, I have included the source code with some
#ifdef around stack debugging code. Enclosed is v1.21.
>How do you install it?
You place the file "Speaking" into the BBEDit extension folder and restart
BBEdit, the modules names will appear under the "Extensions" menu in
BBEdit.
> Do you paste the resources into the application with ResEdit?
no... no resEdit is not needed.

Subject: New BBEdit Extensions for Speech Manager
Two new BBEdit Extensions for speaking the selected text using Apple new
Speach Manager.
I was thing about writting a XTND capable speaking program, to allow
speaking of any word processing file, but no need since BBEdit is such a
program.
Hence, Speak Sentences and Speaking my first BBEdit module.
1) Speak Sentences
Simple extension that use Apple's new speach manager to 'Talk' the
selected text.
2) Speaking
An extensiont that use Apple's new speach manager to 'Talk' the
selected text.
The use is presented with a dialog box with some limited control over how
text is spoken.
* You can ask it to spell the text or speak the text.
* You can use the Talk, Stop, Pause, and Continue buttons to control and
replay the text.
* The exit button is used to return to BBEdit.
As time permits I will add the 'standard missing features' selecting voice,
rate and pitch.

What is BeachText?
++++++++++++++++++
BeachText is a DA TextEditor which allows to create and edit the
TeachText file with picture easily. It also allows egrep etc.
It can also deal with Japanese, and create a text file longer
than 32k.
Documentation is in Japanese only, but for most part, the operation
of the BeachText should be quite straight forward. At least,
I have never read them but I had no trouble^_^
This is freeware and is free to redistribute as long as you
keep all the file together and intact, and you don't make
any profit out of it.

Subject: Belgian PostCards 2.4.hqx part 1
Belgian Postcards is a TeachText replacement application which features
full font & style support, pictures, icons, sounds and lots more. Belgian
Postcards can also be used to create Teachtext files with pictures in an
easy way (cfr. TeachTextMaker in the past).
Belgian PostCards is now in version 2.4 and is available in its complete
form in this package. This is not a demo, but the full application(s).
Reviewed in 1992 MacUser ("Does all the things TeachText can't...")
Reviewed (Version 2.1.1) in December 1993 MacUser ("The delightfully named
Belgian PostCards...") as one of the three best low cost alternatives for
electronic publishing. Unlike DocMaker, Belgian PostCards is designed for
short (no more than 11 pages or so per document) notes to your friends,
customers or colleagues. Belgian PostCards allows you to use color text,
with unlimited styling and sizes. With PostCards you can also easily add
color or b/w pictures to your cards and even record or import an unlimited
number of sounds to attach to your documents. Add one of 50 built-in custom
icons (designed by icon hall of famer Tom Poston) to "stamp" your document!
PostCards is ideal for online correspondence and really makes a unique way
to send holiday and greetings notes to your friends! When you register
PostCards you are entitled to distribute the PostCards Viewer to
anyone-never worry again about compatability! You will also receive two
floppies chock full of sound resources, notes, instructions for how to use
our unique custom text feature, as well as how to create custom viewers for
your work group, school, LAN, BBS, or shareware business- all without
programming.
PostCards is the ideal tool for adding a little flair to your online
messaging! This is the first time we have ever uploaded a full version of
PostCards, so please honor the shareware agreement.

Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1993 14:32:45 -0500
Bibliography Manager II is a HyperCard application that was created to
help researchers and authors keep track of and store information about
bibliographic references, and to produce Bibliography or Literature Cited
sections for papers. This version (2.0) requires HyperCard v. 2.1 to run,
and is shareware.
The reference card for each bibliographic entry has separate fields
for Author, Date, Title, Source, Volume, Pages, Keywords, and Notes, along
with places to indicate whether you have a copy of the item and how it is
filed. You can do "quick searches" for text in individual fields, or use
HyperCard's card marking abilities to identify and work with only a subset
of the entries in the stack. You can also create and save custom text
import and export formats, so that you can import references from text
files of varying formats, and can create custom bibliography lists to match
the format required by your professor or publisher. The program can also
store a list of abbreviations for journal names that is cross-referenced to
the names on the reference cards, allowing you to use either full names or
abbreviations when you create bibliography lists. You can create as many
different bibliography stacks as you wish, and exchange bibliographic
entries, import and export formats, and journal abbreviation lists among
them. There is also an on-line help facility.
Since I designed this stack for myself and my colleagues in science,
and am not familiar with all the protocols for literature cataloging and
referencing in other areas of study, it may not suit everyone's purpose,
but I hope that it can be a useful tool for those who want to keep track of
literature references and who need to create reference lists when they
write papers.

"ButtonPad is an improved version of the NotePad desk accessory that comes
with the Macintosh. ButtonPad lets you categorize your notes into up to
eight separate "Quick Access" pads that can be quickly accessed via push
buttons. Each pad can be up to 32K in size. This makes ButtonPad ideal
for storage of text that is frequently accessed such as telephone numbers,
customer information, etc. The quick access push buttons augment the
normal open, select, close dialog procedures. You may assign your own
labels to each push button and the name of the pad file to be retrieved.
The pads are automatically saved if modified. In addition to the quick
access pads, you may also access any text file via the normal open command.
