└────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
As a user of FW-TEXT you will find a program with the standard
SAA-CUA user interface, similar to the structure of MS-WORD 5.5.
FW-TEXT has been designed for editing smaller - and even bigger -
documents offering the necessary functions for textprocessing
without pressing the user to learn (and pay) never used extended
features. Nevertheless you will find also usefull extended
features like standard texts from a database, macros, graphics
inport etc.
New features of version V4.50:
- User interface according to SAA-CUA standard
- Lots of new detail functions
- Nearly unlimeted textsizes due to the use of "Virtuell
Memory"
- Increased programmspeed
- Highly extended Mouse-operating of the program
- Extended screendisplay modes, especcially in graphics mode
with three-dimensional buttons (like MS-Windows)
- Graphic page preview like MS-WORD.
- Import of PCX-graphics into the text.
- Background print under use of the MS-DOS printerspooler
PRINT.EXE.

2. The Shareware-concept
════════════════════════
Before we start with the program, some words about the
Shareware-prinziple. Some customers still don't know what
"Shareware" means. Personal I prefer the formulation
"Test-before-buy-software"
What does this mean ?
Quite simple, first you "test" the program, then - if you like
it - you buy it. This is the biggest difference compared with
commercial software, where you very seldom have the chance for an
intensiv test of the software. At least you have purchased this
DEMO of FW-TEXT from a P(ublic)-D(omain)-Softwaredealer or loaded
it down from your favourite mailbox. With this DEMO-version you
can test ALL features for a certain time (say 30 days).
Afterwards you have to decide if you want continue using FW-TEXT.
If so you have to register your copy of FW-TEXT which means paying
a license fee.
Please sennd your registration formular and your license fee to
the author of the program.
With the registration you receive the latest version of FW-TEXT
which can be used on a single computer at the same time. Copies
for other users are not allowed and against our copyright. For
further details please refer to the license contract in APPENDIX
E.
So the benefits ot this way of selling a program are quite
clear. YOU are not buying a program without knowing it, and WE
don't have exploding commercial costs. That's why we can sell the
program at very reasonable price.
Beside the FULL-version of FW-TEXT you are receiving additional
service from FW-Software:
- "Lifetime" updateservice. That means, that you can purchase
new programversions after registration at a reduced price
(normally half of the FULL-version price).
- "Lifetime" free Hot-Line on phone under the below mentioned
telefon or telefax number. All times mentioned are local
German times.

But now, enough with this introduction, let's start with the
program !!
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 5]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
3. Hardware requirements
════════════════════════
FW-TEXT V4.50 was designed on an IBM-compatible 80486DX-33MHz- PC
with 8514/A ATI graphics card, Panasync Monitor and harddisc under
MS-DOS 5.00 as operating system with COMMAND.COM and 4DOS as
command interpreters. As printers a Canon BJ 300 Bubblejet, a
Star LC 10 - Matrixprinter and laserprinters make Epson (EPL-4100)
and HP (Laserjet Series II) were tested.
The program is developed in Clipper V5.01a as the programming
language. Some third party toolboxes are used. As editor we are
using "the world's famous one" - Captain BLACKBEARD (ShareWare).
Following hardware requirements are essential:
1. Operating system MS/PC-DOS version 3.20 and above. DR-DOS
V3.41, 5.0 and 6.0 are successfully tested from customers.
FW-TEXT is also running under IBM's OS/2 2.0 and Windows 3.1
(in extended mode) inside a DOS window (with mouse).
2. The computer must have at least a HD-discdrive (special
version for LapTops). For a complete installation you need
a harddisc. Due to the virtuell memory managment FW-TEXT is
intensivly using Expanded Memory. If there is no expanded
memory available, parts of the program will be stored on
the harddisc. With slow hardware you will feel a definite
decrease in speed.
3. Any graphics-card like CGA-, EGA- VGA- and Hercules can be
used. The type of the graphics-card will be identified by
FW-TEXT. With colorgraphics-cards colors are used.
Furthermore on EGA- and VGA-cards extended graphic-mode's are
available.
4. More than 350 printers are supported directly through
printer drivers. All drivers can be modified by the user.
5. The PC should have at least 520 KB free RAM available. The
more free RAM you have, the bigger your text-files can be.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 6]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
4. Let's go - basic informations
════════════════════════════════
Before we start, some hints regarding the syntax and symbols used
in this manual. Filenames are typed allways uppercase (p.E.
FW-TEXT.EXE). Filegroups will be defined with wildcards (p.E.
{*.DRV}, {????INFO.DBF}). Keys are uppercase and typed like this
[F1]. Key-combinations, like [Strg]+[F1] are connected with a "+"
sign. "[F1]...[F10]" are identifing the function keys.
Main menuitems are typed like this <FILE>, <WINDOW>. Submenuitems
are typed in normal case and connected directly to the main
menuitme like this <FILE>Print>, <FORMAT>Character>.
4.1 Delivery scope
──────────────────

