- ≈∏≈∏≈∏≈∏≈∏ Welcome to Create a Text DA ≈∏≈∏≈∏≈∏≈∏
-
- You can use this application to create a Desk Accessory to
- display any TEXT file you choose. The file may be created
- using Edit ..or MacWrite, Word, or Excel (saved as TEXT)..
- or the DA RedWriter. For example.. you can create a DA of:
-
- 1. Names and Addresses for Word or MacWrite.
- 2. A Reference DA for use in Excel.
- 3. Source Code frequently used in Programming.
- 4. A DA of Hypercard Scripts to Copy and Paste.
-
- As an example, open the DA.. Excel Functions near the top
- of the Apple Menu.
-
- You can Copy text from the DA but you cannot Paste to it.
-
- The content size of the DA Window will be the same as the
- one selected for this window.. The text will NOT "wrap around"
- so you should enlarge the width of the window to accomodate
- the longest line in your selected TEXT file.
-
- You can select 2 Fonts.... Monaco 9 or Geneva 12.....using the
- "Toggle Fonts" option in the File Menu. Some of you may prefer
- the larger font for files with short lines...or to avoid eye strain!
-
- You will not be able to create your DA until you have selected
- a TEXT File to use from the File Menu. If the file is very large,
- you will only be able to use the first 32K (32768 Characters) of
- its data.
-
- If you have any comments or suggestions drop me a line either