There is a find command to access specific information, a variable line
sort command, and tools for cleaning up text files such as replacing spaces
with tabs. ButtonPad will also dial the phone via tones or modem for phone
numbers found in the current line. You can print out your pads, adjusted
to fit pocket organizers. ButtonPad is a cross between standard notepad,
minieditor, and telephone dialer/index card type applications."

Subject: Nisus PostScript Macros 1.2
Dale's PostScript Macros for Nisus version 1.2
(replaces ver. 1.1.1)
Here is version 1.2 of my PostScript Macros for Nisus. The
macros implement postscript "backdrops" consisting of 72 or 100-point
type printed diagonally in light grey over the document. The macros
can be used to print backdrop text on just the first page or on
mulitple pages in a document. More than one backdrop can
be used in the same document. Macros for printing "PRELIMINARY",
"CONIFIDENTIAL", "REVISED" (with date & time), or any dialog-input
string are provided, along with a macro to remove all PostScript
code from a document.
There is also a new PS macro designed to create borders for slides
or overheads produced in Nisus. The borders contain the presentation
title, author's name, and date/company.
I also included the "raw" PostScript code for those that do not own
Nisus but still wish to insert backdrops or overhead frames. Most word
processors can use the PostScript Escape font to insert the PS code.
Archive contains the required PostScript Escape font.
Freeware/E-mail-ware
Version history:
1.2: Rewrote all the backdrop macros to make them easier to localize for
paper other than US letter. It is also easier to change fonts etc.
without having to rework the macro (i.e. things should still be
centered if you change point sizes or font types).
Added a new macro (RRect frame) that places a rounded rectangle border
complete with the presentation title, author's name, and date/company.
This macro is designed to be used in landscape mode to create slides or
overheads for presentations.
Included text versions of the PS code for PS hackers or those that do
not own Nisus.
1.1.1: Put terse option back onto Remove psBackdrops (accidently removed in
version 1.1) so macro doesn't abort. Sorry for the slip-up.
1.1: Made it easier to modify the text printed by the macros and improved
the centering of dialog-entered text.
1.0: Initial release
COMMING SOON:
I am still working on a way to get rid of the wasted "white space"
that the invisible PS code leaves in Nisus.

From: andrewt@cs.wisc.edu (Andrewt Thomas-Cramer)
Subject: dataman.2.0.2.hqx, a wonderful utility
Many times you can use the find-and-replace function of your software
to make your changes. But sometimes your changes -- even though similar --
cannot be expressed as "find this, replace that." Sometimes what you replace
depends on what you find. Sometimes you want to do other things than
replace, other things than find. And sometimes you have to make the same
changes to many documents.
You can give DataMan instructions in any order. The instructions are
familiar dialog-like objects that scroll in a window; they can be saved
between sessions so that you never have to enter them again. And you can
create menu items for these scripts of instructions, with keyboard shortcuts.
Need to change all-uppercase to uppercase-and-lowercase often? Press
command-0 for Smart Lowercase, one of several dozen pre-written scripts
accompanying the application.
One strength of DataMan is symbolization. You can describe text using
symbols, just like you can use the symbol ^p for carriage return in other
software. Only DataMan understands many, many more symbols -- both specific
like ^p, and wild-cards like ^aPrice, which matches any price. You can
redefine wild-cards and create new ones. With symbols you could, for example,
find any date and replace it with the date found plus one day. Since so many
options are available, DataMan provides you with a symbol-editing dialog.
An example in which DataMan saved me hours: I Was working on a 40-page
cross-index to a large catalog. Each page had some 80 page numbers listed
on it, along with other numbers. The client decided to increase each page
number by one. Changing 2400 page numbers by hand would have taken hours to
enter and proof. DataMan did it in minutes -- and without mistakes.
DataMan is fast, easy and powerful. This introduction doesn't begin
to cover all DataMan's powers. Enjoy.

Have you ever wanted to send a letter to someone, on a disk, but you
werenUt sure what word processor they had? Have you wanted to put your own
documentation on a disk for others to read and print without worrying about
word processor compatibility? Well, now you have it: DOCMaker, a winner
of The 1992 & 1993 MacUser( Shareware Awards!
DOCMaker is an application for the Macintosh* which creates stand-alone,
self-running document files. It features TscrollableU and Tre-sizableU
windows, graphics, varied text styles and fonts, and full printing
capability. The stand-alone files are self-executing applications which
you may distribute to others to read and print. No other application is
required! This gives you the ability to distribute documents and
information widely with no knowledge of the end-usersU Mac configuration or
software.
With DOCMaker you may create up to 60 separate, 32K chapters within each
document. Every chapter may contain up to 60 graphics. You may name every
chapter uniquely; it will appear in the Contents menu. You may add a table
of contents and a find feature for the readers to quickly jump to selected
sections. Each chapter may print separately. DOCMaker itself, will open
any TEXT file or existing DOCMaker document. DOCMaker will also open and
convert AppleUs TeachText files for saving as stand-alone documents. RHot
PicturesS act like buttons within the documents for accomplishing such
things as playing sounds, showing QuickTime* movies, and jumping to other
applications.
Files may be added to a document by using the Append File feature so that
your existing documentation may be merged into a single stand-alone
document. DOCMaker uses the Claris* XTND importing standard to import
styled text from applications such as MicroSoft Word* and MacWrite*.
