CUSTOMISING ........................................# CHAPTER 2 CUSTOMISING .imCustomising Word Fugue .ix Changing settings Customisation falls into two categories - those items that you can change while Word Fugue is running, and those items that you must run the installation program to change. .TC Options Configurable From Inside Word Fugue ........# Options Configurable From Inside Word Fugue This is accomplished by running Word Fugue. If you have a floppy system, make sure that the default drive is A: by typing in A: And pressing Enter. If you have a hard disk system, make sure that you are in the Word Fugue directory by typing CD C:\WF <enter> if your directory was WF or the appropriate name Now you run Word Fugue by typing in at the DOS prompt WF Word Fugue will load, and come up with a screen showing among other things <none> for the file name. You will see a comment <F10> for menus, <F1> for Help, <AltX> to Save & Exit on the top line. If you have changed the installed keystrokes (see below), then the key strokes you have installed will appear instead. <F10> for Menus, <F1> for Help, <AltX> to Save & Exit 09:58:58 <none> 0% Line 1 Col 1 Page 1 Ins Indent Wrap L---+---!1----+-!--2----!----3--!-+----4!---+---!5----+-!--6----!----R---+----8 Press Function key 10 to activate the pulldown menu system, followed by "O" (that is the letter O) for options. Each of the categories may be chosen by pressing the letter that is highlighted, or by using the arrow keys to move the highlight bar over the appropriate option and pressing Enter. Most options are covered under their own sections, but those relating to Customisation are discussed below. .pa 10:03:33 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search±Options±Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Global file options.. ∫ ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ ∫ Ruler.. ∫ ∫ Display options.. ∫ ∫ Auto save .. ∫ ∫ Lexicon Names .. ∫ ∫ Colors.. ∫ ∫ Save setup ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.1 - Options Menu .tc1 Fig 2.1 - Options Menu ................................# .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Configured options are saved by pressing S (for Save Setup) while on the options menu.

The margins available are: Left margin - where characters you type will be indented to. Right margin - if word wrap is active, characters typed past this will wrap onto the next line. Top margin - the number of blank lines to allow down from the top of the paper before printing. The headings will print here. Bottom margin - the number of blank lines to leave at the bottom of the page. The footers will print here. .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Page length - the number of physical lines that fit on a page. The top and bottom margin will be subtracted from this to arrive at the appropriate number of lines of text body to print per page. Spacing - indicates whether the file will print in normal spacing (1.00) or some other multiple. For example: Double line spacing = 2.00{.Œ} One & half spacing = 1.50{.Œ} 8 Lines per inch = 0.75{.Œ} (Normal is 6 lines per inch){.Œ} .tc Format Options ...................................# Format Options <CtrlO><CtrlJ> 10:08:03 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫±Format±options..±±±±±±±∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ ∫ Justify OFF ∫ons.. ∫ ∫ Word wrap ON ∫. ∫ ∫ Autoindent ON ∫ ∫ ∫ Insert mode ON ∫ ∫ ∫ Page breaks ON ∫ ∫ ∫ Column mode OFF ∫ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Replace column ON ∫ ∫ Squash line on wrap OFF ∫ ∫ auto reFormat OFF ∫ ∫ Enter gives paragraph OFF ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.3 - Format Options .tc1 Fig 2.3 - Format Options ..............................# Select this menu by typing F for Format options on the Options menu. The Format Options available are: .ixJustification;Justification of Text (^O^J or .RR) Justify - if word wrap is active, the lines of text will be spread out between the left and right margins, so that all right hand words will line up on the right hand margin. When this option is ON, the second line of the edit screen will show justify. Word Wrap must be ON as well. Turning this On will turn Word Wrap on if not ON already. It will also turn on "Squash line on Wrap" so that any padding inserted previously will be removed. Word Wrap - This determines what happens when lines of text go beyond the right hand margin. When Word Wrap is ON, the line will be broken at a convenient place, and the additional words will be placed on the next line. When Word Wrap is active, and Continuous Reformat is not, the second line will show Wrap. Autoindent - This determines where the cursor will go when you press Enter. If Autoindent is ON, the cursor will line up underneath the start of the line above. If it is OFF, the cursor will return to the left margin. When this option is ON, the status line will show Indent. This option is very useful for programmers. Insert Mode - When Insert mode is ON, newly typed text is inserted into the line, pushing aside characters to the right of the cursor to make room. If Insert mode is OFF, the newly typed characters overwrite existing text. When Insert is ON, the status line will show Ins, while if Insert is OFF, the status line will show Ovr. .