If you find a file READ.ME!, then this file will contain
up-to-date news about the program, possible bug-fixes, new
releases etc.
The files marked with "#" are compressed in a selfextracting
archiv with the name TEXT_450.EXE. This can be started as a
normal program. The files will be extracted automatically.
All files marked with "*" will be automatically produced during
the normal operation of the program, either immediately ("*S") or
if requested ("*N").
4.2 Program installation
────────────────────────
Late, but not to late some informations about the installation of
FW-TEXT. You will find this informations also in the file
INSTALL.DOC on the distribution disc.
You can install FW-TEXT directly on a harddisc or can use it
also with a special floppy disc-version from floppies. For the
harddisc installation please follow the following steps:
1. Prepare a copy of the distribution disc with the DOS-command
DISKCOPY. Please use only this copy during the next steps
and store the original disc in a save place.
2. Put the installation disc either in drive A: or B:.
3. Make either drive A: or B: active with one of the
following commands:
A: [<─┘]
or B: [<─┘]
This step is VERY important. The sourcedrive MUST be the
active drive on DOS-level.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 8]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
4a. Installation on floppies:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A direct installation on floppy-discs is not anymore
possible with this version of FW-TEXT. But you can order a
special version on 5,25"-HD- or 3,5"-HD-disc ready
installed as the major license or as an extension of the
basic license (against an additional small handling fee).
Please call the HotLine for further informations.
4b. Installation on harddisc:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pleas enter now the following command:
INSTALL ■ d: ■ \subdir [<─┘]
The "■" is a symbol for a [SPACE]. "d:" is the identifier
of your harddisc, "\subdir" is the name of the target
directory, which can be made and opened by INSTALL if it is
not existing. If you don't specify a target directory,
FW-TEXT will be installed on the target drive in the right
now active subdirectory.
IMPORTANT: Target drive ("d:") and target directory
("\subdir") have to be devided by a [SPACE].
The name of the target directory must begin with
a backslash ("\") but must NOT end with a
backslash !!
EXAMPLES: INSTALL ■ C: ■ \FWTEXT (Right !!)
INSTALL ■ C:\FWTEXT (Wrong,
[SPACE] is missing!)
INSTALL ■ C: ■ \FWTEXT\ (Wrong, NO backslash
at the end of the
targetdir name !!)
INSTALL ■ C: ■ FWTEXT (Wrong, backslash at the
beginning of the
targetdir name is
missing !!)
5. Now the installation begins ! If INSTALL.BAT interupts with
an error message like "Write error..., Disk full ... or so,
please check, if the specified parameters are correct before
you send back your disc or call the HotLine.
6. After successful installation, you will find yourself at the
DOS-level on the target drive in the target directory.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 9]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
7. FW-TEXT will now operate normally. If you face problems
please refer first to part 4.3, Systemconfiguration, in the
ondisc manual FW-TEXT.DOC. Take care of enough free RAM.
FW-TEXT needs about 520 KB free RAM, but the more you have
free, the more will be used for your texts. Expanded memory
will be supported.
4.3 System-configuration
────────────────────────
You have several possibilities to influence the work of FW-TEXT.
Some changes are necessary, some are optional.
- Your file CONFIG.SYS (MS-DOS-configuration-file) MUST contain
the following rows: ~~~~
FILES=60 (or more, but not less !!)
BUFFERS=10 (or more)
The FILES-parameter is very important. MS-DOS keeps normally
only 8 files opened at the same time. This number is MUCH to
less for FW-TEXT. You change it with the FILES-parameter.
- Definition of the memory use through the
enviroment-variable CLIPPER:
SET CLIPPER=Exxxx;Fxxx;
The part "xxx" means with the "E"-parameter the size of
available expanded memory (EMS) in KB. Preceeding zeros have to
be included.
The "F"-parameter is crosslinked to the FILES-parameter in
CONFIG.SYS but has for CLIPPER programs the higher priority.
For PC's without EMS you should use something like the
following:
SET CLIPPER=F70;
and for PC's with EMS (about 600 KIB free) you should use
something like this:
SET CLIPPER=E512;F70;
According to your available amount of EMS you can use more
or less, but less than 128 KB makes no sense. If you don't
specify the "E"-parameter, all available EMS will be occupied
by the CLIPPER-program.
You should the row with the SET CLIPPER-command in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT - file or in any other batchfile which calls
FW-TEXT.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 10]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
4.4 Programmstart
──────────────────
The files 1 / 3 / 4 / 5 und 6 have to be placed in the same
subdirectory. You start FW-TEXT with the following command:
C:\>fw-text [textfile.ext] [<─┘]
The parameter [textfile.ext] is optional. You can load
immediately the specified textfile with FW-TEXT via this
parameter. If you specify a definite extension [.ext] behind the
[textfile], than this extension will be used. If you don't
specify an extension, FW-TEXT adds automatically the standard
extension {.TXT} to the filename. P.E. FW-TEXT is loading
{WERBUNG.TXT}, if you enter only WERBUNG as the
[textfile]-parameter.
4.5 First installation
──────────────────────
A first installation of FW-TEXT is not anymore necessary. You
only have to type in the identification number during the first
start of FW-TEXT. This identification number is combined with
internal numbers to your specific serial number.
If you call the Hot-Line please have this number available
because its easier to identify your release of FW-TEXT with this
number and so to find out if the error you have found has been
removed in the meantime. If so you will get a replacement nearly
free of charge (see item 8.).
All major hardware will be identified by FW-TEXT automatically
to be shure that FW-TEXT works with it properly. If you see p.E.,
that FW-TEXT don't recognize your mouse, than take care of a
Microsoft compatible mouse driver.
All settings and changes made during the runtime of FW-TEXT will
be saved after exiting FW-TEXT automatically in the files
FWCFG.DBF and FWPRINT.DBF. Afterwards they are loaded anytime you
start FW-TEXT again.
After starting of FW-TEXT the desktop will be opened. If you
knbow other programs with a SAA-CUA-user interface or if you are
familiar with MS-WORD 5.5 you will feel immediately "at home".