DOCMaker also takes full advantage of text styles including fonts, faces
(bold, italics, underline, shadow and outline) and specified colors for
those so equipped. You may define text styles by name and use them when
you need. And when youUre done, you may add a customized RAbout My
ProductIS menu and dialog to the final stand-alone document.
DOCMaker is a great way to distribute information on disks, networks and
bulletin board services.
Now The BusinessI
If you find that you may use DOCMaker, please take the time to send in the
shareware fee. If you really look at the public domain and shareware
products available for the Macintosh*, youUll see a tremendous wealth of
interesting, fun, enlightening and useful packages. Those packages would
not be there if it werenUt for the inquisitive and hard-working,
independent ThackersU among us who just canUt see why a computer has to be
difficult, or expensive, to be good.
Think how dull it would be without those DAs and small programs that fill
some of the gaps among the $195-a-shot applications. All IUm asking is
TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS to cover the price of registration, postage, mailer and
disk. Included on the disk is an extensive userUs manual file. The manual
explains, in detail, every feature of DOCMaker, which includes how to
customize the About Dialog. What more could you ask?
Upgrades are free to registered users. If you are a registered user of

of a similar format.
In order to use the csmp index you will need Easy View 2.22. This is
archived as /info-mac/app/easy-view-22.hqx. When you have installed
Easy View 2.22, put the "c.s.m.p." folder containing the csmp index in
the "Sample Formats" folder in your "Easy View Folder". Then put a
copy of the index into a folder with a collection csmp digests. Open
this index and the digests will be indexed and displayed for _easy
viewing_. Add new digests to the folder as they become available.

EBook is my answer to the growing collection of electronic text "front
ends" available for fee or free. Many of these front ends are based on
Hypercard, as is EBook. Where EBook differs, however, is in basic
philosophy. My goal was to create a simple, self-configuring stack that
would turn a plain text file into the electronic equivalent of a paperback
book: no frills, compact, and easy to read. You will not find elegant page
layout, provision for margin notes, or other special features. You will
find:
o Bookmarks you can set on each page.
o Simple text search.
o "Open where I quit!" A possibly unique feature that remembers the
page you were on when you quit and returns to that page when you next
startup.
For those of you travelling with PowerBooks or simply looking for a way to
read the growing number of fine works becoming available as plain text
files, I hope EBook provides a simple way to enjoy yourself.
EBook is implemented using Hypercard 2.1
EBook is freeware. However, EBook is NOT released into the public domain.
I reserve all rights to the layout and script features. No third party may
use EBook in whole or in part to produce a library of works for sale at any
price except minimal cost to defray the expense of materials and handling.
This explicitly excludes companies such as EduCorp that sell collections of
free and shareware for a fee. I do authorize the release of EBook as part
of the sumex CDROM collection.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Edit II is intended as a replacement for the Consulair Edit text editor but
which alllows the use of the cursor keys on the Mac keyboard for
navigation. If the extended keyboard is used, then the num lock LED will
indicate whether the cursor pad or the numeric pad mode is on. The home,
end, page up, page down keys will also work, as will the delete right key.
One level of undo is supported. You can launch Edit II by double clicking
old Edit files (since Edit II uses the same creator signature as Edit, that
is, EDIT). Stationery documents are supported under System 7.
Thanks for all the support from registered users. Your feedback has been
incorporated into this version.
2.1.5 (02/24/94) Bug fixes and a few minor new features
~~~~~
** New features **
* cmd-option-W triggers 'Close All'.
* cmd-option-S triggers 'Save All'.
* Disallow opening of filenames beginning with a period (even TeachText
barfs on such filenames, and DTS says it's BAD!).
* Documentation has been updated to reflect the above (and converted to
MS Word 4.0 format - should be readable by *all* word processors!).
** Bugs fixed **
* With the assistance of Mouse Systems Inc, I've fixed a long standing
problem of the repeating a's across the window when you ran Edit II on
a system that used the A3 mouse and an extended keyboard. It's *not*
due to an extension conflict - just an ADB conflict. Thanks to all who
reported the errors over the years and stuck it out! (thanx Chris)
* GREP initialization now checked for errors.
* Read-only files are saved under a new name.
* Check for locked volume for so we can consider all files as read-only.
* Turn on the watch cursor while searching (dumb of me to forget!)
* Remember to close old file when doing 'Save As' (thanx Robby)
* Added AOL text file type

Date: Sat, 25 Dec 1993 19:07:17 -0500 (EST)
There have been some debate on what is the best solution
for viewing a very large file for a while. As far as I
remember, the result was something like "there isn't really."
Well, attached application may be the answer for this problem.
Attached is a stuffited binhexed file of Edit7, a freeware
text editor written by Mr.H.Iimori.
Edit7 is a text editor which can deal with:
1) an extremely big text file (upto about actual memory + 60MB
subject to the availability of the hard disk space)
2) take advantage of script manager (no support for right
to left writing language yet.)
3) can show line number
4) regular expression search and replace
5) wrap line
6) window split (can do many)
7) multiple view of a file
8) multiple windows
9) drag&drop editing of text bloc
10) multiple undo
and more and more....
This editor is still under development, so some features
are not yet implemented (e.g. print preference dialog has
no effect.)
Documentation is in Japanese, but I presume most of the
features can be figured out by the user without much
problems. I did not add any English explanation in compliance
with the 4) bellow.