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Page Breaks - When pagination is activated, the right two columns of the text window will be devoted to showing page breaks. The characters û¯ in those columns indicate that the corresponding line is the first printing text line on its page. In addition, the status line for the window will indicate what page number the cursor is on. Column Mode - When Column mode is OFF, all text between the start block marker and the end block marker is moved/copied/deleted. If Column Mode is ON, the start marker is considered to mark the top left corner of a rectangular block, while the end marker is considered to mark the bottom right corner. If the Block end column is less than the block start column, no block will be visible. If Column Mode is ON, the status line will show either Tbl I if Column Replace is OFF, or Tbl R if Column Replace is ON. If word wrap is ON, columns of text can be delineated by the use of < and > or ] in the ruler line. In this case, columns of text will wrap independently of other columns, paragraph reformat will only reformat text within the column boundaries, text will only insert within the column (other columns will not be displaced), and delete character and delete word will only delete within column boundaries. Replace Column - Column replace mode only has meaning in conjunction with Column Mode being ON. When Column Replace Mode is ON moved and copied blocks will overwrite any text in the area they are copied to, and delete and move will space fill the deleted text. When Column Replace mode is OFF, moved and copied blocks will push existing text to the right, and delete and move will suck text left to fill the hole left by the deleted text. Squash Line On Wrap - By default, Word Fugue compresses padding out of any line before it is wrapped. This feature is required in order to "unjustify" text that has previously been right justified. It defaults to ON. When Off, padding is not deleted during word wrap operations. Auto Reformat - When this is ON and word wrap is set, the current paragraph is reformatted as you edit it. If you press any key, reformatting stops until you pause. The pause is about a second, and in most cases, the paragraph can be reformatted before you continue typing. When this is OFF paragraphs are not reformatted unless you use the Reformat Paragraph command. .CP5 Enter gives paragraph - When this is ON, each press of the Enter key will insert a paragraph marker into the text at the cursor position. Paragraph markers mark the end of a paragraph for Word Wrapping operations. When this option is OFF, pressing Enter will not insert a paragraph mark. Normally paragraphs are delimited by a blank line, so pressing Enter to create a new line will still include that line with the preceding lines for paragraph reformatting operations. .tc Ruler Line .......................................# Ruler Line <CtrlO><CtrlI> 10:08:08 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ ∫±Ruler..±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕªe options.. ∫ ∫ Set line ∫tions.. ∫ ∫ Put line ∫.. ∫ ∫ Restore even ∫ ∫ ∫ Edit Ruler ∫ ∫ ∫ Display Ruler ON ∫ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Fixed ON ∫ ∫ Tab size 8 ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.4 - Ruler Line Options .tc1 Fig 2.4 - Ruler Line Options ..........................# .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Select this menu by typing T for Tabs on the Options menu. The Tab Options available are: Set Line - The tab settings will be initialised based on the contents of the current line of text. The start of each blank-delimited word will set a tab at that column. Any other tabs will be cleared. By using this command in concert with the Put Tabs command, you can store a custom tab line as part of a document and easily use it later. You can return to the default evenly spaced tabs by activating the Options Tabs Restore even menu selections. Put Line - The tab settings etc of the ruler line are stored into the current window as a formatted text line. The line begins with the Word Fugue dot command (.RR), and will not be printed. Use this command in concert with the Set tabs command to store a custom tab line as part of a document for later use. Restore Even - Tabs will be set on an even spacing as determined by the current default tab spacing. Any other tab settings will be cleared. Edit Ruler - Tab positions and columns can be interactively edited using this command. The cursor will be moved to the current window's tab line display. Use the cursor keys or the tab key to move along the tab line. Pressing the space bar will toggle a tab setting on or off, pressing the <Ins> key will add a tab, pressing the <Del> key will delete a tab at the cursor position. Press <Enter> when editing is complete, or <Esc> to undo any changes made. .