- Description of My Little Realm's DizzE
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Brief Summary of DizzE
-
- DizzE (The DIZ Editor) is a specialized editor for the DIZ files that most
- BBS's require these days. DizzE checks for the required separator. It
- performs block operations and ensures that the file is no longer than ten
- lines long, the maximum allowed by most BBS's.

-
- Indepth Article about DizzE
-
- My Little Realm's DizzE lets Shareware software developers create, change
- and print the FILE_ID.DIZ files that most BBS's require these days. It
- allows block operations, making cutting and pasting fast and easy. DIZ files
- can be printed in one of three page layouts: standard, top center and dead
- center. DizzE warns you if you try to overwrite another DIZ file. It lets
- you delete DIZ files. It checks to be sure you have the separator in the
- first three lines of text, and it also ensures that you haven't included more
- than the maximum ten lines of text in your files.