Picture 1: "Snapshot" of the FW-TEXT dekstop
──────────
In the first row you will find a copyright note and the version
of FW-TEXT you are using. Below this row you see all main
menuitems, which will be explained in the following parts of this
manual.
In the main window you type in your text. The ruler in the top
row of the the window contains important informations for you.
Formating borders ("[]"), indents ("{}"), Tabs (full triangle -
ASCII-character 31) etc..

[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
With the buttons "v^" in the upper right corner of the
windowframe you can change the size of the window between
fullsize and standard size.
At thr right and bottom margin of the window frame you will find
scrollbars for easy moving inside your text with the mouse.
In the last row of the screen you find page, row and colomn
counters, additional informations about your mailmerga database
(if connected to your text) and at least the insert(overwrite
status. If you have deleted some text, this will also be
displayed in short form in this row.

5. Informations about the program
═════════════════════════════════
5.1 Help !!
───────────
At any time you can call a context sensitive help about items in
your window by pressing [F1]. With the submenuitem <HELP>Index>
you will get a general information how edit your text. By
pressing [ALT]+[F1] or calling the submenuitem <HELP>Keyboard> the
help-system informs you about the functions keys.
5.2 Selecting a menuitem
────────────────────────
FW-TEXT comes with a mainmenu-row which can be activated by
pressing the
[ALT]-key together with the highlighted letter of the menuitem.
As soon as a mainmenuitem is activ, the submenuitems will be
displayed. Simply by pressing the highlighted letter of the
submenuitem you can start it immediately. But also with the
cursorkeys you can highlight the submenuitem of your choice and
can activate is by pressing [ENTER].
The easiest way of handling menus is using the mouse. Place the
mouse-coursor on any menuitem you want to start (main- or submenu)
and klick on the left button of your mouse.
With [ESC] or a mouseclick in the free textzone you can leave the
menusystem at any time without making a selection.
5.3 Editorcommands (basic informations)
───────────────────────────────────────
If we talking in this manual about a mainmenuitem, this one is
typed in uppercase with the arrows around it ("<", ">").
Submenuitems are following immediately behind the corresponding
mainmenuitem ended with an arrow (">").
If you find tables or selection-lists (like loading files) you can
walk around in this lists with the [cursor-up]- and
[cursor-down]-keys. With the [ENTER]-key you make your
selection. But the simpliest way in any case is using the mouse.
Place the mousecursor on the listitem and doubleclick with the
left mousebottun - ready.
It is very difficult to describe everything. Try it and you will
find the most convinient way for yourself. There is nearly
nothing ou can destroy.