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Display Ruler - Toggling Display Ruler ON reserves one line of the current window for display of tab settings and margins. The tabs and margins can be active whether or not the tab line is visible. Fixed Tabs - When fixed tabs are ON, tab positions are taken from a table of columns that you can set to even spacing or customise through various tab commands. When fixed tabs are OFF, tab positions are based on the contents of the text line above the current line, just like the Turbo Pascal editor. Tab Size - By default, a tab is placed after every eight columns of text. This tab size is also used when files containing tabs are read into Word Fugue. Change the tab size and use the Restore even command to initialise a different set of regularly spaced tabs. .tc Global File Options ..............................# Global File Options 10:08:17 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ ∫ Ruler.. ∫ ∫±Global±file±options..±±∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ ∫ Home directory C:\WF\ ∫ ∫ ∫ file Extension ∫ ∫ ∫ Read tabs as spaces ON ∫ ∫ ∫ Write spaces as tabs OFF ∫Õº ∫ Strip hi-bit OFF ∫ ∫ Undo limit 20 ∫ ∫ Make Backup ON ∫ ∫ Dot command character . ∫ ∫ File descriptions 4Dos ∫ ∫ Ctrl Z as EOF ON ∫ ∫ Invoke DOS Available Memory ∫ ∫ Config file WF.CFG ON ∫ ∫ Pick file WF.PCK ON ∫ ∫ Create New file name ON ∫ ∫ Always use descriptions ON ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.5 - Global File Options .tc1 Fig 2.5 - Global File Options .........................# Select this menu by typing G for Global file options on the Options menu. The Global File Options available are: Home Directory - Word Fugue uses several files in its operation. These contain the current printer definition, default macros, and this help file. In order to run Word Fugue from a drive or directory other than where these files are located, you will need to set up a Home Directory. The home directory specifies the location of the optional Word Fugue support files on your system. The following files should be kept in that directory: WF.HLP WF.MAC *.PDF WF.OVR WF_MAIN.DIC .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Word Fugue will operate without the use of these files (except the Overlay file WF.OVR), but in that case certain program features will not be available. After the home directory is set, it can be saved with Word Fugue's Save Setup command. If you operate from floppy disks, the home directory should be set to the drive you will load the program from (usually A:). This drive should always have in it a disk with WF.OVR on it. File Extension - If you edit many files with the same extension, such as .DOC, you should enter that value for the default extension. Word Fugue will automatically supply the default extension whenever you respond to a filename prompt without entering an extension. The extension you enter should not include a period or any DOS wildcards, and is limited to three characters. Read Tabs as Spaces - When tab expansion is ON, any tabs encountered upon reading of a file are expanded into spaces, using a tab spacing that you specify. If tab expansion is OFF, Word Fugue leaves the tabs intact. In this case, Word Fugue does not expand tabs as it displays them, so these will be displayed on the screen as I. Write Spaces as Tabs - By default, Word Fugue does not write tab characters in files saved from the editor. If Tab Writing is activated, Word Fugue will translate sequences of spaces to tabs in order to save disk space for the output file. Tabs are computed using the fixed spacing currently set for fixed tabs. Multiple spaces found within pairs of single or double quotes (as used in Pascal or C source code) will not be converted to tabs. Strip Hi Bits - When Hi-bit strip is ON, the most significant bit of each character read from the disk will be set to zero. This is useful when reading in files previously generated in WordStar document mode. Note that stripping the high bit will also affect any usage of the IBM extended ASCII character set, such as the line drawing characters. Undo Limit - This specifies the maximum number of lines of deleted text that will be stored in the Undo buffer. If Undo limit is 10, and you delete 15 lines, the first five lines deleted will be lost. Whenever lines are Undeleted, that space is recovered for the undo buffer to reuse. The default limit is 200. .ixBackup;Backup Files Make Backup - When this is ON the old version of the file (before editing) is saved with the extension of .BAK When this is OFF the old version is not saved. Dot Command Character - This defaults to a dot, which is the WordStarTM standard. Print commands such as page breaks, headings and footers and so on are recognised by the appearance of the Print Command Character in column one of your text. The print command lines do not print, but they instruct Word Fugue to do something during printing. You can change which character you want recognised as a print command character by selecting this option, and typing in a character to the prompt. You can use any special character (ie not a letter or a number) such as @ or # if you prefer. .