- .he Word Fugue License Agreement
-
- (1) Copyright: The Word Fugue program and all other programs
- and documentation distributed or shipped with it are Copyright
- to Fugue Software, 1988, 1994, and are protected by Australian
- and international copyright law. In the rest of this document,
- this collection of programs is referred to simply as "Word
- Fugue". You are granted a license to use your copy of Word
- Fugue only under the terms and conditions specified in this
- license agreement.
-
- (2) Use of One Copy on Two Computers: If you have a copy of
- Word Fugue which is licensed for use on a single computer, you
- may install it on two computers used at two different locations
- (for example, at work and at home), provided there is no
- possibility that the two computers will be in use at the same
- time, and provided that you yourself have purchased Word Fugue,
- or if Word Fugue was purchased by your employer, that you have
- your employer's explicit permission to install Word Fugue on
- two systems as described in this paragraph. The right to
- install one copy of Word Fugue on two computers is limited to
- copies originally licensed for use on a single computer, and
- may not be used to expand the number of systems covered under a
- multi-system license.
-
- (3) Use of Word Fugue on Networks or Multiple Systems: You may
- install your registered copy of Word Fugue on a computer
- attached to a network, or remove it from one computer and
- install it on a different one, provided there is no possibility
- that your copy will be used by more users than it is licensed
- for. A "user" is defined as one keyboard which is connected to
- a computer on which Word Fugue is installed, regardless of
- whether or not the user of the keyboard is aware of the
- installation or use of Word Fugue in the system.
-
- (4) Making Copies: You may copy any version of Word Fugue for
- normal backup purposes, and you may give copies of the
- shareware version to other individuals, which they may also use
- and copy subject to the terms of this agreement. If you copy
- the shareware version of Word Fugue for others, you must
- include all of the files distributed with it, including this
- one. You may not give copies of the registered version to any
- other person for any purpose, and you may not make any copies
- of the printed and bound Word Fugue manual without explicit
- written permission from Fugue Software.
-
- (5) Distribution Restrictions: ASP Vendors may distribute Word
- Fugue as part of their shareware offerings provided they abide
- by the ASP regulations and guidelines. Non ASP vendors may
- distribute Word Fugue shareware version provided they
- distribute the entire Word Fugue package. They may add files to
- it, but under no circumstances may they remove files. They must
- also inform buyers of their obligation to register the program
- if they continue to use it after a reasonable evaluation
- period. NON ASP vendors must also not charge more than a
- reasonable copying fee for the disks (around $US3 per 360k
- disk, and no more than $US8 for 1.4M disks). Individual copies
- of the shareware version may be passed to friends and
- associates for their individual use provided the entire package
- is passed on, and the recipient is made aware of their
- obligation to register. This same applies to hardware vendors
- who bundle shareware with their systems. Specifically, Word
- Fugue is NOT free or Public Domain, and you may not represent
- it as such. You may not sell the registered version without
- express written permission from Fugue Software.
-
- .CP4
- (6) Use of Word Fugue: Word Fugue is a powerful program. While
- we have attempted to build in reasonable safeguards, if you do
- not use Word Fugue properly you may destroy files or cause
- other damage to your computer software and data. You assume
- full responsibility for the selection and use of Word Fugue to
- achieve your intended results. As stated below, Fugue Software
- limits its warranty to replacement of a defective program
- diskette or manual.
-
- (7) LIMITED WARRANTY: Fugue Software warrants to owners of
- registered copies of Word Fugue that the software will operate
- in accordance with the description given in the documentation,
- and that the diskette and manual will be free of physical
- defects which interfere with normal use. For a period of 90
- days from the date of your purchase of Word Fugue, Fugue

- and not the result of misuse or abuse. Such a refund, repair,
- or replacement shall be your sole remedy for any defects,
- program error(s), or documentation error(s). In no event shall
- Fugue Software be responsible for any other costs or damages
- whatsoever due to errors in usage or your failure to read,
- understand, or follow instructions in the documentation. FUGUE
- SOFTWARE MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,

- Word Fugue V3.1
-
- Welcome to Word Fugue, the industrial strength word processor that is
- available as shareware.
-
- This document described the changes included in the new version 3.1,
- as well as suplementing some of the existing V3.0 documentation.
-
-
- .tc Hyphenation ....................................................#
- Hyphenation
- .im Hyphenation
-
- This feature is in V3.0, but for some reason, it was left out of the
- V3.0 documentation.
-
- Hyphenation is the process of breaking a word into 2 parts, one at the
- end of the line with a hyphen (-) to indicate that the word continues
- on the next line, and the rest of the word on the next line. It is
- used primarily for reasons of aesthetics, in order to avoid excessively
- ragged right margins when a word will not fit on the end of the line.
-
- Hyphenation is optional with Word Fugue, meaning that you can turn
- this feature ON or OFF. When it is ON, Word Fugue can insert hyphens
- during Word Wrap and paragraph reformat operations. When it is OFF,
- the entire word is moved to the next line. If the paragraph is
- reformatted again, any existing hyphens are removed first.
-
- Exactly where the hyphen is inserted is controlled by Word Fugue,
- under guidence of the Hyphen Hot Zone option.