5.3.2 Function keys
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beside the controlling of the program with the main- and
submenuitems you can reach a lot of functions with function keys.
This requires a little bit learning but at least typing is a lot
faster without using the mouse.

Picture 2: Filemanager-Window
──────────
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 18]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
You will see this window with changing headlines at several
points of the program. It allways will be shown when you have to
do something with files (loading, saving, inserting etc.).
That's why we will call it from now on the Filemanager-window
(shortcut "FM"-window).
This window comprises diferent parts, which can be selected with
the [TAB]-key or with the mouse. In the field "Filename" you
specify a file or a group of files like {*.TXT} (here FW-TEXT
standard). Presettings are:
- for FW-Text-files : {*.TXT}
- for dBASE-Prg-files : {*.PRG}
- for All-files : {*.*}
- for Graphic-files : {*.PCX}
- for Databases : {*.DBF}
This presettings can be changed at any time p.E. {A*.TXT} = all
files starting with an "A" and having the extension ".TXT"
In the row below the filename the actual path is displayed.
In the "Files:"-list all files according to the specification
will be displayed (lowercase) together with subdirectories
(uppercase). A doubleclick on a subdirectory-name changes
immediately to this subdirectory. A doubleclick on a filename
loads this file immediately.
Please note, the FW-TEXT is able to handle textfiles of nearly
all sizes, depending on the free amount of RAM in your computer.
Furthermore you can open several texts in seperate windows at the
same time. Each text, you open with <FILE>Open file> will
automatically be transfered in a new window. So a text, which was
opened prior to the new opening will now be closed automatically.
For FW-TEXT V4.50 the size is not the important factor, but the
number of lines in your text - and at least the number of opened
texts.
So you load even bigger documents like this manual (about 150
KB). The magic words are "virtuel memory managment". FW-TEXT
loads not the complete text into RAM but line by line. 1000 lines
of text require about 20 KB of free RAM, so this document (3300
lines) requires about 60 KB of free RAM.
6.1.3 Close file>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Closes the text in the actual window. If you have made changes
to text after the last saving, a window will ask you, if you
want to save this changes.
Closing of the last window/text will NOT end FW-TEXT. You will
find yourself on an empty desktop. Leaving FW-TEXT can only be
done by pressing [ALT]+[F4] or choosing of <FILE>Quit>.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 19]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
6.1.4 Close all>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Like Close file>, but ALL files/windows will be closed
automatically one after another. Not saved changes will be noted
and you are asked for each text for saving them. Also with this
menuitem FW-TEXT will NOT be closed (see above).
6.1.5 Save file>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The actual text will be saved under his name. If it is a "New
file"-text, a filename will be asked via the "FM"-window.
6.1.6 Save as...>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Liek Save File>, but a filename will be asked in any case via the
"FM"-window. The filename must not be a new one. If you are
going to save the new text under an existing filename, a safety
question will be displayed, asking you for confirmation of this
operation.
FW-TEXT handles files according to the MS-DOS-convention, means,
that a filename can consist of 8 characters and a 3 character
extension. If you are saveing a file via Save file> or Save
as...> and you are NOT specifying an extension, FW-TEXT adds
automatically the extension {.TXT}. The file "PETER" will be
saved as {PETER.TXT}.
If you have entered the filename with a "." but without an
extension it will remain in this way, means that "PETER." will be
saved as {PETER.} without extension.
6.1.7 Save all>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All files which are edited at the moment will be saved but NOT
closed. If you have "New file>"-text's a name for this files will
be asked automatically.
6.1.8 File-manager>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See part 6.1.2.