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings File Descriptions - This command toggles the file description storage between Word Fugue's proprietary format (stored in FILEINFO.WF) and that supported by 4Dos - the shareware COMMAND.COM replacement (stored in DESCRIPT.ION). If you have 4Dos and use the Describe command, then you should probably store file descriptions in 4Dos format. That gives you up to 40 characters of description. The word Fugue format gives you up to 65 characters. This option can be saved with the Save options command. Descriptions stored in FILEINFO.WF can be converted to 4DOS format by the use of a utility program WF_2_4D.EXE. Descriptions are discussed further in chapter 8 - Managing Files. Ctrl Z as EOF - This command allows you to determine whether or not a ^Z character marks the end of a file. Wordstar and most editors use a ^Z character to mark the end of a file, but some editors do not, instead using the actual file length. Word Fugue will always read the actual file length, but will search the last block (approx 4,000 characters) for a ^Z if this option is ON. However, sometimes you may need to edit a file where ^Z is used to mean something else other than End Of File (eg it displays on screen as an arrow). In such cases you should turn this option OFF. Invoke DOS - This command determines how much memory is made available when you invoke a DOS command. The default is only available memory which is left after the program is loaded plus any files you may be editing. On a machine with 640k this is normally more than adequate, but there can be times when you need more memory to be made available. If you set this option to All Memory, then a stub of approximately 8K remains in memory, while the rest of the program and memory it is using is swapped either to EMS memory (if you have some and sufficient is available) or to the default disk drive and directory (if there is sufficient room there). On disk, the swap file is called WF.$WP, and is marked as a system and hidden file. It will not be visible to normal DOS commands. Do not delete this file after shelling to DOS, or you will lock up your machine when you try to exit back to Word Fugue. Config file - This command allows you to save your configured options to disk, in the current directory. This is useful if you need to have different settings in different directories. Turning this option ON will save configuration settings in the file WF.CFG in the current directory. This enables you to have different configurations in different directories. However, if you do not want different configurations, you should turn this option OFF. When this option is OFF, configuration settings are written only to the WF.EXE file. Pick file - This command allows you to save the names of the last 12 files you edited, along with certain information such as cursor position, marked block and bookmarks. If you subsequently edit one of these files again, Word Fugue will remember where you left off last time. The list is saved in the file WF.PCK in the current directory, so you can have different lists in different directories. Turning this option OFF disables it. Create New file name - This option (when ON) specifies that if you start Word Fugue without specifying a file name, or open a new file and blank it out, that Word Fugue will generate a pseudo-random number and convert that to a file name. This saves you the trouble of inventing file names for each file that you write. It is highly recommended that you always use file descriptions if you take advantage of this option, since the file names will not be meaningful if you want to find a particular document. Always use descriptions - This option (when ON), will cause Word Fugue to prompt you for a description for a file whenever you create a new file. It will not check an existing file for a description. .cp40 .tc Display Options ..................................# Display Options 10:08:21 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ ∫ Ruler.. ∫ ∫ Global file options.. ∫ ∫±Display±options..±±±±±±∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª .. ∫ ∫ Snow control OFF ∫ ∫ ∫ Block cursor OFF ∫p ∫ ∫ Display size 80x25 ∫ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Font display ON ∫ ∫ Key help ON ∫ ∫ Zoom state OFF ∫ ∫ Paging Csr ∫ ∫ Mouse scroll ON ∫ ∫ Visible Padding ON ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.6 - Display Options Menu .tc1 Fig 2.6 - Display Options Menu ........................# .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Select this menu by typing D for Display options on the Options menu. The Display Options available are: Snow Control - When Snow Control is ON, Word Fugue avoids the screen interference patterns called "snow" that are produced by certain display adaptors, notably the IBM Colour Graphics Adaptor. For other colour adaptors, the Snow Control can be turned off. This improves screen updating performance considerably. Block Cursor - Word Fugue offers a choice between a blinking hardware cursor and a solid unblinking cursor. The colour of the block cursor can be set via the Options Colors menu. This Block Cursor can be very useful on Lap Top PCs. .CP15 .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Display Size - Word Fugue offers a choice of display sizes, but your computer may not be able to display them all. …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª{.