From: dwv@magic.ucsb.edu (David Valentine)
Subject: [*] Endnote Plus, and Endlink Demo's
This is the latest Demo of Niles and Assoc Endnote+ 1.3
Excerpt From the Manual:
Introducing EndNote Plus
Welcome to EndNote Plus, an Enhanced Reference Database and Bibliography
Maker. As the subtitle suggests, EndNote Plus is a program with a dual
purpose.
First, EndNote Plus is a database manager-specialized in storing, managing,
and searching for bibliographic references in your private reference
library.
Second, EndNote Plus is a bibliography maker-it builds lists of cited works
automatically, and can format references to paste into footnotes as well.
EndNote scans your word processor paper for in-text citations. It then
compiles a bibliography using the information in your database. Finally, it
will produce a copy of your paper, reformatting the in-text citations and
placing the bibliography at the end. You select the style to use and
EndNote does the rest! EndNote can reformat documents created by Microsoft
Word 3, 4, and 5, WordPerfect 1.0 - 2.1, MacWrite 5.0, MacWrite II,
WriteNow 1.0-3.0, Nisus 3 and FrameMaker 3. It can also reformat documents
in RTF (Rich Text Format), and plain text documents.
EndLink is the online database import facility for EndNote. It is an add-on
module to EndNote which enables you to import journal references from
online databases into your EndNote libraries. EndLink is not a program
itself, rather it is a resource file which, when present in the same folder
as the EndNote program, endows EndNote with a new import capability.
To use EndLink, you log on to your database service, and capture the
results of your search as they are listed to the screen. Then you start
EndNote, Import the resulting text file using EndLink, and the references
are imported directly into an EndNote library. Further instructions on
begin on page 28.

Subject: Excalibur 1.5 (Spelling Checker)
Date: Wed, 26 Jan 94 12:08:36 EST
[This replaces version 1.4.1]
This is release 1.5 of Excalibur. 1/14/94
Excalibur is a Macintosh spelling checker for LaTeX documents. You can
optionally turn off LaTeX parsing, so Excalibur is a good plain text
spelling checker too.
Features include:
- Excalibur will offer suggestions for how to correct a word.
- Excalibur can spell check the clipboard. This makes it a good
spelling checker for any text based application such as Alpha, BBEdit,
or Eudora.
- You can teach it about new LaTeX commands and environments that
you define.
- Optionally spell checks text in the typewriter (\tt) font.
- You can create your own dictionaries.
- Works with Textures and OzTeX documents. It should work on any TEXT file.
- You will need System 6.0.4 or higher to run Excalibur.
- If you are running System 7 or greater, there is balloon help.
- Excalibur is free.
- British, Dutch, French, Germain, and Italian dictionaries are also
available.
Version 1.5 changes:
- Added options that let the user choose how Excalibur should behave
when you launch it. You may choose to present an "open file" dialog,
open the clipboard if it has text, or do nothing. When the clipboard
option is checked, Excalibur will also open the clipboard when it
receives a resume event (if it contains text).
- Adjusted a few of the dialogs so that they all appear and behave
consistently. Hitting Return or Enter is the same as clicking the
default button. Command period is the same as cancel.
- Made some changes so that Excalibur's interactions with Alpha are
smoother.
- Fixed the Edit Commands dialog so that it is a bit more intuitive.
- Fixed the Edit Environments dialog so that you no longer enter the
number of arguments. Excalibur never used these values anyway.
- You can now drag Excalibur's windows to another monitor.
- Fixed a few minor bugs.

and an alphabetically sorted index of all of the note pages is provided so
you can find the page you are looking for quickly.
FlashWrite ][ also has a handy Find facility that will find the text your
are looking for no matter what page it is on. FlashWrite ][ supports Undo,
Cut, Copy, and Paste, and also has many other handy functions like Importing
and Exporting of text, a word count facility, and a very easy to use
interface.
And when you want to take your notes with you, FlashWrite ]['s complete
printing will allow you to do just that.
FlashWrite ][ Opener, a companion to FlashWrite ][, is a little INIT that
will open FlashWrite ][ up at any time when you hit a user-definable "hot

This file should replace HyperBibTeX095 on all archives.
HyperBibTeX (version 0.9.7, 3-May-93) is a Macintosh
HyperCard stack for managing bibliography databases
compatible with BibTeX, the bibliography system used by
the TeX typesetting language. HyperBibTeX's features
include:
* entering and editing bibliographic entries using
BibTeX's entry types (Book, Article, Proceedings, etc.),
* checking data integrity and consistency against a set
of authority lists,
* sorting cards on various fields,
* searching the database,
* marking cards individually or with the search function,
* importing entries from a BibTeX file,
* exporting cards to a BibTeX file.
HyperBibTeX requires HyperCard version 2. It should run
fine under system 6, but the Balloon Help facility
requires system 7. It also runs under HyperCard Player.
Version 0.9.7 is an upgrade that fixes bugs (including a
serious bug in version 0.9.5) and adds some new features
(such as an Index window that lists the Keys of the cards).
If you are presently using an older version of HyperBibTeX,
I strongly recommend that you upgrade to version 0.9.7.

WELCOME to a demonstration of IN CONTROL.