[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
Set up : Select the printerport. NEVER print directly to
the port which is related to the printerspooler,
activated before FW-TEXT with PRINT. Available are
LPT1 to LPT3 (parallel ports) and COM1/2 (seriell
ports).
From page : [ 1] to: [9999]:
With this parameters you can select pages from
your document to be printed. This fields are only
activ if you have choosen "pages" as the printing
area.
First page : Herewith you can specify a number of the first page
other than number "1". This option is very useful
for longer documents which have to be splitted over
several files, but which have to be printed with a
continous pagenumbering.
Output device: Define, how you want to print your text:
(■) Direct : The text will be printed imme-
printing diately on the selected prin-
terport.
( ) Spooler : The text will be added to the
printqueue. For more informa-
tions please refewr to part
6.1.13.
( ) File: [ ]:
The text will be printed into
a file. If you specify no
name, the file will be auto-
matically titled FW-TEXT.PRN
( ) Screen : The text will be printed into a
new window on the screen. This
option is not the page preview
describe below.
Select printer: See part 6.1.12, <FILE>Select printer>
Database : See part 6.6.3, <EXTRAS>Database>
Options : A window will be opened where you specify the
following options for the print:
[ ] Format text during printing:
if this option is deactivated (standard),
the text will be printed as diplayed on the
screen. If this option is activated the
result can not be proved before.
[ ] Eject page before printing
[ ] Eject page after printing
This options adding additonal page-ejects to
your document. This option is very useful on
a Network-printer to devide the several
documents with empty pages.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 22]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
[x] NLQ-print on
Herewith you start (or stop) the printout to
be in Near Letter Quality.
[x] Print PCX-files
Herewith you specify if the PCX-files in your
document shall be printed or not.
6.1.10 Print preview>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
if you know the page preview of MS-WORD, here you will find
your "copy" in FW-TEXT. Your text will be graphically displayed
on two pages. Easily you see, if all margins and pagebreaks are
correct or if all gprahics are placed properly.
The graphics themself will not be displayed to save time via
building of this pages. On slow PC's you will feel a heavy
decrease in speed, that's why we choose, not to display the
graphics. However the space occupied by the images is left blank
to identify the right place and size.
6.1.11 Mail merge>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start the mail merge print. Due to CLIPPER as the programming
language FW-TEXT is directly supporting databases in the dBASE
III+ format. You will be asked for the filters for this printout,
afterwards you will end in the same print window as described
above.
More informations about the mail merge print in FW-TEXT can be
found in chapter 7.
6.1.12 Select Printer>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Choose your printer - with the Cursor keys you select a
printerdriver for your printer. Onscreen the names of all 350
printerdrivers will be displayed in a selection-list. Select your
printer by highlighting it with the cursorkeys and pressing
[ENTER] or doubleclick on it with the mouse.
If you don't find your Fujijama XYZ325-printer in this list (what
a wonder) please refer to the following hints about finding a
compatible printer:
- Dotmatrix-printers:
Nearly all printers are compatible either to the Epson
"ESC-P"-codes or to the IBM-codes. Please refer to your printer
manual which (normally) includes a compatibility list.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 23]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
- Bubblejet-printers:
It's a little bit more difficult. But at least most of the
bubblejet printers have an Epson-compatible mode. Other
printers are following the Canon-standard. For both, Epson and
Canon you will find drivers in the printerlist of FW-TEXT. Oh
yes, before I forget it - Hewlett packard is also manufacturing
inkjet printers. This ones are - as ever with HP - only
compatible to HP. But don't worry, HP-printerdrivers are also
in the FW-TEXT-printerdatabase.
- Laserprinter ("classic", not "Postscript"):
99 % of the Laserprinters are compatible to the HP-Laserjet.
Some are also compatible to the CANON-Laserprinters. And if
nothing fits, 80 % of the laserprinters have an Epson
matrixprinter emulation "on board".
In any case your are landing in a window, where you can change the
printercodes. If you don't want to change anything press [ESC]
and selct < Ok > afterwards.
If you want to change something, select the printercode from the
list with the cursor keys. Press [ENTER] to activate the
editwindow, change the code and press [ENTER] again - ready. If
you are ready, proceed as described above.
Codes have to typed as follows (all examples are Espon ESC-P-
codes):
Example:
********
As printercode for expanded letters you will find in your printer
manual the following:
ESC+"W"+1 (expanded letters ON) and
ESC+"W"+0 (expanded letters OFF).
This codes have to translated to the decimal ASCII-code. So the
sequenz for FW-TEXT looks like this:
27 87 1 (ON) and 27 87 1 (OFF)
Please take your attention to this syntax regulations:
1. Uppercase and lowercase is NOT the same, ESC+"w" is NOT the
same as ESC+"W" !!
2. The ASCII-codes have to be entered DECIMAL, NOT (!!!!)
hexadecimal.
3. All numbers have to be deverted by a [SPACE].
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 24]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
4. More ESC-sequences for one attribute are possible. But, each
code has to be complete, means has to begin with an ESC (27).
Example:
********
We want to activate at the same time expanded letters in
double hight. The codes therefore are:
ESC+"W"+1 (exp. ON) plus ESC+"w"+1 (double hight ON)
and ESC+"W"+0 (exp. OFF) plus ESC+"w"+0 (double hight OFF)
The codes for FW-TEXT are as follows:
Expanded ON: 27 87 1 27 119 1
Expanded OFF: 27 87 0 27 119 0
5. For entering the codes you have 50 characters per attribute.
Generally this should be enough.
If you are ready with your changes, press [ESC] and select < Ok >.
The changes will be saved automaticvally to the printer database
PRINTER.RPR. If you select < Abort > all changes will not be saved.
6.1.13 Spooler>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Spooler> controls the printout of all texts in the printer queue.
For this option it is necessary to load PRINT (spooler of MS-DOS)
before starting FW-TEXT. You should start PRINT as follows:
PRINT /D:LPTx /Q:32
"LPTx" means your printer port (either LPT1/LPT2/LPT3). Please
note, that you have no chances to change this port after you have
called PRINT. During spooled printing to this port you should
NEVER print directly to this port from FW-TEXT. After the spooler
has finished, you can print again directly to this port.
For the printout FW-TEXT opens temorarly files with special
names. This files will be transfered to PRINT for printing them.
After PRINT has finished, FW-TEXT automatically deletes this
file. If you end FW-TEXT before finishing your print, all files
will be printed up to the end of the queue, but not automatically
deleted. If you start FW-TEXT the next time, it will find this
files and delete them automatically.
If you have spooled a mail merge print, all texts with all
datasets will be printed into a huge spool-file, which will be
transfered thean to PRINT. Depending on the size of your text and
the number of datasets, this file can really become HUGE !!
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 25]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
6.1.14 Quit>
~~~~~~~~~~~~
With Quit> (or [ALT]+[F4]) you leave FW-TEXT. Not yet saved texts
will be saved after the standard safety question. If you have
changed some internat parameters of FW-TEXT you will also be asked
if this changes should be saved or not.
6.2 Editing functions <PROCESS>
───────────────────────────────
In this main menu item you will find all functions for editing
your text, including block and standard text operations.
6.2.1 Undo>
~~~~~~~~~~~
Herewith you Undo your last deletion of text with the keys [Del],
[CTRL]+[F6], [CTRL]+[F7] or [CTRL]+[Y]. The deleted text will be
shown in the status row in the textbuffer (marked with "[", "]")
to the right hand side of the row-, column- and page-counters.
6.2.2 Repeat>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Repeats the last function.
6.2.3 Cut>
~~~~~~~~~~
Cuts out a previously marked part of your text and places it into
one of the textbuffers (1-7).
6.2.4 Copy>
~~~~~~~~~~~
The previously marked text will be copied into textbuffer "0". It
will not be deleted from the position in your text.
6.2.5 Paste>
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The text, which has been Cut>ted or Copy>ed out of your document
will be filled in at the actual cursor position. The target
document for this procedure must not be the same as the source
document. The paste-process can be done as often as you like.
The paste buffer will not be emptied by the first paste-operation.