Œ} ∫ 25 lines x 80 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 28 lines x 80 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 43/50 lines x 80 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 60 lines x 80 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 25 lines x 132 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 28 lines x 132 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 43 lines x 132 cols ∫{.Œ} ∫ 25 lines x 40 cols ∫{.Œ} »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº{.Œ} On computers equipped with an Enhanced Graphics Adaptor, Word Fugue can display 43 lines on the screen. On computers equipped with an VGA or Super VGA display, Word Fugue can display 50 lines on the screen, or 28 lines on the screen. On computers with a Super VGA display, Word Fugue can display up to 132 columns. Please note that this mode is not standard to all SVGA adaptors, and may not work on yours. Most displays also support a 40 column by 25 line mode, which can be very useful for those with partial blindness or other eye problems that require large letters for them to be readable. Please note that some compromises have had to be made with prompts to ensure that they will fit within the 40 column format. In general, if a particular mode is not supported by your adaptor, your display should revert to 25 line by 80 column mode. If your display does something strange when you select a high resolution mode, you should press enter twice, which will attempt to return the display to 25 line by 80 column mode (the standard). .ixWYSIWYG;WYSIWYG Font Display - When Font Display is enabled, print formatting commands that control font selections will not be displayed on-screen. Instead the marked text will be displayed in a colour or attribute corresponding to the font. This "what you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG) mode allows more accurate alignment of tables, and avoids multiple print cycles to correct formatting commands. any print functions you use will also be converted to an approximation of how they will print, although such things as note references, file names could change between the editing of the text and the printing of it. The screen colors for each font may be adjusted on the Options Colors menu. When font display is enabled, the control characters that select the fonts are not visible. However, the cursor can be positioned over the control character, and it can be deleted if desired. The Word Fugue hardware cursor grows to a large block when it is positioned over the control character. The value of the control character will be displayed at the right hand edge of the window status line when the cursor is positioned over it. Word Fugue computes the display of on-screen fonts while it is waiting for you to enter keystrokes. As a result, if you enter new text it may take a short period of time before control characters disappear and fonts are drawn in their final colors. .CP6 .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Key Help - When Key Help is ON, Word Fugue will display the command sequences that correspond to each menu selection while you are browsing through the menu system. This can serve to familiarise you with the quick keystrokes and speed up your editing. .CP6 Zoom State - The state of this toggle determines Word Fugue's default behaviour when more than one window is on the screen. When Initial Zoom State is OFF, multiple windows will appear simultaneously on the screen, that is, they will not be zoomed. When Initial Zoom State is ON, multiple windows will be zoomed. The last file opened will be visible on the screen, and others will be hidden behind it. Initial Zoom State is saved as a Word Fugue default. The normal zoom window command may be used at any time, regardless of Initial Zoom State. Set Paging Amount - This command will set the Page Up and Page Down amount to Page - move a full screen page at a time Half - move only half a screen page at a time Csr - move so that cursor is at top or bottom of screen or a full screen page if it is already there Mouse Scroll Bars - If Word Fugue detects a mouse, it will display scroll bars down the right hand side of the screen if this option is ON. They will not be displayed otherwise. Visible Padding - When this is ON, any padding inserted during a justification operation will display on screen as {. } instead of spaces. In addition the non breaking space (^P^O) will display on screen as O instead of spaces. When this option is OFF, these characters display as spaces on screen. NOTE - these characters will ALWAYS print as spaces. .CP40 .tc Autosave .........................................# Autosave 10:08:25 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ ∫ Ruler.. ∫ ∫ Global file options.. ∫ ∫ Display options.. ∫ ∫±Auto±save±..±±±±±±±±±±±∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ ∫ Time (minutes) 15 ∫ ∫ ∫ Key strokes 2000 ∫ÕÕº ∫ Autosave ON ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.7 - Autosave Menu .tc1 Fig 2.7 - Autosave Menu ...............................# .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings Select this option by typing A for Autosave on the Options menu.

