README for TYPESET.WCM
TYPESET is a WordPerfect for Windows macro that replaces ASCII
single-quotes, double-quotes, apostrophes, and dashes with the
proper characters, as they usually appear in typeset material.
This is desirable because the ASCII character provides only
typewriter-style straight-up-and-down quotation marks (rather
than the paired marks used by typesetters), uses the same
character for the apostrophe and the aigue accent, and does not
provide a dash distinct from the hyphen. WP provides all these
characters in it sextended character sets. This macro lets you
type your document conveniently with the ASCII marks, and then
convert them to the better-looking typsetter-style marks before
printing.
Use WPWin to view the macro itself (just open it as a
WordPerfect document) for details on exactly what characters
are replaced: in this plain text file, the WP characters from
the WP extended character sets cannot be shown.
To install this macro, just put it in your WPWin macros
directory. To try it out, just do Macro/Play and pick it by
name from the file list. For easy use, put it on your Button
Bar, or add it to your Macros menu, or both.
This macro is released to the public domain; no rights reserved.
