installation.
=============
Installation is quite that simple. Copy the file EDIT32.EXE into a directory
contained in your systemvariable PATH. Copy the file EDIT32.HLP
into a directory contained in your systemvariable HELP.
Both systemvariables are set in the file CONFIG.SYS. If you change
CONFIG.SYS, shut down OS/2 and reboot the system.
E_EDIT.
=======
EDIT32 is based on the programmer's editor E_EDIT by Brian R. Anderson.
EDIT32 was ported from the 16 bit into the 32-Bit world of OS/2.
Essantial innovations are: use of standard file dialogs, support of
long file names, an asterix showing if the file inside the editor is
change since last load/save, and the introduction of a German version.
translation.
============
This editor should be translated in many languages. If you don't find a
version in your mother tongue, there a two possibilities: use the editor
in a foreign language or translate it.
EDIT32.EXE was compiled with the ICC of IBM. If you have this compiler
installed you can simply rebuild EDIT32.EXE with NMAKE. For this you have
to change to the directory SOURCE. You need a little experience in
programming C! For the translation you have to change four files:
-- EDIT.H
-- EDIT.C
-- EDIT32.IPF (in directory ENGLISH)
-- EDIT.RC
In EDIT.H a switch must be inserted:
/* #define English */
/* #define Deutsch */
#define <yourLanguage>
EDIT.C contains some constants. Copy the part #ifdef English ... #endif
or #ifdef Deutsch ... #endif and translate the texts of the constants.
Change the word "English" or "Deutsch" to <yourLanguage>.
EDIT.RC contains dialog boxes and the menu. Copy all parts
#ifdef English ... #endif or #ifdef Deutsch ... #endif and translate it.
Eventually you have to correct the size of the dialog boxes. The German
boxes are a little bit larger than the English ones.
EDIT.IPF contains all the help texts. Please translate.
If you have build a translated version of EDIT32, make it accessible to
many people. Put a copy include the sources into the Internet. I hope to
find lots of translations until Christmast 1994!