6.2.6 Search>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Search> helps you in locating certain parts of your text. After
choosing this menuitem a window will be opened asking for the
following informations.
First you have to type in the search-text. This text is limited
to 45 characters, allthough the input area is only 12 characters
wide.
Afterwards you have to specify the search direction. You can
start from the very beginning of the document or from the actual
cursorposition.
Further options are:
- Search case sensitiv:
Nothing explain about this, or ?
- Search as seperate word:
If you choose this option, it will be assumed for this search,
that the search text is a single word. "Out" will only be found
in a context like "Out of this part....", but not in "we expect
a high outcome...".
Clicking on < OK > starts the search.
6.2.7 Exchange>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are only some small differences between Exchange> and
Search>, that's why only this differences are explained here.
After entering the search text you have to type in the exchange
text (again max. 45 characters). Exchange>-options are:
- Case sensitive exchange:
See Search> !
- As seperate word:
See Search> !

Go to...> allows you fast movements in your text either by jumping
to a marker (see part 6.6.4, <EXTRAS>Set marker>) or by jumping to
a specified row. The direction is not important.

be called and inserted in your text by this menuitem any time and
as often as you want.

7. Mailmerge print
══════════════════
As mentioned above, you find the Mailmerge-Print behind the
menuitem <FILE>Mailmerge>. This mailmerge function is not only
working together with the special Export-databases of FW-ADRES, it
also works together with each dBASE III+ - compatible database.
This includes for example databases from CLIPPER, FoxBase, WamPum,
Topaz etc. At the position in your text where want to see later
on the content of a field from your database you have to place a
macro. This macro is the name of the database-field, surrounded
with the "et"-sign (&).
The following example will show you how to do it.