If you have ever used outlining software such as MORE or Acta, you will
find IN CONTROL to be familiar and powerful. And even if you're not
familiar with traditional outlining software, you'll find the concepts easy
to grasp and instantly useful.
IN CONTROL adds a whole new dimension of power beyond what is available in
simple outliners. With IN CONTROL you can add new columns of information
associated with each topic in the outline. And you can use these new
columns to arrange and quickly re-arrange your outline into different
orders. So you can see the top priority things to do for the California
project, or all the things assigned to Ellis that are due before next
Friday. With the click of a button, you can also see your to-do list
displayed in an interactive calendar view.
IN CONTROL is unlike ordinary calendar or outline programs. While calendars
can remind you of upcoming events, only IN CONTROL helps you decide WHAT TO
DO as well as when to do it.
IN CONTROL is the only To-Do List Manager that lets you organize all your
activities in an outline in a prioritized list and on your calendar. You
choose the organization that's best.
Starting to use IN CONTROL doesn't require a big investment of time or
effort. Just type in your list and IN CONTROL is ready to help you juggle
priorities, decide what to do next, and remember important dates,
assignments, and details.
You can set priorities, assign responsibilities, choose dates, and
instantly sort your list in order based on any of these values. And you can
quickly focus on just those items in the list that match any criteria you
specify. You can view your lists as outlines, calendars, or both.
____________ REQUIREMENTS
IN CONTROL requires the following equipment and software:
Macintosh Plus or greater, including any current
Macintosh model.
System Software version 6.0.5 or later, or 7.0 or later
600K bytes of memory; more for larger files
Two 800K floppy disk drives or a hard disk
System 7 Users: IN CONTROL provides Balloon Help, supports TrueType and the
required AppleEvents, and is 32-bit compatible.

The Indexer, Version 1.0, by Todd Clements (tclement@hmc.edu)
This utilities main purpose is to aid in the creation of indexes for
yearbooks. What it does is simple, it reads in a file of names, and allows
you to associate page numbers with each of these names. However, it makes
the process easier than doing it by hand (My own experience with a ~1500
name index had the time go from 9 hrs to 2 hrs.). It offers find features
that will allow you to find names (or portions of names), or find those who
are indexed to a certain page.
You can open up previously made indexes and continue with your work at any
time. The Indexer also offers Alphabetical sorting functions, and functions
to create useable index files. (As an example, I received a DOS file from
the District in All caps, with extraneous information all over the
place... The Indexer allows you to selectively remove that extraneous
information and create a useable file).
If you are involved in anything that involves association of text with page
numbers, The Indexer could be useful to you. The Indexer is Shareware $5US.
I am the author and can be reached at tclement@hmc.edu.
The Indexer may be included on CD ROMs or other such packages as long as the
fee is for cost of product, and not profit.
It should probably be stored in /util/text

InfoBrowser 2.8.1
In an attempt to make the chore of reading the Info-Mac Digest easier and less
time consuming I created this stack. The inspiration came to me after reviewing
the stack of a similar nature by Peter Jorgenson.
InfoBrowser can read in text versions of Info-Mac Digest files. After reading
them in it displays them in a fairly easy to use format that allows rapid
browsing, and the extracting of information including files to be downloaded.
I have fixed a couple of bugs from 2.8 and added some minor functionality to the
Download Card. I have made it easier to extract file info into a format that is
appropriate for e-mail retrieval of archived files.
I find this HC stack very useful and it helps speed up the process of reading
the lengthy Info-Mac Digest
This requires HC 2.0, works most efficiently on 12" or larger monitors. This is
FreeWare, but please send me an e-mail message if you like it
The stack has complete documentation including pseudo baloon help contained
within the stack.

Greetings,
Here is the latest version of my InfoMac Digest Stack. It has some small
improvements such as an arrow button that takes you to the next subject. The
import feature now has an option for closing the stack after importing a batch
of text files. This is useful if the stack is stored on a file server, and you
want it to be available after the importation is finished.
For those who may not know, InfoMac Digest stack is a hypercard front-end for
the InfoMac Digests. It takes the digests as they arrive (big text files) and
imports them into a HyperCard structure that facilitates following threads,
looking for infomation, and generally dealing with the large volume of
information contained in the digest.

Subject: [*] JOVE & MicroEmacs startup files w/ GNU-Emacs-ish bindings
Due to the overwhelming number of requests I received asking for
either or both of these files, I've decided to post them to
Info-Mac. There are two files, .joverc and emacs.rc, which I used to
make Jove 4.12 and MicroEmacs 3.x (x = 10?) running under System 6.0.7
operate as much like GNU Emacs as possible. I now use GNU Emacs under
MacMiNT under System 7.1, so I have no intention of upgrading these
startup files.
Several people pointed out that Alpha can also be made Emacs-like. I
had previously tried to do so, but gave up after a short effort. I
believe that the newer versions of Alpha do not run under System 6, so
Jove would probably be the way to go if you use System 6.
The usual caveats apply. In other words, it very well works for me,
but don't complain if you don't like it.
#### BINHEX letter-header-13.hqx ****
From: "Allan M. Bloom" <IRBLOOM@VTVM1.CC.VT.EDU>
Subject: LetterHeader 1.3
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 94 18:57:56 EST
On ZIFNet Mac today, I found LetterHeader ($20 Shareware), a neat
extension that "flashes" a letterhead or watermark on an otherwise
pristine document when printing. It uses PICT files to flash below
or above (your choice) whatever document you are printing. You may
choose one flash to print on page 1 and one to print on subsequest
pages. Neat toy.