-
- Fig 1 - Hyphen options
-
- On the menu shown above, there are 2 options which control
- hyphenation. The "Hyphenation" option turns it ON and OFF, as
- described above.
-
- .CP5
- The second option "Hyphen Hot Zone" defines the region of the word
- which Word Fugue can hyphenate. A word will be hyphenated if the
- number of characters in the word to the left of the right margin
- exceeds (or is equal to) the Hyphen Hot Zone setting. In addition,
- the number of characters in the remainder of the word must be at least
- equal to the Hyphen Hot Zone setting. This avoids the hyphenation of 3
- and 4 letter words which is not aesthetically pleasing.
- .ix Hyphenation; Hot Zone
- .ix Hot; Hot Zone for hyphenation
- .ix Zone; Zone for hyphenation
-
- For example:
-
- If Hyphen Hot Zone is 3, then words will be hyphenated if there
- are at least 3 characters within the right margin, and if there
- are at least 3 characters left in the remainder of the word. The
- rest of the word will be moved to the next line. Thus the
- candidate word must be at least 5 characters long.
-
- Hy|phenation ->
- Hyphenation
-
- Hyp|henation -> Hy-
- phenation
-
- Hyphena|tion -> Hyphen-
- ation
-
- Hyphenati|on -> Hyphenat-
- ion
-
- Hyphenatio|n -> Hyphenat-
- ion
-
- Note that in the first case, there aren't 3 characters before the
- right margin, so the whole word is moved to the next line.
-
- Note that in the last case, the hyphen position is moved back so
- that there are 3 characters on the next line.
-
- If the Hyphen Hot zone is set to 5, the minimum word length for
- hyphenation is 9 (4 plus hyphen on first line and 5 on second
- line) and it will work like this:
-
- Hyph|enation ->
- Hyphenation
-
- Hyphe|nation -> Hyph-
- enation
-
- Hyphena|tion -> Hyphen-
- ation
-
- Hyphenat|ion -> Hyphen-
- ation
-
- Note that in the first case, there aren't 5 characters before the
- right margin, so the whole word is moved to the next line.
-
- .CP5
- Note that in the last case, the hyphen position is moved back so
- that there are 5 characters on the next line. If this does not
- leave sufficient characters at the front of the word, the entire
- word will be moved to the next line (assuming a hyphen Hot zone of 5):
-
- Somet|imes ->
- Sometimes
-
- The Hyphen Hot Zone can be set to any value between 2 and 9. As a
- general rule, a value between 3 and 5 appears to give the best results.

- Now if you cannot remember the full name of the directory to which you
- wish to change, you can browse the list of directories on yot hard disk.
-
- Normally you would overtype the Current Directory prompt with the name
- of the new directory. Then you would press enter to change to that
- directory.
-
- However, now you can enter *.* and see a list of directories on your
- hard disk. You can even highlight any of these directories and press
- enter to see what directories it contains. When you find the one you
- want to select, press Ctrl Enter to select it (not enter, since this
- will browse the next level).

- Insertion
-
- In versions 2 and 3 ruler lines were inserted in the text only when you
- decided to insert them using the Put Ruler Line command (Ctrl O O).
- While this was simple, it sometimes lead to unfortunate side effects
- if you inserted a ruler line, then changed the margin - the margin
- change would be forgotten when you reloaded the file, and could
- sometimes be over-ridden by the ruler line.
-
- These side effects did not occur if you always inserted the ruler line
- and modified it to reflect the changes.
- .ix Modify margins
-
- With this version, you have the option of inserting a ruler line into
- the text whenever you change the margins or edit the ruler line. The
- default is to insert the ruler line whenever you change the margins or
- edit the ruler line, although if you do not like this behaviour you
- can turn it OFF.

- Start Up Parameters
-
- Some additional parameters have been added when starting the program.
- If you use an option, it is placed on the command line after the
- program name and separated from it by a space. The ordering of the
- parameters is not important, and they can be placed before or after
- any file names.
- .ix /NM
- .ix Mouse ; Mouse Driver
- .ix Mouse D; switching OFF
- .ix Mouse D; No Mouse
- .ix Mouse D; /NM startup parameter
- .ix No Mous; No Mouse
- .tc No Mouse /nm ................................................#
-
- for example:
-
- WF fred /NM
- wf /nm fred
-
- are equivalent start up commands. Each will start the program
- without the mouse driver, and open the file FRED.2WF for
- editing. If the file does not exist, a new one will be
- created.
-
- The new parameters are:
-
- No Mouse - /NM or /nm
-
- Prevents the activation of the mouse driver code. The mouse driver
- code is that supplied with Borland Pascal (the compiler we use for
- Word Fugue), but we have had isolated reports of problems with some
- "No Name" mice.
-
- If you try to start Word Fugue and it dies immediately (before the
- credits screen is displayed), try this parameter.
-
- This setting can be set and saved from the options menu as well. See
- the option "Mouse Scroll". When set to OFF and saved, the mouse
- driver will not be activated next time you start the program.

- .tc No Enhanced Keyboard /ne ....................................#
-
- Prevents the activation of the enhanced keyboard driver.
-
- Function keys F11 and F12 require the enhanced keyboard driver for
- them to work. Word Fugue ships with code that tries to detect
- whether you have an enhanced keyboard, and if so, enables the
- enhanced keyboard driver. Some very old TSRs will not work once this
- is done, and lock up the keyboard. (Old versions of BOOST are one
- situation.)
-
- If you start Word Fugue, and it loads properly, but refuses to
- respond to the keyboard once loaded, try this option.
-
- This setting can be set and saved from the options menu as well. See
- the option "Enhanced Keyboard". When set to OFF and saved, the
- detection of an enhanced keyboard will be disabled next time you
- start Word Fugue.

-
- Prevents the display of the video border around the screen.
-
- The factory setting is for Word Fugue to enable the video border in
- the same colour as the status line. This provides a visible frame
- around the usable area of the screen. However, some "No Name" video
- cards will not work reliably when the border is enabled.
-
- If you start Word Fugue in its normal 25 line mode, and find that
- the screen displays garbage characters, try this option.
-
- This setting can be set and saved from the options menu as well. See
- the option "Use Border". When set to OFF and saved, the border
- feature will be disabled next time you start Word Fugue.

-
- The factory default is to display a large cursor € when in insert
- mode, and a small cursor _ when in overwrite mode. However, some
- people prefer the other way around.
-
- If you are one of those who want a large cursor in overwrite mode,

- If you are a Word Perfect user, we supply a Word perfect config file
- that can be used instead of the normal one. Start Word Fugue with
- the parameter WF /LWORDPERF.CFG and it will use the Word Perfect
- command set instead of the default ones.
-
- Be aware that if you use this feature, the Save Options will still
- write out a WF.CFG file into the current directory, not the file you
- have loaded. However, once you have done this, you will not need to
- use this parameter again, as the defaults will be loaded

- .tc Command Line Printing /p ....................................#
- .ix Command Line ; Command Line Printing /p
- Command Line Printing /pfilename
-
- This parameter can be used to print a file from the command line.
- This option has been introduced to conform with current windows
- "Drag and Drop" practice, where a user can drag a file name from
- file manager onto an EXE file, and windows will start that program
- to print the file. The program will be started in an iconised
- window, and will terminate when printing is finished.
-
- When started this way, Word Fugue will load the file and commence
- printing using the default printer PDF and to the default printer
- port (normally LPT1). You should be sure to set these appropriately
- and save the Setup so that this will work properly!
-
- As soon as the file finishes printing, Word Fugue will terminate.
- Please note that it is possible to Zoom the window to the
- foreground, in which case you can interact with Word Fugue while it
- is printing. However, as the program will terminate when printing
- finishes, you could be in for a shock if you try editing a document!
- (WF will save your work first, though.)

