HyperText Markup Language Editor v1.1.1
* Project Strategy
HTML.edit is an editor for the HyperText Markup Language,
the text-based coding used for documents on World Wide Web
(WWW). All HTML-coded documents created by HTML.edit are
saved external to the editor as ASCII text files. World Wide
Web servers follow HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and
deliver on demand HTML documents to remote clients using
browser programs like NCSA Mosaic.
HTML.edit is a standalone HyperCard 2.2 application and does
not require HyperCard to run. It includes a lot of useful
features such as a B&W or color palette with pop-up menus
(senses your screen depth), multiple documents, master
headers and footers, drag-and-drop editing (with HTML.edit
already open), hypertext-style help, resizeable editor
window, command-key equivalents for commonly-used codes,
option-return for <P>, and HTML code indexing - displays all
instances of the selected HTML code within your document.
It follows the HTML specification for naming conventions and
implements most HTML codes, including lists, images, anchors
and text formats.
* Installing HTML.edit 1.1.1
HTML.edit uses the Futura font in sizes 10 and 12 point. A
font suitcase containing these is included with the
HTML.edit distribution. System 6 users should use the
Font/DA Mover to install the fonts; System 7 users should
drop the suitcase onto their System Folder. HTML.edit will
operate without the Futura font, but will contain cosmetic
defects that make it difficult to read some text. If you
already have 10 and 12 point Futura installed, do not
install the font suitcase.
The editor will operate with as little as 1050K memory, but
will not be able to zoom to a larger screen size. I'd
recommend giving the application 1300K of RAM, as then
you'll be able to enlarge the window to its full 640 by 640
pixel size, and hopefully eliminate any memory-related
problems. If 1300K of RAM seems a lot, remember how much you
normally allocate to HyperCard.
* New Features
Most of the new features are covered under specific topics.
More generally:
This editor is a standalone application and does not require
HyperCard to run. It's larger than a stack, as it includes
the HyperCard engine. The advantage is that HyperCard 2.2 is
not required to use it.
This version sports an Index card, with functions for saving
and deleting multiple documents.
With version 1.1.1, a number of new conversion commands and
a Replace command (including global replaces) have been
added.
There are new Undo HTML and Remove HTML commands.
Improvements to the Images and Create HyperText Link command
dialogs. A URL PopUp Menu has been added, to simplify
entering URLs (Uniform Resource Locators, the Internet
"address") into your documents. Now allows the URL list on
the Preferences card to also be used in this capacity.
The Editor Window is now sizeable up to 640 by 640 pixels.
Option-drag on the document (not window) zoom box to display
a popUp menu of standard window sizes, or use the Scroll
Window.
Each document is divided into a Header, Body, and Footer
section. This is designed to help you create a more
standardized interface for your projects, and also allows
for documents larger than 30K characters. See Document
Structure for more information.