I've been patching our letterhead into my MacWrite Pro stationery. It'd
be neat if I didn't have to store the letterhead stuff in each document.
Also, printing a watermark, like "DRAFT" in big outline text, on each
page of the printout is useful. There is a commercial product that does
that (Working Software Something? I forget), but I'm fond of shareware.
Printing to a PICT file should be readily done via Print-2-Pict. Not in
MacWrite Pro (1.5v1). Major crash. But it doesn't seem to be P2P's fault.
P2P 3.5 works fine from Edit II and from (Oh yuck!) MS Word 5.1, so I
assume the fine folk at Claris did it again. PopChar needed revised to
work with MacWrite Pro, too. Kept my wife using MacWrite II for many
months until Gunther figured out what violence Claris was doing to
Apple's standards.
If you want to get a "flash" from MacWrite Pro, choose the "file" output
option and "print" the file as EPS with normal Mac header. Then you need
to use something like PICTuresque to convert the EPSF to a PICT. I have
written the author of P2P about the problem with MWP. Maybe a revision
will be forthcoming. Meanwhile, MWP users had best also get PICTuresque
and resign themselves to a two-stage process.

shareware ($25.00 US) version can convert among 3 different Cyrillic
systems - Apple Standard Cyrillic, Russian KOI-8 Alternative Variant system
and old Casady and Green unilingual Cyrillic system. More conversion tables
are available for registered users.
Required Sys 7. Drag and drop, baloon help, very fast and small.
Tested on variety of macintoshes, from Mac 512 to Centris 610. 32 bit
clean, virtual memory compatible.
Probably should go into /info-mac/text directory.

This is McSink 7.0, the latest update to McSink, arguably the best
DA/text editor for the mac. I am posting this as two separate files;
the first is the DA, the second is a document (20k) and about a dozen
VCMD's. If you want to know what is different, get the second file
and extract the "McSink V7.0 Changes" file and read it. It is a text
file. A quick summary: word wrap is disabled :-( ; it is a lot
faster and you can now use VCMD's in McSink. if you want all the
features you have to get Vantage, the commercial big brother to McSink.

This is a Mac implementation of the text editor microEmacs.
(For people like me who has it's somewhat cryptic command
interface solidly stuck in our brain patterns.)
It's from 1989 and must have come from the Internet originally,
I found it on some Swedish local BBS.
No bugs to my knowledge (I haven't tested it too hard either). It
handles files 300-400 K without problems, though.
I still use system 6.0.5 and can't guarantee it's system 7 behaviour.
I'm using Disinfectant 3.2 for virus checking.

Misebirakasu 2.0
>>the Simple Online Knowledge Solution<<
Misebirakasu is an online documentation system, originally created to replace
DisplayDA and provide a simple means of displaying and accessing small
amounts of useful text. Misebirakasu can now perform those simple duties,
and much more. By the manipulation of resources, one may customize it to
display almost any sort of graphic- or text-based information of any size
that one needs to access quickly and easily, including pictures displayed
within text.
New for 2.0: Status bar which tells you which chapter youUre currently
viewing. Copy now copies pictures along with text. Added the ability to
have the display window vertically stretch itself to fill the screen, and
since that means that we canUt use the autocentering utilities provided by
the System, an option which centers the window on the main screen. Pictures
now copy to the clipboard along with text. TeachTextiness eliminated
entirely. Hilting problems fixed. Drastic speed increases. Find problems
fixed. Changed packaging and method of distribution. Dropped TeachText
compatibility for speed.
Misebirakasu
* can have an unlimited number of chapters. Each chapter can display up to
32K of Styled text in full living color.
* can display pictures within the text.
* allows the user to select and copy any portion of the text. Selected
pictures are also copyable.
* has a "Find" function.
* is 32-bit compatible and 68040 cache compatible, and doesnUt do nasty
things to the system, so it should theoretically work with future systems
forever.
Also
* you can define sections of text which can be accessed quickly and easily
>From the TSectionsU menu.

From: raymund ken-guan chan <rchan@triton.unm.edu>
Mishu-Wuhan Demo 2.04 is a DA and extension with a set of fonts that allow one
to paste Chinese characters as text or pictures into other applications such
as Microsoft Word, MacWrite, Hypercard, Word Perfect or any application that
accepts Apple's standard Styled Text or Pict clipboards. Chinese Word or
MacWrite documents can be imported into PageMaker and QuarkExpress. It will
work under System 6.0.7 or 7 and best of all, you do not need to have Apple's
ChineseTalk System or WorldScript installed! Printing is very slow on
postscript laserprinters, but only slightly longer on QuickDraw printers
such as the Imagewriter, LaserWriter LS and Sytlewriter. Faxing documents is
also quite fast. The method of character selection is similar to ChineseTalk
via pinyin. The only difference between this demo and the full version is
only the characters up to the pinyin "feng" are here.
The DA will not work properly unless both the fonts and extension are
installed and the System restarted. The demo guide is in Word Format.