- Registering Word Fugue with Windows
-
- Before you can take advantage of Window's drag and drop printing,
- you must register Word Fugue with Windows. You do this by running
- REGEDIT.EXE. This program tells Windows how to send printing to Word
- Fugue, and also how to "drag and drop" a file onto Word Fugue for
- editing.
-
- From Program Manager, select RUN. Then select browse, and find
- REGEDIT.EXE in your windows directory. Double click on this to
- accept it, and then click on Run. After a few moments you should
- then see the screen for "Registration Info Editor".
-
- Scan through the list of registered file types to see if Word Fugue
- is present (probably not, but you never know!). If it is not there,
- then you should insert an entry for it. Click on Edit and then Add
- file type to bring up a blank File Type screen. Type in the
- following information:
-
- Identifier: WordFugueDOS (no spaces)
- File Type : Word Fugue for DOS
-
- .CP5
- Click on Open, and enter:
-
- Command : C:\WF\WF.EXE %1 (or WFE.EXE)
- Uses DDE : [ ] (no)
-
- Alternately, you can use WF.PIF in place of WF.EXE
-
-
- Click on Print, and enter
-
- Command : C:\WF\WF.EXE %1 /p (or WFE.EXE)
- Uses DDE : [ ] (no)
-
- Click on OK to accept this. You should now see "Word Fugue for DOS"
- appear in the list.
-
- If you wish to print in a minimised window (as an icon) you need to
- copy WF.PIF as WFP.PIF, and specify this in place of WF.EXE.
- Further, you need to modify this PIF (using PIFEDIT) so that the
- "Windowed" option is checked.
-
- Now you need to tell Windows what extensions should be regarded as
- Word Fugue file types. Run the windows File Manager, and highlight a
- file (any file) with the extension 2WF . From the File Manager's
- File menu select "Associate". You will see
-
- Files with the extension: 2WF
-
- Associate With :
-
- There will be a list of applications - the same list the Regedit
- displayed. Select "Word Fugue for DOS" and double click on it to set
- it into the "Associate with" field. Now click on OK to accept this
- information.
-
- Now windows knows how to print or edit files with the extension 2WF,
- and how to activate Word Fugue to print or edit documents that are
- "drag and dropped" onto it.

- This is a new entry in the Printer Definition Files to support the
- enlarged character set that some printers have.
-
- Where printers have enlarged character sets, the additional
- characters are selected normally by means of an escape sequence.
-
- It can also be used with European set ups where some of the onscreen
- characters do not print properly. In this situation the printer is
- configured so that a different character should be sent to print the
- character you see on screen.
-
- To use this feature, you need to select characters that will be
- translated into the characters you want printed. Normally you would
- select characters you do not use, although with some of the European
- characters you would select the correct one for the screen.
-
- You need to specify both the character you will enter into the
- document, and the character or characters to be sent to the printer
- to cause it to print what you want. You can specify a number of
- character translations separated by semi colons (;).
-
- For Example, the English pound sign (ú) when displayed on the
- screen is decimal 156, but many printers require decimal 134 to
- print one.
- .ix Transl ; Translating Characters for printing

-
- you enter
-
- ú=Ü
-
- Hold down the ALT key and type the decimal equivalent on the
- numeric keypad, and then release the ALT key.
-
- For example, a ú sign can be entered by using ALT 156, while the
- destination character can be entered by using ALT 134.
-
-
- When specifying destination characters, you can enter most
- characters exactly as they should appear, with the exceptions shown
- below. These characters you must enter in decimal notation:
-
- character You enter
- space #032
- ; #059
- # #035
- null #000
-
- You can enter any other destination character in the same fashion:
-
- in the above example you could enter
-
- ú=#134
-
-
- You can specify a number of character translations separated by semi
- colons (;). For example
-
- ú=#134 ; ù=#159; ·=Word#032Fugue#032V3.1#032 ; ^=#027!#134
-
- spaces are ignored following the = sign
- The example above will translate every occurrence of
- ú into decimal 134 (a printing ú)
- ù into decimal 159 (a printing ù)
- · into the sequence Word Fugue V3.1
- (note spaces entered as #032)
- ^ into the sequence Esc!Ü (a printing õ symbol)

- Micro Justification
-
- Justified text˙ is text where the˙ line is padded out˙ so that it is
- flush with both˙ the left˙ and right˙ margins. This˙ paragraph is an
- example of justified text. The˙ normal method of justification is to
- insert˙ extra˙ spaces˙ between˙ words˙ to˙ make˙ the˙ line fit. This
- sometimes˙ leads˙ to˙ a˙ situation˙ where˙ the text appears unevenly
- spaced. It˙ is also very˙ difficult to get˙ a line spaced˙ correctly
- when using a proportionally spaced font.
-
- The solution to this is for the printer to justify the text instead,
- since it knows exactly how wide each character is. The printer is
- capable of varying the spacing between each of the letters, giving a
- more even appearance. This process is known as Micro Justification.
- Not all printers support Micro Justification, and some older or
- cheaper printers can be rather slow.
- ..This paragraph has been printed using microjustification.
-
- Each Printer Defintion File contains two new entries for
- "Microjustification ON" and "Microjustification OFF". Your document
- defaults to Microjustification OFF, so if you want it you must turn
- it ON.
-
- There are 2 methods of switching Microjustification ON and OFF:
-
- 1. Use of the .MJ dot command.
-
- Place this command on the line before you want justification to
- start:
- .MJ on
-
- Place this command on the line after you want justification to
- stop:
- .MJ off
-
- 2. Use an embedded function.
-
- Place this {.@MJ} where you want microjustification to start, and
- place another one where you want it to stop. This function works
- exactly like underlining or bolding - the first one turns the
- feature ON, while the second one turns it OFF
-
- NOTE - Since the printer is doing the justification, you should
- ensure that you turn Word Fugue's justification OFF,
- otherwise you will still see additional spaces added between
- the words.
-
- NOTE - If your printer should be capable of microjustification but
- you can't seem to make it work, it may be that the PDF you
- are using has not been configured for this. In this event,
- please contact Fugue Software to obtain a new PDF file for
- your printer.

