- hard disk space and more memory than you can possibly imagine.
-
-
- *** SPECIAL BONUS FOR REGISTERED USERS ***
-
- Registered users receive our new "Dialog Editor" which allows them to
- graphically construct dialog boxes, (a lot like the Visual Basic dialog
- editor), and other utilities to help make programming WinEdit macro
- scripts just a tad easier and faster.
-
-
- *** PREMIER SUPPORT NOW AVAILABLE ***
-
- A fee based extended support system is now available to assist
- corporate software engineering projects which require high technology
- assistance, custom Windows programming, or custom interfaces to suites
- of Windows applications. See the README2.TXT file for more information.
-
-
- *** LATE-BREAKING NEWS ***
-
- WinEdit 3.0 now includes the following new features:
-
- Syntax coloring of source code files.
- Fully configurable syntax coloring highlights keywords, quotes,
- and comments in C, C++, WIL, Basic, dBase, and DOS and NT batch
- files.
-
- Easy to use key reassignments.
- You can now reassign command hotkeys from an interactive dialog
- in WinEdit. Menus are automatically updated to reflect the new
- hotkeys. You can also define more than one hotkey for a command,
- such as <Ctrl+Y> and <keypad -> to delete a line.
-
- Improved compiler support
- Choosing a compiler from the Project dialog's dropdown combo box
- automatically configures WinEdit's error parsing logic for that
- compiler. Supports Microsoft, Zortech, Watcom, Borland C++, Turbo
- Pascal, Borland TASM, and Clipper. User-configurable for any other
- compiler.
-
- Improved macro recording
- In the Pro version, the Macro Recorder now records all commands as
- WIL scripts. When recording is concluded, the recorded script is
- loaded into a document window for easy editing. Pre-configured
- to automatically add the newly recorded script to the Macro Menu,
- or fine tune your macro with any of over 400 WIL and WinEdit macro
- functions.
-
- Other new features:
- Backup file creation, location, and name are configurable.
- Changed (unsaved) files indicated on screen.
- Improved support for read only files.
- Improved network support.
- Captured compiler output file location configurable.
- Regular expressions in search can be disabled.
-
-
- We have also corrected dozens of minor bugs that have been reported in
- earlier versions of WinEdit.
-
- WinEdit 3.0 is a major update from previous versions. Registered users of
- previous versions of WinEdit will receive information on our low-cost
- upgrade offer soon.
-
-
-
- PACKING LIST:
-
- Most files will end in a _ (underscore). Some of them have been
- compressed and will be expanded by the setup program, whileas the
- others are simply renamed. In any case, the setup program
- (WSETUP.EXE) should take care of moving the files around.
-
- In several places we use xx, vvv, or ccc in the file names. These
- are codes for version stamps and cpu's supported. The codes are:
-
- xx - WIL DLL external version stamp - alphabetic characters
- vvv - Current product revision/compatibility level
- ccc - CPU/OS supported, as follows
- 16I = Standard 16 bit Windows (3.1)
- 32I = Windows NT on Intel X86 Cpu's
- 32D = Windows NT on Dec Alpha Cpu's
- 32M = Windows NT on MIPS Cpu's

- *#* Note: for ZIP FILE / EVALUATION VERSIONS ONLY
-
- This Wilson WindowWare shareware product is distributed in two separate ZIP
- archives, one containing the program files and the other containing the
- macro language documentation. Since you are reading this text file, you
- have presumably already obtained the program archive. The documentation
- archive is named:
-
- WILREF11.ZIP
-
- It contains the file WILDOC.MAN, which is the text version of the WIL
- Reference Manual (registered users of Command Post, File Commander,
- WinBatch, and WinEdit Pro receive a printed copy of this manual).
- It also contains a help file, WIL.HLP, which is an on-line version of the
- reference manual. You will need this documentation if you wish to create
- your own batch/menu files, or to customize the sample files provided.
-
- If you are not interested in writing your own utility menu items, then
- you do not need the WILREF documentation. It is useful if you wish to
- customize the utility menu in WinEdit 32.
-
- If you have not already received the documentation archive, you may be
- able to obtain a copy from the same source (BBS, online service, vendor,
- user group, friend, etc.) where you obtained this program. Or, if you
- wish, you can download a copy from the Wilson WindowWare bulletin board:
-
- BBS
- (206) 935-5198 - USR HST/V.32bis 14,400 8N1
- File Area 1 Filename WILREF11.ZIP
-
- NOTE: Service for modems 2400 baud and slower may be discontinued
- due to the enormous size of the files involved.
- Please use a 9600 or faster modem.
-
- If you have access to CompuServe, you can also download the documentation
- archive from Library 15 of the WINAPA forum (the file name is WILREF.ZIP).