You can open it with MacWrite, Microsoft Word or any other word processor
that can handle that format by first opening the application and selecting
Open from the file menu. Choose the Guide when the get file dialog appears.
Instructions on ordering the full version are included in the demo guide.
Mishu was given a four and a half mice rating by MacUser magazine in 1989.
Version 2.04 is fully compatible with System 7.1.
Note to Moderators: This demo should replace the earlier version 2.0 demo.

Hi,
Please find attached NoteBook Maker. The standard blurb follows:
=======================================
Notebook Maker
This application will allow you to take a standard Macintosh TEXT file of
data, and create a stand-alone 'Notebook' application which includes that
information in an easy to browse and search format. Notebook applications
are designed so that you can easily distribute list based information to
other Macintosh users. The low memory requirements mean that it is
especially useful in lab situations where you can have lists of do's and
dont's, helpful hints and so on.
Once the Notebook application has been created, you can use Notebook Maker
to add and delete topic entries, or remove and attach graphics to
individual topics.
Notebook Maker can also create 'Command Set' files for use with the
application 'Commander' (of use to 4th Dimension developers only).
Shareware: US$15 or one audio compact disk.

PlainText 1.29a fixes a bug in version 1.28 that caused crashes while
zooming windows on SEs, MacPluses, PB100s and a few other machines that
are designed to use multiple monitors.
PlainText is a free text editor that is small and fast. It's feature-set
has been limited to those features I have found useful in many years of
experience with a number of commercial and share-ware editors. Most
importantly, PlainText has automatic word wrap and no 32K limit. Other
features are bookmarks and better than standard search and replace. You
can use PlainText to insert or remove hard carriage returns, convert
between Unix, MS/DOS, and Mac end-of-line conventions, convert between
straight and curly quotes, etc. Granted, the big, full-featured editors,
like Pete Keleher's Alpha and BBEdit, by Rich Siegel, have these features,
plus many more. PlainText incorporates a subset in a small, simple, and
fast editor. PlainText even incorporates a few operating system commands
in a command-line interface.
PlainText requires System 6.0.5 or greater and is System 7 saavy.
This is version 1.2.9a. Users of version 1.2.8, or any other previous
versions should switch to this one in order to take advantage of the many
enhancements and a few bug fixes. Version 1.3 is in the works. It's major
change will be a modeless search and replace dialog.

George Wittenberg asks about an editor for handling "overlapping dialogs" in
a tabular format. Our collaborative writing environment, the PREP Editor,
handles transcription *extremely* well - to the point of being able to
include the actual voice in the document (if you have a enough RAM)! We use
PREP to transcribe our own studies, in addition to writing all our papers.
This transciption capability is ancillary to PREP's real goal, which is to
provide a writing environment to support collaborative writing. We are an
NSF sponsored project.
PREP includes XTND capabilities for import and export; text, drawing, and
sound support; and much more. Note that PREP is *NOT* a
synchronous/networked/real time environment (although that will be
changing). We think that 90% of the work happens asynchronously, anyway.

Notes on "Pyramid" by Temporal Custodian:
This program is a simple device that accepts text input from the user
and outputs a numerical value using the following process:
The text is broken into individual characters and each character is
converted into a number depending on its position in the English alphabet.
For example, if you input an "A" the program returns a value "1" as the
total. A "z" will return a 26, and so on. Capitals and lowercase letters
have the same value, and digits hold their own value, so if you enter a
"9," the program will return a "9" as its output.

The "Reeves Digest Browser" is a hypercard stack which makes it

into a contents window and each message into its own message
window. It should work on any digest but has been tested only
on the homebrew and grateful dead digests.
Messages can be shown by clicking on the contents window,
choosing "read messages", clicking "next" or "previous" message
buttons, or choosing the message number. Messages can also
be edited and/or exported to their own files. Complete help is
available for all buttons and fields by option-clicking on the

SaintEdit will read any text file and is loaded with features.

- Extensive Search and replace
- Color Day/Night Settings (change background color too!)
- FastScrolls
- Drag and Drop any TEXT file
- Sleek Interface
- Printing Support
- Multiple Monitor Support
- Auto read UNIX and DOS files without messing with converters
- Save text files for Macintosh, UNIX, DOS, TeachText, TeachText

This is a slightly improved version of the skim Unix program recently
posted by Craig Nevill-Manning <cgn@kauri.cs.waikato.ac.nz>. This version
also inserts the necessary 'cd' and 'get' commands so that you can feed
the resulting script directly into FTP.
I have sumex-aim in my .netrc file, so that all I need to do after the

This is Style 1.2.1, a simple application that lets you create
small (up to about 32,000 characters) styled text documents.
You can set font, font size, style attributes and color of
individual characters with easily accessible menus.
You can open any number of documents at the same time, the only
limit being available memory. You can create small stand-alone
documents ('AutoViewers') that may be viewed and printed without
the application itself. Last, but not least, Style fully supports
the Claris XTND architecture: you can import and export
documents in various word processor formats.
The Style 1.2.1 package includes translators for MacWrite 5.0
and MacWrite II.
Style takes advantage of most System 7 features and user
interface improvements (including Balloon Help, stationery pads,
movable modal dialogs, temporary memory, apple events, etc.)
but can work with any system starting from 6.0.4.
System 7.0 or newer (7.1 recommended) is required to handle
non-Roman script systems properly.