- .ix Postscript
- .ix Postsc ; Postscript Printing
- Postscript Printing
-
- Word Fugue now supports Adobe Postscript printing. Postscript is
- (almost) standard across printers that support it. At the time of
- writing there are currently 5 Printer Definition Files for
- postscript printing:
-
- postscr.pdf = a generic postscript page, with no assumptions
- about page size. It accepts the page size
- configured by the printer.
- ps_a4.pdf = postscript for A4 page size (21cmx29.7cm)
- ps_legal.pdf = postscript for legal size paper (8´"x14")
- ps_lscap.pdf = postscript for landscape orientation
- ps_usltr.pdf = postscript for US letter size (8"x11")
- ps_ansi.pdf = postscript using ANSI characters (see below)
-
-
- From the print menu (Ctrl KP), highlight "Which printer" and press
- enter. Press Enter again on the prompt to display a list of PDF
- files installed. Select the one you want, and press enter.
-
- The choice of Printer Definition File can be saved under the "Save
- Setup" option.
-
- Because of the complexity of Postscript, each PDF file is
- supplimented by a .PDV file that contains an initialisation sequence
- for the printer. The PDF slot marked "Reserved" refers to the PDV
- file to be used:
-
- "PostScript 3.0 <postscr.pdv>"
-
- We supply two .PDV files - "POSTSCR.PDV" for DOS compatible printing
- and "PS-ANSI.PDV" for windows compatible printing (see below for
- more information). However, if you require a different Postscript
- Preamble, then this can be accomodated by copying POSTSCR.PDV to a
- different name and modifying the COPY (never modify the
- original!!!). Also copy one of the PDF files, and modify the
- "Reserved" slot so that the correct PDV filename is between the
- angle brackets "<" and ">".
-
- .CP7
- For example, to include a new font Caslon_OpenFace you would need
- to:
-
- 1. Include a macro for the font in a copy of the PDV file where all
- the other font macros are:
-
- /fCOF { /hsr /Caslon_OpenFace /f40 RE findfont 10 scalefont
- setfont } bind def
-
- The strings "fCOF" and "Caslon_OpenFace" would be replaced by
- which ever font you required, with appropriate abbreviation.
- Everything else should be entered exactly as spelled, including
- case of letters. Please note that the spelling of the full font
- name "Caslon_OpenFace" must be exactly as the specifications from
- the font supplier, for the printer will use courier if it cannot
- match the font name.
-
- 2. Include a sequence in your document to activate the font where
- you want it:
-
- ESC fCOF ESC
-
- where "fCOF" is the font macro name you placed in the preamble
- file, spelled with exactly the same case, and ESC represents the
- Escape character (ctrl P ESC).
-
- Normally you would place this sequence as the ON sequence in a
- PDF file.
-
- 3. Include a sequence to turn off the font by re-activating a
- previous font:
-
- ESC ftr ESC
-
- if you wished to re-activate the Times Roman font.
-
- If you use the PDF file to store the sequence, then make sure
- that the OFF sequence is empty, in which case Word Fugue will
- reactivate all other active print options.
-
- 4. Include the PDV file name in the "Reserved" slot of the PDF
-
- NOTE: - if you know nothing about postscript programming, the best
- advice is not to fiddle with it. Printing anything under postscript
- requires writing a program. Refer to Adobe Systems or a good
- technical book shop for more information on the Postscript
- programming language.

- .tc Postscript Character Set ....................................#
- .ix Postscript Character Set
- .ix Postsc ; Postscript Printing
- Postscript Character Set
-
- The character set used by Postscript is ANSI (American National
- Standards Institute) similar to Windows rather than the ASCII ()
- code used by DOS machines. This can mean quite a lot of differences
- if you switch between a Postscript printer and a non Postscript
- printer, especially if you use characters with codes above 128
- (mostly European characters and IBM graphics characters).
-
- Postscript does support the European character codes, but they occur
- in a different sequence from standard DOS characters. In addition
- postscript does not support the IBM graphics characters for the
- simple reason that if you require lines then postscript can draw
- them directly.
-
- As mentioned above, we supply 2 PDV files, one to support standard
- ANSI characters, and the other to support ASCII characters (as far
- as is possible).
-
- PS-ANSI.PDV supports the same range of characters as Windows does.
- If you swap files between DOS and Windows, then you should use this
- driver. Please bear in mind that what you see on the screen under
- DOS will be the ASCII equivalent characters, not the ANSI ones.
-
- POSTSCR.PDV is our standard driver for DOS. If you do most of your
- work in DOS, then this is the driver you should use. As far as is
- possible, it supports the ASCII characters. Where there are no ASCII
- equivalents, we have retained the original ANSI codes, although
- sometimes thay have been remapped to a different sequence than for
- ANSI. The 3 tables on the following pages illustrate the different
- character sets.

