- Black Magic v1.5 NTERGAID REGISTRATION $
- HYPERTEXT BLACK MAGIC NTERGAID MOUSE
-
- Update
- Hardware Requirements
-
- Black Magic is a hypertext authoring system. The Black
- Magic Reader is released into the public domain so any
- hypertext information system you may create can also passed
- freely.
-
- Black Magic will requires either an EGA graphics card, a CGA
- graphics card, or a Hercules card, a hard disk, and 256K of
- memory for operation. Mouse support is included for
- Microsoft and compatible mice. Black Magic may also be used
- on VGA graphics systems, but it will operate the system in
- EGA mode.
-
- Black Magic will automatically configure itself for your
- computer graphics card; however in some situations this is
- not desirable. To circumvent this, Command Line options may
- now be entered to force Black Magic into certain graphics
- modes.
-
- NEW!
- The manual states that there are three separate reader
- programs called READEGA.COM, READCGA.COM, and READHGA.COM
- that are in the public domain and used to read the .MAG
- hypertext files. To eliminate the inconvenience of three
- separate programs, these have been combined into one called
- MAGREAD.COM. MAGREAD.COM is used in exactly the same
- fashion as the previous reader programs, only it adapts
- automatically to your graphics system.
-
- NEW!
- The mouse may now be used to manipulate the map. To scroll
- the map with the mouse, merely move the mouse to the edge of
- the screen and it will scroll automatically. The mouse may
- also be used to goto any map location by simply clicking the
- mouse cursor on the node of the map that you wish to go to.
-
- Additional Commands
-
- The following commands have been added to Black Magic:
-
- <Alt> H Show/Hide Link Markers
- <Ctrl> O Search Options
-
- NEW!
- With Black Magic, Reference Link to other files can be
- created. These links will simply transfer the reader to
- another .MAG file when activated. THis effectively removes
- the memory limitation of RAM from hypertext documents.
-
- NEW!

- enhanced since the manual was written. Since then the
- following capabilities have been added:
-
- Top Margin Control

- Number Of Text Lines
- Double/Single Spacing
- Page Numbering
- Configurable Printer Drivers
- Header