Picture 11: "Snapshot" of the desktop with a sample letter
───────────
From this sample letter you can immediately see some of the
important functions:
1. The macro-/field delimiter is the et-sign "&".
2. The macro/fieldname has to be surrounded on both sides with
this delimiter.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 41]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
3. The macroname is the field name of the corresponding
database. This has some benefits:
- You can easily access EACH field of the database.
- You can use each dBASE-III+ compatible database. If you
are not familiar with the structure of the database you can
use the menuitem <INSERT>Database field>. You will get
list of each field in the selected database. Simple click
on the field you want to see in your document. FW-TEXT
will place it for you at the current cursorposition
surrounded with the "&"-signs.
4. If you place your fields like "&name&", all spaces in the
field following the content will be deleted. For example
"Wolpers " will be printed as "Wolpers"
But if you type in "name&" with an additional "#", no
spaces will be deleted. For example
"Wolpers " remains during printout as "Wolpers "
This effect can be nice, if you have to print tables. In
this case you don't have to take care of spaces or tabs.
Spaces between parts of the field content will not be
deleted.
5. Please look at the macros "&seite&" and "&datum&". These are
the german words for page (seite) and date (datum). In any
document you can use this macros. "&seite&" adds at the
specific position a continous pagenumber. Its best to use
"&seite&" in headers or footers.
"&datum&" fills the date of the internal PC-clock or the
DOS-command DATE in your document during printout. If your
PC-clock works fine, you never have to be afraid of wrong
dates in your letters.
For the controlling of the mailmerge print you use filters, which
will be shown in a seperate window immediately after starting the
mailmerge print. Following filters are available:
FOR-clause : All datasets which are fullfilling this condition
will be printed.
WHILE-clause: As long as this condition is fullfilled, datasets
will be used for printing. If the condition is not
fullfilled, the printout will be stopped
immediately. Due to this reason, the WHILE filter
will only be used seldom. No dBASE-compatible
databased is sorted except it has been exported
exspecially for this mailmerge print.
Area : The next "x" datasets will be printed. "0" means all
datasets.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 42]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
But how to define a filter ? Now you are working as a CLIPPER
programmer. For clarifying some common problems we would like to
refer you to the following samples. All samples are using the
FOR-clause, which is used in 99 % of all cases according to our
own expierience. But before we are going to the samples we want
to introduce some basic functions:
TRIM(): deletes all rightmost spaces. "WOLPERS " will be
reduced to "WOLPERS".
LTRIM(): deletes all leftmost spaces. " WOLPERS" will be
reduced to "WOLPERS"
ALLTRIM(): deletes all left and right spaces. " WOLPERS "
will be redurced to "WOLPERS"
SUBSTR(): extracts a part from a word or sentence. the first
number defines the startposition, the second number the
number of characters to cut out.
Sample: The characters "unct" will be extracted from "Function"
with SUBSTR("Function",2,4).
SUBSTR() can also be used with database fields.
Sample: SUBSTR(name,1,2). If the database-field 'name' has the
content "Meyer", then the a.m. SUBSTR()-command
exracts "Me".
LEN(): Calculates the length of a database field or a string.
Bsp.: The content of the field 'name' (30 characters long)
is "Meyer". LEN(name) is equal to 30. But if you
enter LEN(TRIM(name)), then the result is 5.
VAL(): Makes a number out of a string. This numbers can than
be used for mathematical comparisons (bigger than,
smaller than etc.).
Bsp.: Content of the field 'ZIP' (a character-field) is
"3000". VAL(zip) results in the number (!) 3000.
UPPER(): Changes a string to uppercase.
Bsp.: Content of the field 'name' is "Meyer". UPPER(name)
results in "MEYER"
LOWER(): Same as UPPER(), except to lower case.
Bsp.: Content of the field 'name' is "Meyer". LOWER(name)
results in "meyer"
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 43]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
.AND.: Combines two or more clauses to an AND-condition. This
means that all clauses must be fullfilled. Otherwise
nothing will be printed.
.OR.: Combines two or more clauses to an OR-condition. This
means that at least one of the clauses must be
fullfilled. Otherwise nothing will be printed.
.NOT.: A dataset will be selected if the following condition
is NOT fullfilled.
So far so good, but now lets switch to the samples. First some
simple exercises:
No. 1: All datasets from tht ZIP-area 4.
No. 2: All datasets, where the name beginns with "M".
No. 3: All doctors (title = Dr.) in the database.
No. 4: No. 1 + No. 2, means all persons from ZIP-area 3, whose
names are starting with "M".
Here are the solutions:
No. 1: We are searching all datasets where the ZIP-code is
greater than (>) 2999 und smaller than (<) 4000 (old german
system !!). The filter clause now comes to:
for: VAL(zip)>2999 .AND. VAL(zip)<4000
Due to the reason that 'zip' in this sample is a
character-field, you can also extract and compare the first
digit from the 'zip'-field. So the filter clause comes to:
for: SUBSTR(zip,1,1) = "3"
No. 2: We are looking for all datasets, where first digit in the
field 'name' is a "M". Due to typing errors, this "M" can
be lowercase "m", or the field can start with a space. So
we should trim the field content and should convert
everything to uppercase. The filter clause comes now to:
for: UPPER(SUBSTR(LTRIM(name),1,1))="M"
No. 3: We are looking for all datasets, where the 'title'-field
contains the text "Doctor" or the abrevation "Dr.". In
order not to compare apples with cherries (see No. 2) we
are first converting everything to uppercase. Than we are
trimming the field-content. The "." behind "Dr." should be
left out, it's very easy to forget it while entering the
datas and we might miss some datasets. So the FOR clause
comes to:
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 44]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
for: UPPER(LTRIM(title))="DOCTOR" .OR.
UPPER(LTRIM(title))="DR"
zu 4: Explanation see 1/2. The first condition has to be put in
brackets, otherwise all clauses will be checked one after
another which will result in some strange results. The
complete condition now comes to:
for: (VAL(zip)>2999 .AND. VAL(zip)<4000)) .AND.
SUBSTR(LTRIM(name),1,1)="M"
--- OR ---
for: SUBSTR(zip,1,1)="3" .AND.
SUBSTR(LTRIM(name),1,1)="M"
Hopefully you have learned something from the sample above. In
any case, please check your SYNTAX carefully, don't forget any
commas, points (it is really .AND.) etc. but also don't add
unnecessary characters or signs.
Very importnat is alos not to make any typing mistakes. If
FW-TEXT finds an error in your conditions it might hangup and
leaves you back again on the DOS-level.