- .ix Writing; Writing Style Guide
-
- Writing a good letter or report may take a little more time than writing
- a bad one. But if you weigh up everything, you will find that the bad
- letter costs a lot more in the long run - the point doesn't get across,
- or it creates a bad impression.
-
- Some points for better writing include:
-
- ˛ Always be simple and direct
- ˛ Avoid wordiness
- ˛ Clarity of expression
- ˛ Use good grammar, and good punctuation
- ˛ Be businesslike
- ˛ Do not digress
- ˛ Avoid jargon and cliches
- ˛ Write positively, rather than negatively
- ˛ Keep sentences below 20 words in length
- ˛ Write your opening sentence last
- ˛ Write in the active voice
- ˛ Before you start writing, know why you are writing
- ˛ Never write an unpleasant letter on company stationery,
- and always re-read it the next day (or have someone else read it)
- ˛ Build up a library of letters that you can draw on when you need t
- write something similar. This collection is a good starting point.
- ˛ Rough out a structure of what you want to say, then write expansions
- on each point
-
-
- .tc Letters & Memos .............................................#
- .ix Letters & Memos
- Letters & Memos
-
- ˛ Business letters should always have a letter head & logo. This is good
- sense even with personal letters - have your own address at the top of
- the letter. Always include your telephone number, fax if you have one,
- and any other contact addresses (such as a compuserve id)
- ˛ Always date your correspondence
- The format of the date is generally a matter of personal preference,
- but modern usage leaves out suffixes "th", "nd" etc
- August 15, 1992 or 15 August 1992
-
- Opinions differ on whether the date should be on the right or the left
- of the letter - choose a style, and stick to it.
-
- ˛ Salutation should match the close, so "Dear Sir/Madam" would go with
- "yours faithfully", while "Dear Mr. Nurk" would match with "Yours
- sincerely"
-
- However, modern usage is to avoid terms such as "dear" and start with
- the person's name.
-
- The use of Mr. is slowly disappearing, especially in less formal
- correspondence. This is mainly due to the confusion of how to address
- women - when do you use Ms., Miss or Mrs. ? Some women take offence at
- one, and some at another.
-
- .CP5
- So some writers now use a sexually neutral "M." such as "M. Smith",
- others include the first name "M. Susan Smith" or "M. John Smith",
- while other writers leave out the title altogether and write to
- "Susan Smith" or "John Smith". Certainly in this day and age you
- should refer to females in the same manner as males - if you write
- Mr. Smith then you must also write Ms (or Miss or Mrs.) Smith, if
- you write John Smith then you should also write Susan Smith.
-
- ˛ Use Plurals when writing about other people - it avoids the use of
- male and female pronouns
-
- ˛ Do not try to show off your command of the language by using many big
- words - it will generally put your readers off, and sound snobbish
-
- ˛ In general, you sign letters with your name, and also print it
- underneath your signature (saves people the trouble of decyphering
- your signature). In business correspondence, include your title. If
- you are low down in the pecking order, you may find that your boss
- signs, and then his/her name goes on the letter instead of yours.
-
- ˛ Modern usage is a block style format with no indenting. Research has
- indicated that most people find it easier to read than the older
- indented style.

- Letters in Connection With Employment
-
- There is a strong public relations element in all letters on this
- subject.
-
- For example, someone writes about possible job vacancies. You have
- none, but they are obviously well qualified, and you would like to
- consider them in the future. You have to say no while retaining their
- goodwill.
-
- Again - if you are writing a reference for a departing employee - why
- be candid? You may think they were inept, ill-mannered and lazy, but
- is it libellous to put that in print? There is also the ethical
- problem of giving such a person a good reference.
-
- But a good manager will read between the lines. If the reference is so
- glowing that it appears as if you believe the sun, moon and stars
- shine out of the former employee's rear-end, then a prospective
- employer will determine that you were in fact trying to get rid on
- this person.
-
- Equally, letters about employment are often revealing in what they
- don't say. If you receive a reference that is little more than a
- statement of employment, then it tells you that there is little good
- that can be written about the person. You should probably telephone
- the former employer before making any commitment.
-
- In general, the shorter the reference, the less interest that was
- shown by management in the employee. Letters, like every aspect of
- business, are as important as the time you put into them.

-
- The classic phase is 2 reminder letters, and then the threat of legal
- action ("The Final Demand"). The trend with government departments is
- to skip the reminder notices, and go straight to the Final Demand, but
- they do not need to worry about your goodwill. You as a business
- person should worry about the other party's good will, if you want
- continuing business.

- So the first letter should be a gentle reminder. But, never even hint
- that you can wait for the money - they owe it, and they have to pay. A
- phone call often does the trick - especially if you phone the manager,
- who may not have been aware of the non payment. Also, never allow
- yourself to feel compassionate about the debt. If they knew they
- couldn't pay, they never should have ordered. Their non payment could
- cause your bankruptcy!
-
- With the recession, people are taking longer to pay, trusting that you
- really won't take them to court. One trick to encougage prompt payment
- is to offer a small discount (eg 5% for payment within 7 days, 2´% for
- payment within 14 days - you can of course mark your goods up by that
- amount to allow for the discount). You may lose a little, but if they
- pay within 14 days you are going to be a lot happier.

- Direct Selling Letters
-
- These are letters that are sent out to "cold contacts" in order to
- generate sales. Often the list of names comes from a mailing list bought
- from a broker or mailing house. They can also come from your own
- database of customers.
-
- The Direct Selling letter must convince the recipient to read it, so it
- needs a good attention grabbing headline. Different people will give you
- different rules about how to create a good selling letter, but these
- rules can only summarise what has worked in the past.
-
- As a rule, you should conduct test mailings with parts of the list to
- determine how good the list is, and how good your letter is. You might
- send variations on the wording to different groups, and track the
- response rate.
-
- Attention grabbing rules include using the word FREE in the headline
- (such as offering a FREE GIFT). Another good word is NEW. (eg NEW
- VERSION or NEW PRODUCT).
-
- Successful body copy uses the word "you" a lot, and hardly ever uses the
- word "I" or "we". The letter should be bright and breezy, and should
- never be more than 2 sides of a page long. The 5 selling steps sales
- people are told about are:
-
- ˛ Attention
- ˛ Interest
- ˛ Desire
- ˛ Conviction
- ˛ Action
-
- and your direct selling letter should do likewise.
-
- .CP5
- Letter format is far more successful than brochure format, although
- brochures can accompany letters. Brochures just don't stand up well on
- their own.
-
- When you have finished your letter, you should add a PS - its a great
- way to reinforce your first paragraph, which should be the strongest
- point.
-
- The envelope is also important - it must convince the recipient to open
- and read the letter. Sometimes it helps to put a teaser copy on the
- envelope itself. Coloured envelopes can help. (Note - an envelope that
- looks like a Bill will undoubtedly be opened, but not enthusiastically.
- The recipient will probably bin the contents as soon as they establish
- there is no bill to pay).