Main changes from version 1.2:
* Better Script Manager support.
* Support for inline input in double-byte script systems
(yes, that means Style is KanjiTalk7 compatible and TSM-aware!)
* Ability to set print margins accurately.
* Various bug fixes.
This version supersedes all previous releases.

[ This program is freeware. ]
>From the Readme file:
TCXdiff is a text file comparison utility which generates a difference (diff)
file for a given source file. The diff file can be used to update an older
version of the source file stored on another computer (normally, a Unix
machine). By transferring the much shorter diff file instead of the entire
source file, significant upload time can be saved. This is especially useful
for people who connect to Unix hosts using slow dial-up modems. Although the
primary focus of TCXdiff is for programmers who need to synchronize their
program files between their personal computer and a Unix host, it can be used
to update any other text file as well.
TCXdiff is based on the freeware program Xdiff written in August 1989 at the
National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). You can obtain Xdiff
via anonymous ftp from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu. The Xdiff package is needed in
addition to TCXdiff since TCXdiff DOES NOT perform the updating per se, but
relies on xfix (part of the Xdiff package) to perform that task. Xfix was
written primarily for Unix hosts, I have not tried to compile it on other
platforms.
TCXdiff is functionally equivalent to Xdiff. However, it adds the ability to
specify default folders and filenames (useful for batch processing), as well
as drag-and-drop file processing capabilities.

Subject: TEFix 1.0 Submission
TEFix fixes a cosmetic bug in TextEdit. Source code is included.
To see the type of bug that TEFix fixes, open a new, untitled document using
TeachText and type three lines of unbroken dashes. Use the mouse to place the
insertion point on the second line, then use the left arrow to back up to the
first line. Notice how the insertion point skips the last character on the
first line? That's one of the bugs that TEFix corrects.
TEFix cannot conflict with other extensions as long as it is loaded first.
For the memory-conscious, TEFix takes up 448 bytes of system heap space.

this is a FAQ. I've compiled here the more thorough answers...not that the

these responders may not have wanted available to everyone. Better safe than

Many great thanks to those who responded. I am now playing with OzTeX and am

* Put the hot spot of HyperCard's text cursor in the normal place.
* Make unfriendly apps like AOL let you use system menus
even when a modal dialog is showing.
* A form of word wrap (e.g., for THINK C or BBEdit Lite).
* Type (), [], {} in matched pairs.
* Same for $$, for TeX.
* Common emacs keystrokes.

Subject: TextTrap.sit
TextTrap is freeware from Michael Budiansky of Pi Zero Software. It's a
flexible capture utility which allows you to save to disk any text written
to the Mac screen. Buttons allow you to toggle on or off the saving of text
written by DrawText, DrawJust, DrawString, and DrawChar commands.
Don't confuse this with usual capture utilities which save a screen at a
time. You can set this control panel running and capture a whole session of
communication with a mainframe, for example, without having to copy and
paste each screen. You can also capture help files from programs that do
not allow them to be printed or selected for copy/paste.
I have one fancy program for IBM 3278 emulation while connected with a
mainframe. It has its own capture utility for the session--but the opened
captured session is virtually unreadable, filled with color and graphic
escape sequences. This utility provides a readable copy of such sessions.

This is Torquemada 1.1.0, a Macintosh bulk search and replace utility. It
operates on files of type 'TEXT' and incorporates a number of features to
facilitate the wholesale revision of text. Among these are more than 30
"wildcards" of various stripes, which make it possible to write very
elaborate search and replace strings. Strings are stored in sets of up to
twenty strings per set. Up to 32 set files can be deployed at once, yielding
a total of 640 search and replace strings. Under System Seven, up to 32 set
files and up to 128 text files can be dropped on the program's icon; each
set will be run against each text file in an unattended batch.

Subject: [*] "undigest" for Unix mail

This perl script runs on Unix systems. It is useful for parsing
digest email. For example, from inside elm (the Unix mail program)
simply pipe a message thru "undigest".
"Undigest" will break all the messages inside the digest into
individual messages and display them. It does not alter the original
message, it makes a copy.
I did not write this, I just use it.
I guess this should show up in the Unix dir.

UsenEdit v1.1.3 (thats /Yooz' ned it/) is a very small, very fast text
editor. It was written to cooperate with Peter Speck's Nuntius newsreader,
especially in low-memory situations.
Features:
Multiple files of 32k each open at the same time;
Takes only 50k of RAM to operate;
Full Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo support, including F1-F4 on extended kybds;
Stationery documents for all those various .sigs;
Email-ware, no $$$!;
AppleEvent aware (sorry, no AppleScript);
Wordwrap at specified boundary (without <RETURN>'s!)
Requirements:
50k free RAM;
System 7.0 or later;
Cost:
All you do is send me email saying where you found UsenEdit, what you
think of it, and what you would like to see in future versions!
Modifications and fixes since v1.1.2:
* Miscellaneous code improvements;
* Text caret no longer disappears below the bottom of the window;
* User can now specify the maximum number of windows;
* Files larger than 32k are opened into Untitled windows so you don't
accidentally overwrite the original.
* No longer saves a blank document on top of the original if you "Cut"
the entire text out of the document.
* "Save" is now available after "Cut", "Clear", etc.
