- A folding editor for the Atari ST
-
- By Shawn Hargreaves
-
-
- This file contains documentation on the configuration utility (FED_CFG.TOS)
- and details of how to install FED. The main documentation is in the file
- FED.DOC.
-
- To install FED, place the files FED.TOS, FED.CFG, FED.DOC and FED_CFG.TOS
- in the same directory. If you are using a shell that supports environment
- variables, this directory should be included in your PATH. Before using
- FED itself, run FED_CFG.TOS to set up the configuration file FED.CFG. If
- this file already exists FED_CFG will edit it, otherwise it will create a
- new file using the default settings.
-
- The configuration program gives you the following options:
-
- 1: Use 80 characters in low rez?
- If this option is selected and FED is run in low resolution (40
- columns) it will automatically switch to medium resolution to allow
- the display of 80 columns of text. You should not select this option
- if you are using multitasking software such as MiNT or Mag!X. This is
- the same as using the -w command line option.
-
- 2: Use 50 lines in high rez?
- If this option is selected and FED is run in high resolution it will
- display text in 50 line mode instead of the usual 25 lines. This is the
- same as using the -h command line option.
-
- 3: Force screen width:
- 4: Force screen height:
- If you are using a windowing program such as TOSWIN or a graphics card
- which FED does not recognize, you may have to set these values to the
- width and height of your screen (in characters).
-
- 5: Binary mode files:
- This is a list of file extensions, separated by commas. Files with
- these extensions will always be loaded in binary mode, even if the -b
- command line switch is not given.
-
- 6: Auto fold files:
- This is a list of file extensions, separated by commas. Files with
- these extensions will be folded as they are loaded, even if the -f
- command line switch is not given.
-
- 7: Auto indent on files:
- This is a list of file extensions, separated by commas. Files with
- these extensions will have automatic indentation turned on when they
- are loaded.
-
- 8: Word wrap on files:
- This is a list of file extensions, separated by commas. Files with
- these extensions will have word wrap turned on when they are loaded.
-
- 9: Word wrap at column:
- The column at which to word wrap, if the file extension is in the word
- wrap list.
-
- a: Case sensitive searches?
- Are searches case sensitive by default?
-
- b: Tab size:
- FED converts tabs to spaces as they are typed. This is the number of
- spaces that are inserted for each tab.
-
- c: Strip spaces on save?
- If this option is selected, FED will replace leading spaces with tabs,
- and will strip trailing spaces from files as they are saved, to conserve
- disk space.
-
- d: Print only ASCII characters?
- If this option is selected, FED will replace any characters not in the
- regular ASCII character set (32-126) with spaces during printing,
- to prevent sending accidental control codes to the printer.
-
- e: Pass 'touch' to shell?
- If this option is selected, FED will use the shell_p pointer execute a
- 'touch' command whenever a file is saved. If you are using my shell
- program (imaginatively called shell, and available from umich and
- hensa.ac.uk) this will tell it when a project file has been altered. If
- you are not using my shell, don't turn this option on.
-
- You can also remap any of the control keys used by FED. To do this, simply
- press the key that you wish to remap. The configuration program will
- display the function code currently mapped to the key, or 0 if it has not
- been mapped. You can alter this value to the code of the function you wish
- to map the key to (0 to map it to nothing), or press ESC to cancel. Be
- warned: if you remap a regular key such as 'a' or SPACE you will not be
- able to type it into your files.
-
- For convenience, here is a list of all the function codes:
-
- 1: left 21: search files 41: open file
- 2: right 22: search case sens. 42: write file
- 3: word left 23: delete prev char 43: print file
- 4: word right 24: delete next char 44: close file
- 5: start of line 25: delete word 45: view files
- 6: end of line 26: delete line 46: next file
- 7: line up 27: mark block 47: save all and exit
- 8: line down 28: kill 48: quit
- 9: screen up 29: yank 49: start macro
- 10: screen down 30: lower case word 50: end macro
- 11: start of file 31: upper case word 51: play macro
- 12: end of file 32: transpose chars 52: repeat key
- 13: go to line 33: insert ASCII code 53: command to shell
- 14: show position 34: insert <CR> 54: play tetris
- 15: match brace 35: insert <TAB> 55: change screen mode