- These are written in response to an enquiry - perhaps by telephone. They
- should be more constrained than a direct selling letter - you know the
- recipient will read it - they asked for the information. They might feel
- insulted to receive a letter with a screaming headline including FREE!
- or similar.
-
- They should be more informal than a normal business letter. You can
- scrap the "Dear Mr. Smith" and replace it with more conversational
- phrases such as "Good morning Bill ... Here's your info ...". If you are
- trying to present a laid back Australian image you could even lapse into
- idiom such as "G'day Bruce ...". There are no hard and fast rules, but

-
- ˛ Always have a title page that states the title of the report, the
- names of those who wrote it (sometimes with a team effort, only the

- is subsequently revised, the date will change. That way readers can
- know which is the later version. Some businesses use a version number
- as well.
-
- ˛ The footer of the report should always include the page number, the
- name of the document, and the date of last revision (or version
- number). That makes it easy to know whether you have the latest
- version, and people can request additional printed copies.
-
- ˛ If the report is more than a few pages long, it pays to have a table
- of contents.
-
- ˛ If the report is long, it pays to have an index at the back. This is
- fairly easy with a word processor. Indexes are normally printed in 2
- columns, using snaking or newspaper style.
-
- ˛ Long reports should be broken into chapters, like a book, with a

- Protected Mode Version (386/486)
-
- This is a separate version designed to take advantage of extra
- features on 386 or better machines. It ships with the registered
- version. The installation process will ask you if you want to install
- it.
-
- Standard Word Fugue (WF) is what is known as a Real Mode program - it
- will run on any machine from an XT with an 8088 chip up to a 486 or
- pentium based chip. However, the program cannot take advantage of any
- features of specific to the more advanced designs such as more memory.
-
- Your files are restricted to available conventional memory, minus that
- occupied be the program and DOS. Depending on your setup, you may have
- between 250k and 300k available as work space for documents.
-
- Enhanced Word Fugue (WFE) is what is known as a Protected Mode program
- - it will only run on a 386 or better, but it can use all of available
- memory on these machines. Thus you can easily have between 2Meg and
- 4Meg available as work space for documents.
-
- The program uses the same config file (WF.CFG), help file (WF.HLP) and
- macro files as standard Word Fugue. To use it, you type in WFE instead
- of WF.

- Word Fugue Enhanced follows the DPMI V0.9 standard for using protected

- automatically if it doesn't find an existing DPMI memory manager. When
- you terminate the program the driver files will be unloaded again.
-
- The driver files are:
- RTM.EXE
- RTMRES.EXE
- DPMI16BI.OVL
- DPMIINST.EXE
- DPMILOAD.EXE
- and they are supplied courtesy of Borland International under the

- .ix described
- .ix DPMI
- What is Protected Mode?
-
- "Protected Mode" and "DPMI" are terms that may be unfamiliar to many
- users, so some introductory information is in order.
-
- .ix Conventio; Conventional Memory
- .ix Real Mode; Real Mode
- The Intel 80286 and later processor chips, on which your computer is
- based, have multiple modes of operation. When you start your
- computer, the processor initializes itself in "Real" mode, so called
- because a memory address reference passed to the processor actually
- does point to that physical location in memory. This is the mode
- DOS was written for, and it is fully compatible with the older 8088
- processor chips used in the original PC and XT systems. However,
- Real mode is limited to addressing at most 1 megabyte of memory,
- with only 640K available to programs you run (the rest is used by
- the system for things like video display memory.) DOS itself takes
- up about 70k of that 640k. No matter how hard you try, you cannot
- get past that 1Mb limit using the standard hardware and software
- design of DOS itself. You can sneak around it by using Expanded
- memory (EMS), but that has fairly severe limitations compared to
- being able to just tell the processor to access memory above 1Mb.
-
- The 286 and later processors offer an answer: Protected mode. By
- switching the processor chip into protected mode it can address much
- more memory directly (up to 16Mb of RAM directly on a 286 and much
- more on 386 and later processors). Protected mode also allows
- multiple programs to be run at once, with each program's memory
- protected from the other programs - one program crashing should not
- bring down all of the others or the system itself (hence the name
- "Protected Mode"). However, Protected mode requires a somewhat
- different memory addressing scheme, and this addressing scheme is
- incompatible with DOS.
-
- .ix Dos Exten; DOS Extender
- For this reason the DOS Protected Mode Interface (DPMI)
- specification was defined by Intel and other manufacturers and
- vendors. It sets a standard by which protected mode programs can be
- run under DOS with the help of a "DPMI Server". The DPMI Server
- (often known as a "DOS Extender") is a software module that acts as
- a gatekeeper between the protected mode program and DOS itself:
- catching requests from the program for system services, translating
- them into real-mode requests, switching the processor to Real mode
- temporarily and allowing the translated system service to be
- performed, then switching back to protected mode and and handing
- back to the program in protected mode form any information returned
- by the system. Because DOS is a single-task operating system, the
- "multiple tasks" facilities of protected mode are lost, but the
- ability to access huge amounts of memory is still there; other
- environments such as OS/2 provide multi-tasking along with the huge
- memory access.
-
- Of the DPMI driver files there are two are critical ones: RTM.EXE
- (the Run-Time Manager) and DPMI16BI.OVL (the DPMI Server module,
- used when another DPMI Server such as Windows or OS/2 is not
- running.) These two modules MUST be located in the directory where
- the WFE.EXE program is located, or on the DOS path. The other
- modules are installation or accessory modules and are discussed
- later in this documentation. The DPMI16BI.OVL module is the actual
- DPMI server, and is not needed if another DPMI server is already in
- use (see the System Settings: DOS Special Considerations section
- below.)
- .ix QEMM; QEMM
- .ix Borl; Borland DPMI Server
- .ix 386M; 386MAX
- .ix Run-Time Manager
-
- Unfortuneately the DPMI spec is open to interpretation - the spec
- defines what services a DPMI server must provide to its client
- programs, but makes little mention of how. As a result, there are
- small differences and inconsistencies between the DPMI servers of
- different vendors, not to mention outright bugs, and the specific
- system services that are translated by the server vary somewhat from
- DPMI server to DPMI server. (For example, there are three services
- that are part of the Mouse driver interface which are translated by
- all common DPMI servers except the server built into MS Windows...
- and Microsoft wrote the Mouse driver spec!) To make matters worse,
- there is currently no published list of what server translates which
- calls. WFE has been extensively tested under the 4 common DPMI
- servers available at the time of release (the DPMI16BI server
- provided with the program, QEMM 7.02, 386Max 6.0x, MS Windows 3.1)
- and you should have no problems with these servers. However, other
- servers or new servers may not work 100%.

