GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991
:i1.Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Free Software Foundation, Inc.                           675 Mass Ave,

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies  of this license
document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share
and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to
guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the
software is free for all its users.  This General Public License applies to most
of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose
authors commit to using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is
covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
your programs, too.
:p.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.  Our
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish),
that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change
the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can
do these things.
:p.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny
you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it.
:p.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a
fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.  You must make
sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must show them
these terms so they know their rights.
:p.
We protect your rights with two steps&colon. (1) copyright the software, and (2)
offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software.  If the
software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to
know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by
others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
:p.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.  We wish
to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually
obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.  To prevent
this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free
use or not licensed at all.
:p.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
follow.
:p.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
:p.
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice
placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of
this General Public License.  The "Program", below, refers to any such program
or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any
derivative work under copyright law&colon. that is to say, a work containing the
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
translated into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without
limitation in the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
:p.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by
this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of running the Program is not
restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents
constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by
running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
:p.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as
you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;
keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
along with the Program.
:p.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at
your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
:p.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus
forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of
these conditions&colon.
:p.
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you
changed the files and the date of any change.
:p.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in
part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed
as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
:p.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you
must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate
copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that
you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these
conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception&colon. if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally
print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to
print an announcement.)
:p.
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and
its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate
works.  But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a
work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permission for other licensees extend to the entire whole,
and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
:p.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your
rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the
right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the
Program.
:p.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the
Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this
License.
:p.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section
2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above
provided that you also do one of the following&colon.
:p.
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code,
which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
:p.
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give
any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing
source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding
source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
:p.
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute
corresponding source code.  (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable
form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
:p.
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source code means all the
source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the executable.  However, as a special exception, the source code distributed
need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself
accompanies the executable.
:p.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code
from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third
parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
:p.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as
expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate
your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or
rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
long as such parties remain in full compliance.
:p.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program
or its derivative works.  These actions are prohibited by law if you do not
accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or
any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to
do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Program or works based on it.
:p.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program),
the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to
copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions.
You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the
rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third
parties to this License.
:p.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement
or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed
on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the
conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
License.  If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your
obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those
who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you
could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from
distribution of the Program.
:p.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the
section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
:p.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or
other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this
section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software
distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices.  Many
people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software
distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to
distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that
choice.  T
:p.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
consequence of the rest of this License.
:p.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright
holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit
geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that
distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.  In such
case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this
License.
:p.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will be similar in
spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems
or concerns.
:p.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program specifies
a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version",
you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version
or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.  If the
Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any
version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
:p.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs
whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for
permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,
write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of
all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of
software generally.
:p.
NO WARRANTY
:p.
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE
PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE
STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM
"AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
:p.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL
ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY
TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF
THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER
PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
:p.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
:p.
Appendix&colon. How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
:p.
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use
to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which
everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
:p.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest to attach
them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion
of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a
pointer to where the full notice is found.
:p.
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
:p.

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify     it
under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by     the Free

any later version.
:p.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY
WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the GNU General Public License for more details.
:p.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with
this program; if not, write to the Free Software     Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass
Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
:p.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
:p.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it
starts in an interactive mode&colon.
:p.
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
:p.
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This
is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain
conditions; type `show c' for details.
:p.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may be
called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
:p.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school,
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.  Here is
a sample; alter the names&colon.
:p.
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

