NOTEBOOK
A Windows New Technology Text Editor
Version 1.G March BETA* 5/2/93 by Mark Berlinger
Dear Future Customer:
When you decide to register as a user contact Mark Berlinger by
the U. S. postal service. Messages may be sent to the author by way of
CompuServe to number 70134,3016.
Here's the deal. You send a sawbuck (ten dollars American) and a
proper name to the address at the end of this file. Upon receiving the
consideration you will be contacted through the same BBS or mail if desired.
If you want to use a credit card, the fee is sixteen dollars. The return
message will contain an identification number. Corporate and site license
fees are $50 for 10 PCs to $300 for an unlimited number of PCs. See the
help file for details.
To order by credit card (only) contact:
Public (software) Library with your MC, Visa, AmEx or Discover card by
calling 800-2424-PsL or 713-524-6394 or by FAX to 713-524-6398 or by
CompuServe to 71355,470 or by mail to PsL, P. O. Box 35705, Houston, TX
77235-5705. Please include your address with all orders. These numbers
are for ordering only. For information about dealer pricing, volume
discounts, site licensing or technical information contact the author.
The optional diskette service is an additional $6 or $8 overseas
cash or check to the author for shipping and handling. By credit card from
PsL the diskette service is $4 S&H or $6 S&H overseas.
The name and ID number are entered into the nagware dialog box.
The name and ID number are added to the "notebook.ini" information which
sits in the "winnt" sub-tree. Notebook will run without the nagware
display when the "ini" file contains a proper name and ID number match.
The proper name will appear in the title bar at program start.
The matching name and ID number will work in minor version number
upgrades containing minor fixes or improvements to Notebook for NT. As
always, constructive criticism is appreciated.
Notebook for New Technology in beta to be sure, is available for
the Windows NT operating system. Notebook for NT has the functionality of
Notebook 1.G for Windows 3.1.

Thanks for the constructive feedback. More of your suggestions
are likely to be implemented in future versions.
----------------
Thanks go to the hard working folks at Microsoft. Thank you BobL,
PaulT and MikeM for your continuing efforts.
Notebook can open files to the limits of available memory. This
version limits the edit control to 40 kilobytes. Therefore response to
keyboard input stays constant and not slowed by ponderous memory movement of
a huge EC. For now the vertical scroll bar range is limited to this edit
control size. To travel to the next or previous section of a document press
an enabled menu bar push button or type Ctrl+PgUp or Ctrl+PgDn. Work will
continue to eliminate the vertical scroll segmentation.
Notebook.exe is bundled with a help file called notebook.hlp,
several useful icon files including one for black and white displays called
notebkbw.ico, and this file called noteinfo. This is Notebook NT compiled
and assembled with March BETA SDK.