This is the large version of the English language dictionary, that recognises US, British & Australian spellings. There is a shorter version that contains only 72000 words called WF_SHORT.LEX. In addition, special language editions are available, such as WF_USA.LEX for American only spelling, and WFENGLSH.LEX, which recognises only non American spellings. Foreign language users should check with your local distributor to see what foreign languages are supported. Foreign language (non english) dictionaries are generally the property of the local distributor, and not Fugue Software. The dictionary to be used for spell checking can be set from the pull down menu, under the Lexicon file options of the Options menu. Selecting this option will display the name of the main dictionary, and the name of the local dictionary. Selecting Main dictionary will display a prompt for path and extension C:\WF\*.LEX which means display all files with the extension .LEX in the directory WF on the C drive. Pressing enter will show a list of available files. Highlight the one you want, and press enter. The new file name will now be displayed. In the same manner, you can change the name of the auxiliary file used for recording special words you do not want in your main dictionary, eg proper names that you want to ensure are capitalised properly. The extension for these files is set to .DIC to distinguish them from the main dictionary. Any changes you make can be saved by use of the Save setup option, in which case they will be available next time you run the program. .pa .tc Colors ...........................................# Colors ^≥v≥<> to select color, <Enter> to change, <Esc> to ignore 10:08:57 …ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕª ∫ File Window Text Block Goto Search Options Miscellaneous Quit Help ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÀÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Margins.. ∫ ∫ Format options.. ∫ …ÕÕÕÕÕÕ Colors ÕÕÕÕÕÕª …ÕÕÕ Choices ÕÕÕÕª ∫ ∫Ø Normal Text ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯€¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ options.. ∫ ∫ Marked Block ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ions.. ∫ ∫ Window Status ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯*¯¯¯¯¯∫. ∫ ∫ Prompt Line ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ ∫ Block Cursor ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ ∫ Menu Text ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº ∫ Menu Frame ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Menu Select ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Menu Hilite ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Bold text ^B ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Doublestrike ^D ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Underscore ^S ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Superscript ^T ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Subscript ^V ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Compressed ^A ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Italic ^Y ∫ ∫¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯∫ ∫ Attributes ∫ »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº »ÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕÕº Fig 2.9 - Color Menu .tc1 Fig 2.9 - Color Menu ..................................# .ixCustomising Wo; Changing settings .imColours .ix Colour Monitors Colors - All of the editor colors can be customised to your liking. Independent color settings are available for normal text, block marked text, window status lines, the prompt line at the top of the screen, text in menus and prompt boxes, menu frames, the highlighted character by which each menu item may be selected, the currently selected menu item, the block cursor (when active), and each of the seven selectable fonts.

You will be presented with a window displaying all the colors available to you. The current color is highlighted by an asterisk (*), and the default color (if different) by a block (˛).

With Versions of Word Fugue of 2.01 and greater, the configuration data will also be saved to a file WF.CFG in the current directory. These options will be loaded in the next time you run Word Fugue, and will take precedence over the options defined inside the program. The reason for using the current directory is to allow you to set up different configurations for different directories, say your program sources, where you do not want word wrap on, and your word processing directory, where you do. If the configuration file cannot be found, the options installed into the code file will be used. .lm1 .tc Installation of Key Strokes ........................# Installation of Key Strokes .ix Installing keystrokes Changing the Installed Keystrokes is achieved by running a program called WFINST. It will allow you to customise the program, but you can do that once you become more familiar with it. The program also recreates the help file so that the key sequences you have installed will appear correctly in the help text. You can find out all about how to run in it appendix B.
