-
- 9. 12. 92
- Release V1.4
-
- Write V2.4:
- - Write frames can be nested.
- - Scrolling backwards implemented (right mouse key in scroll bar).
- - Scrolling to end of text (middle-left) shows the end of the text at
- the bottom of the frame.
- - Right margin of a paragraph can be set with Write.Set right
- (number | "default") directly.
- - Setting the left margin with Write.Set left does not change the right
- margin, but the width of the paragraph is adjusted. This corresponds with
- the interactive setting of the left margin.
- - Write.Open and Write.SysOpen accept strings to specify filenames that
- do not follow the Oberon naming convention.
- - The Tick in the scroll bar is two pixels high. This helps in
- discriminating between Text frames and Write frames.