- .ix Special Drivers for
- System Settings: The DPMIINST Program
-
- With the exceptions outlined below, the DOS DPMI protected-mode
- technology is completely transparent and no extra steps are
- necessary in order to run a protected-mode application. One such
- exception might be when you run a protected-mode program for the
- very first time on a 286-based system. The protected mode
- technology uses an internal database which contains various machine
- characteristics to determine how to enable protected mode operation
- on your system, and configures itself accordingly. If you have a
- computer with an older 80286 microprocessor, your system might not
- be recognized; if it is not, you'll see this message when you try to
- run WFE:
-
- Machine not in database (RUN DPMIINST)
- .ix Machine not in database
- .ix Machine; Machine not in Database (error)
-
- .CP7
- If you get this message, simply run the provided DPMIINST program by
- typing DPMIINST at the DOS prompt and following the program's
- instructions. DPMIINST runs your machine through a series of tests
- to determine the best way of enabling protected mode, and
- automatically configures accordingly. Once you have run DPMIINST,
- you won't have to run it again. Note that some memory managers,
- device drivers, and memory-resident (TSR) programs can interfere
- with DPMIINST's ability to analyze your system. If DPMIINST fails,
- try temporarily disabling or removing these programs. That gives
- DPMIINST the unrestricted access it needs to determine the best way
- to enter protected mode.
-
- Note that running DPMIINST.EXE will never be required on any system
- running HIMEM.SYS (or equivalent), or on any system based on an
- 80386 (or later) processor.

- .ix Special Drivers for
- .ix QEMM; QEMM
- .ix Borl; Borland DPMI Server
- .ix 386M; 386MAX
- Controlling the Amount of Memory Used by WFE
-
- By default, the DPMI interface allocates all available extended
- memory for its own use. If you don't want all of the available
- memory to be taken by the DPMI kernel, you can set a DOS environment
- variable to specify the maximum amount of memory to use. This
- variable can be entered directly at the DOS prompt or inserted in
- your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, using this syntax:
-
- SET DPMIMEM=MAXMEM nnnn
-
- where nnnn is the amount of memory in kilobytes.
-
- For example, if you have a system with 4MB and want the DPMI kernel
- to use only 2MB of it, leaving the other 2MB alone, the DPMIMEM
- variable would be set as follows:
-
- SET DPMIMEM=MAXMEM 2048
-
- Some memory managers, like QEMM or 386Max, allow allocating the same
- area of memory as either extended or expanded, and many older
- applications can use only expanded memory (EMS). By using the
- DPMIMEM DOS environment variable to limit the amount of extended
- memory used by the DPMI server, your system will still have expanded
- memory available for use by older applications.
-
- The run-time manager attempts to free as much conventional memory as
- possible (by moving moveable memory blocks into extended memory, for
- example) before starting an application. No attempt is made to
- release extended memory, however. Therefore, if you are going to run
- other protected-mode applications that don't use the run-time
- manager (Paradox 4.0, for example), use the RTM DOS environment
- variable to control the run-time manager's allocation of memory.
-
- Use the DOS command line to add the RTM environment variable to your
- system's DOS environment. Here is the syntax:
-
- SET RTM=[option nnnn]
-
- The following table lists the options you can use. nnnn can be a
- decimal number or a hex number in the form of xAB54 or xab54.

- .ix Memory Options
- .ix Special Drivers for

- Option Description
- EXTLEAVE nnnn Always leave at least nnnn kilobytes of extended
- memory available. The default value is 640K.
-
- EXTMAX nnnn Don't allocate more than nnnn kilobytes of
- extended memory. The default value is 4 gigabytes. In Windows,
- the default value is one-half the available memory.
-
- EXTMIN nnnn If fewer than nnnn kilobytes are available after
- applying EXTMAX and EXTLEAVE limits, terminate with an Out of
- Memory message. The default value is zero.
-
- REALLEAVE nnnn Always leave at least nnnn paragraphs of real
- memory available. The default value is 64K or 4096 paragraphs.
-
- REALMAX nnnn Don't allocate more than nnnn paragraphs of real
- memory. The default value is 1 megabyte or 65,535 paragraphs.
-
- REALMIN nnnn If fewer than nnnn paragraphs are available after
- applying REALMAX and REALLEAVE, terminate with an Out of Memory
- message. The default value is zero.
-
- The following DOS command limits RTM to 2M bytes of extended memory,
- and ensures that 128K bytes of real memory are left unallocated:

- SET RTM=EXTMAX 2048 REALLEAVE 8192

- Important Note for Borland C++ and Paradox 4.0 Users
-
- The DPMILOAD.EXE and DPMI16BI.OVL files provided in this package
- replace the older ones that came with Paradox 4.0 and BC++ 3.0 or
- later. Delete or rename the older versions and make sure the newer
- ones are on your DOS path (both Paradox and BC will search the path
- and find the newer versions). **THIS INCLUDES THESE FILES AS
- SHIPPED WITH PARADOX 4.01!** The versions shipped with Paradox 4.01
- are actually the earlier 4.00 versions of these files, and should be
- replaced.
-
- If you plan to shell out from Paradox or BC++ to run another
- protected-mode application, first limit the amount of extended
- memory used by Paradox or BC++. For Paradox, use its /extk
- command-line parameter; for BC++, use its /x command-line parameter.
- Refer to the Paradox or BC++ documentation for more information on
- the use of command-line options.

