CopyPad
Version 2.0 - by Antonino Iannella, February 24th, 1997
Instructions
CopyPad copies the character selected by the user to the clipboard. All the
characters presented are from OS/2's ASCII set. It is meant for people who use
such characters on a regular basis, like European symbols, since they can't be
typed in without knowing the ASCII value.
To copy a character to the clipboard, find the section where it resides. The
section's characters will appear in the grid below. Double-click on the
character. It will appear in the titlebar. It is now copied to the clipboard.
The current active character will also appear in the OS/2 window list. Some
more descriptions follow.
Hide automatically
Automatically hides the window after any character is chosen. By
default, this property is on, which explains why CopyPad keeps
vanishing before you.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Installing CopyPad ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
To run CopyPad, you should have
OS/2 Warp 3.0 or above,
the REXX component installed, and
the View.exe INF file viewer.
To install CopyPad move the following files to a target directory of your
choice, like \OS2\APPS. They must all reside in the same directory.
CopyPad.exe
CopyPad.dll
CopyPad.ico
CopyPad.inf
CPins.cmd
Add this directory to the HELP path in your CONFIG.SYS. It will only become
active once you restart OS/2. By running CPins.cmd, you may create a desktop
object for CopyPad.
To uninstall CopyPad, delete the above files from their directory, and remove
the desktop object.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Registration ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
CopyPad is provided as a fully-functional product, with no limitations.
However, it is shareware. If you regularly use this product, please be kind
enough to register by sending
$5 Australian
to the author. This will ensure that precious development efforts will
continue. In return, you will receive excellent customer support, for any query
or problem, and be notified of new releases.
CopyPad remains the property of the author. It is freely distributable on any
medium or site. All files from the archive must be intact when distributed. I
do not guarantee the software's reliability, although I would appreciate being
informed of any problems anyone may have. Any damage or loss incurred as a
result of using this software is NOT the author's responsibility.
Microsoft employees and their families must pay US$1 000 000 in registration
for every copy they possess.