:p.
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider
it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library.  If
this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead
of this License.
:p.
:p.
:p.
:h1 id='Why' res=304.Why did I write ListPM?
I wrote ListPM because I could not get other presentation manager text listing
programs to :link reftype=hd refid='Clipboard'.copy to the clipboard:elink..
Also, I wanted to learn how to write Open Class Library programs.
:p.It is a
:i1.multi-threaded
multi-threaded program so you can display separate files on different windows at
the same time.
:h1 id='Installation' res=318.Installation
Copy the program, listpm.exe to somewhere in your path.  Copy the help file:
listpm.hlp to some directory indicated by the HELP variable. Copy the INF file
to some directory indicated by the BOOK variable.
:h2 id='Languages' res=319.Other Languages (advanced)
To support this program for other
:i1.language
languages, edit listpm.res using the Universal resource Editor (URE). Change the
English in the strings to the language of your choice. Relink listpm.dll. And
put it into your path. All text strings are are in the resource DLL so you
should not need to modify the executable.
:p.Everyone is encouraged to define support for ListPM in other languages,
provided you honor the :link reftype=hd refid='GPL'.GNU Public Licence:elink..
Unfortunately, I only write English (after a fashion) (
:i1.hackish dialect
hackish dialect).
:h1 id='Do' res=305.What can ListPM do?
List PM displays files. :link reftype=hd refid='New'.New files :elink.can be
opened in multiple windows. The currently displayed file can be :link
reftype=hd refid='Replace'.replaced :elink.by another.
:p.Word wrapping can be used to display long lines. The font used to display
files can be changed.
:h2 id='File' res=306.File (Alt-F)
The
:i1.file
file menu allows you to choose :link reftype=hd refid='New'.new file :elink.to
be displayed in a new window. It also allows you to :link reftype=hd
 refid='Replace'.replace the file :elink.displayed in the current window. The
Window can be :link reftype=hd res=310.closed:elink..
:h3 id='New' res=307.New File Open (Alt-N)
Open a
:i1.New
New file in a new window. The file to open may be chosen with a open file
dialog. In this dialog, you may specify more than one file, and separate window
will be opened for each file.
:h3 id='Replace' res=309.Replace File (Alt-R)
:i1.Replace
Replace the file displayed in the current window. The new file to display may be
chosen with a open file dialog.
:h3 id='Close' res=310.Close (Alt-X) F3 <ESC>
This option
:i1.close
closes the current window. Other display windows continue.
:h2 id='Edit' res=311.Edit (Alt-E)
This menu allows you to do
:i1.editting type things
emitting type things, such as :link reftype=hd refid='Clipboard'.copying text to
the clipboard:elink..
:h3 id='Clipboard' res=312.Copy to Clipboard (CTRL-Ins)
Copy the selected text to the OS/2
:i1.clipboard
clipboard. Text may be selected by dragging mouse button 1.
:h3 id=ID@27 res=327.Search for text
You can search for any text string in the displayed file. The search can require
an exact case match or can be independent of upper and lower case. You can
search forward from the current location or in the reverse direction.
:h4 id=ID@28 res=329.Controling a search
You can specify the text to be searched for in the entry field. Check the exact
case check box if you wish to require that the found text match the specified
string exactly, including upper and lower case. You can control the direction of
the search, with the Forward and Reverse radio buttons.
:h5 id='ExactCase' res=331.Exact case
Checking the Exact case checkbox causes ListPM to consider upper and lower case
when searching for text. For example if you were searching for the string
"selectively" and the text contained the word "Selectively", then ListPM would
not detect a match if exact case were checked, but it would if it was unchecked.
:h5 id='Forward' res=332.Forward search
When the Forward Search radio button is checked, the search will proceed in the
forward direction. That is, from the beginning toward the end of the file.
:h5 id='Reverse' res=333.Reverse Search
When the Reverse Search radio button is checked, the search will proceed in the
reverse direction. That is, from the end toward the beginning of the file.
:h3 id=ID@29 res=328.Search for text again
Search for the previously specified text string again, in the same direction and
with the same exact case specification.
:h2 id='Options' res=313.Options
Select ListPM
:i1.option
options such as :link reftype=hd refid='WordWrap'.word wrap :elink.and
:link reftype=hd refid='Font'.fonts:elink..
:h3 id='WordWrap' res=314.Word Wrap (Alt-W)
:i1.Word wrapping
Word wrapping controls how lines that are too long for the window are displayed.
When turned :link reftype=hd refid='On'.ON:elink., long text file lines are
broken between words and displayed on multiple window lines. When turned
:link reftype=hd refid='Off'.OFF:elink., long lines are truncated in the
displayed window. The original data in the text file is untouched. ListPM is a
readonly program.
:h4 id='On' res=315.On
Turns word wrapping ON. When turned ON, long text file lines are broken between
words and displayed on multiple window lines. The original data in the text file
is untouched. ListPM is a readonly program.
:h4 id='Off' res=316.Off
Turns word wrapping off. When turned OFF, long lines are truncated in the
displayed window. The original data in the text file is untouched. ListPM is a
readonly program.
:h3 id='Font' res=317.Font
Selects a new
:i1.font
font to display the text file in the window. The new font will be selected with
an OS/2 font dialog. You will be asked if you want to make the new font the
default fonts when displaying all new files.
:h1 id='Keys' res=321.Keys Help
:p.Ctrl-Ins :link reftype=hd refid='Clipboard'.Copy the selected text to OS/2
clipboard:elink..