- .tc System Settings: DOS: Special Considerations .............#
- System Settings: DOS: Special Considerations
-
- As mentioned previously, a good memory manager such as QEMM or
- 386Max is strongly recommended. The XMS manager HIMEM.SYS that is
- provided with DOS and Windows will work but is substantially slower
- than these other third-party memory managers. Also, these other
- memory managers do a better job of parcelling out upper memory
- between WFE and EMS users (such as disk caches and TSRs) that may be
- installed on your system.
-
- .CP5
- .ix DOS 6 MemMaker
- Another reason to use a good third-party memory manager is when DOS
- 6 is in use and you have used the DOS 6 "MemMaker" utility to
- optimize memory. The HIMEM.SYS XMS manager delivered with DOS 6 has
- a bug that only shows up when MemMaker has been used, such that the
- various "LH" (load high) commands in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file have
- specific sizing parameters. When this is the case, you may see the
- following error when running WFE the first time:
-
- Loader Error (0000): Unrecognized error
-
- .ix Loader Error
- .ix Special Drivers for
- If you see this error, you will need to juggle the various "LH"
- commands in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, or replace HIMEM.SYS/EMM386.SYS
- with one of the third-party managers. If you are unfamiliar with
- modifying your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, see your DOS Manual.
-
- While these other memory managers provide DPMI servers of their own,
- keep in mind the discussion above concerning variations in DPMI
- servers if you are using a third-party server such as 386Max or
- QEMM. While WFE has been tested with these other servers, it was
- designed with the DPMI16BI server included with the program (along
- with the servers built into Windows and OS/2), so it is certainly
- possible that some incompatibilities exist. For example, the 1.0x
- versions of QDPMI are known to have a bug when a protected mode
- program attempts to perform serial I/O (eg to a printer attached to
- a COM port), and 386Max versions 6.02 and prior have several bugs.
- If you experience any problems such as RunTime Error 216 (GPF) or
- intermittent serial I/O, be sure to try to duplicate the problem
- using the provided driver before seeking technical support (the is
- the first question we will ask when such problems are reported and
- will not be able to help until such a verification test has been
- performed.)
-
- DOS version 3.3 or later is required for WFE with DOS 5.0 or later
- strongly recommended. DOS 4.0x is strongly discouraged, as it has
- several known bugs.
-
- .ix DR-DOS
- If you are running DR-DOS rather than MS-DOS, and experience
- problems, be sure to test under MS-DOS before contacting us for tech
- support. The protected mode manager was designed around MS-DOS, and
- because of the many small incompatibilities in DR-DOS it cannot be
- guaranteed that any protected mode program will work properly under
- DR-DOS.
-
- .ix Running on a Network
- If running WFE on a network, be sure to follow the network vendor's
- guidelines concerning installation of the SHARE module (e.g., for
- LANtastic, SHARE usually should be loaded on servers but not on
- workstations.) If running under Novell Netware 3.11, NETX version
- 3.26a or later is recommended (this is the version of the Netware
- shell shipped with Windows 3.1.)
-
-
- .tc CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT Additions/Changes ................#
- CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT Additions/Changes
-
- CONFIG.SYS: Certain system configurations that use MS-DOS v. 6 with
- both HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.EXE may not work with all protected mode
- programs. On these systems, when you attempt to run WFE you will
- see the following error message: "Loader error (0000): unrecognized
- error". Using a proper memory manager such as QEMM or 386Max will
- eliminate this problem. (Generally, this error will be seen only
- when you have used the DOS "MEMMAKER" utility to load certain device
- drivers or TSRs into upper memory with specific memory sizing
- parameters.)
-
- The QDPMI version 1.01 and earlier, and 386Max 6.02 and earlier,
- built-in DPMI server facilities are not recommended. You should
- disable these internal DPMI servers and use the DPMI16BI server
- provided with the program. Alternately, both of these managers have
- command-line utilities that allow the internal servers to be turned
- off or on from the DOS prompt - you may wish to create a batch file
- to execute WFE that temporarily turns off these servers before
- running the program and then turns them back on afterwards. Later
- versions of these DPMI servers *may* work properly with WFE.
-
- A "Files=20" (or greater) statement is required.
-
- AUTOEXEC.BAT: None required for DOS only (see the Windows section
- below if you use WFE under Windows.)
-
- By default, the DPMI interface allocates all available extended
- memory for its own use. If you don't want all of the available
- memory to be taken by the DPMI kernel, you can set a DOS environment
- variable to specify the maximum amount of memory to use. This
- variable can be entered directly at the DOS prompt or inserted in
- your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, using this syntax:
-
- SET DPMIMEM=MAXMEM nnnn
-
- where nnnn is the amount of memory in kilobytes. For example, if
- you have a system with 4MB and want the DPMI kernel to use only 2MB
- of it, leaving the other 2MB alone, the DPMIMEM variable would be
- set as follows:
-
- SET DPMIMEM=MAXMEM 2048
-
- .CP5
- Some memory managers, like QEMM or 386Max, allow allocating the same
- area of memory as either extended or expanded, and many older
- applications can use only expanded memory (EMS). By using the
- DPMIMEM DOS environment variable to limit the amount of extended
- memory used by the DPMI server, your system will still have expanded
- memory available for use by older applications.
-
-
- .tc Windows: Special Considerations, General .................#
- Windows: Special Considerations, General
-
- Windows provides its own DPMI server, and other DPMI servers such as
- 386Max and QDPMI "get out of the way" when Windows loads; whenever
- Word Fugue is running under Windows it uses the DPMI services
- provided by the Windows server.
-
- A DOS protected-mode program will run in Windows in 386 Enhanced
- mode. To configure the amount of memory available to the
- application, create a Windows PIF file. To learn more about PIF
- files, see your Microsoft Windows User's Guide.
-
- .CP7
- You should define a PIF file for WFE. An example PIF file (WFE.PIF)
- is included in the distribution set and installed in the main
- program directory; you can use this PIF as a starting point, but
- note that some settings (most likely the "Max XMS" setting) will
- need to be edited to suit your system's configuration.
-
- If you run WFE from the DOS prompt under Windows, you may wish to
- edit the DOSPRMPT.PIF file provided with Windows to allow WFE access
- to at least 2Mb of XMS memory.
-
- In order to run a protected-mode program from Windows Standard mode,
- you must set the DPMIMEM DOS environment variable and run RTMRES
- before running Windows. (RTMRES is the "resident loader" module
- included with WFE.) The easiest way to do this is to run Windows
- from the RTMRES command line, like so:
-
- RTMRES C:\WINDOWS\WIN.COM /S
-
- which loads RTM into memory and then runs Windows. Done this way,
- RTM will automatically unload itself when you exit Windows. Make
- sure your DPMIMEM setting leaves enough physical memory for Windows
- to operate.
-
- Note that if you run RTMRES by itself, RTM is loaded resident and
- you are returned to the DOS prompt. If you do so, you won't be able
- to run Windows in 386 enhanced mode until you exit the RTMRES shell
- (by typing "EXIT" at a DOS prompt.)
-
-
- .tc Windows: Special Considerations, Windows 3.0 .............#
- Windows: Special Considerations, Windows 3.0
-
- Win3.0 has a bug in its program execution code when starting a
- protected-mode program from the File|Run command of Program Manager.
- As a result, you may find that you cannot run WFE this way from
- Windows V3.0. Windows 3.1 does not have this bug, and WFE should run
- normally.
