Introduction
WinEdit is an ASCII text editor designed to take full advantage
of the Windows 3.0 graphical environment. WinEdit is first and
foremost a programmer's editor, with features designed for
creating and maintaining program source code. With its ASCII
file format, ability to edit files of almost unlimited size,
and word processing features such as headers and footers,
WinEdit also serves as an effective "front end" for
desktop publishers and word processors including PageMaker,
Word For Windows, and Ventura Publisher.
Features
* Use all available Windows memory to load up to 16MB of text
files.
* Multiple Document Interface allows an unlimited number of
document windows.
* Run your favorite compiler or other programming tool from
within WinEdit. WinEdit will monitor the compiler's output
and allow you to review any warning or error messages.
* Regular expressions can be used in search and replace
operations for powerful text manipulation capabilities.
* Full access to the Windows SDK help and C 6.0 language help
by clicking on any SDK or C language key word. (Requires
the Windows help file SDKWIN.HLP provided with the Microsoft
SDK and Microsoft QuickHelp provided with Microsoft C 6.0.)
* Print half sized "two-up" pages side by side in landscape
mode - ideal for source listings or early drafts of
desktop publishing documents.
* Headers and footers. WinEdit can optionally place
the document name, date, and time in the header or
footer of any printout.
* Easy to use. Online help is always available. All major
program features are available through the pulldown menus and
dialog boxes. Most-used features have accelerator keys as
well for lightning fast operation.
* Fast. One of WinEdit's design goals is speed in all critical
operations. WinEdit loads large files quickly, updates and
scrolls the screen instantly, and keeps up with the fastest
typist.

GETTING STARTED
Installing WinEdit
Winedit requires two files to run: WINEDIT.EXE and WE_MACRO.DLL.
Copy these files to a directory on your path, and you can start.
You should also copy the WinHelp file, WINEDIT.HLP, to the same
directory. If you are running Windows in 386 enhanced mode,
you can copy the file EDTEMP.PIF to your Windows directory
to allow WinEdit to compile from within a window.
That's it!