APPENDIX B: Textconverting with FWT-KONV V1.00 (only FULL-version)
───────────
FW-TEXT V4.51 will be extended with the programm FWT-KONV V1.00
which will be delivered to you free of charge. FWT-KONV converts
your FW-TEXT-files in a way, that they can be used with MS-WORD
and WordStar. Furthermore you can produce a pure ASCII-file.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 47]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
To start FWT-KONV, please enter on the DOS-level the following
command:
FWT-KONV file.ext [<─┘]
{file} is the name of your file (max. 8 characters), {ext} is the
extension to your filename (max 3 characters). Please enter
allways full filenames, pathnames before the filename are not
allowed. Please make shure that you are only converting
FW-TEXT-documentfiles. FWT-KONV can identify different types of
files only by their extension. Systemfiles (identified by
extensions EXE, COM, BAT, SYS, etc.) are automatically rejected.
Furthermore your files can only be converted if they are not
bigger tahn 65.520 bytes. Bigger textfiles should be splitted
inside FW-TEXT in smaller textparts. This way is a little bid
complicated, but their is no other way in the moment with CLIPPER.
Due to the deletion or exchange of controlcodes, most of the
files have a differnt size after the conversion than the FW-TEXT
original (mostly smaller). FWT-KONV is capable of converting some
of the control codes to MS-Word or WordStar. The best results
will be receivied with WordStar.
APPENDIX C: Conclusion
───────────
Certainly I'm allways working on my programs, trying to extend
their features and fix possible bugs. All registered users will
be informed automatically if an update is available.
If you wishes or ideas for new features, you are heartly wellcome
to write a letter and inform us about them. We will try to
include this ideas - if possible - in new versions of FW-TEXT.
APPENDIX D: History
───────────
FW-TEXT was written due to a complete modification of all of my
programs. It started as a "rest" of the former program "DAS
BÜRO", an office program including also a complete adress-handling
part.
One of the aims was the development of an easy to use program with
most of the features, which will be used from a commercial
textprocessing system. Simple programhandling as well as a
complete but not to big scope of features was the target.
[FW-TEXT V4.50, User's manual Page 48]
[(C) Dipl.Ing. Frank Wolpers, 1993 ]
- 1.75 Last version of DAS BÜRO
The first version of FW-TEXT follows immeditaly:
- 1.00 First release of FW-TEXT.
Since than several new version followed:
- 1.01 First FULL-version of FW-TEXT.
- 1.02 Introduction of a first-time installation routine. Some
small bugs fixed.
- 1.03 Introduction of different printerdrivers.
- 1.10 Final solving of a window-bug with self programmed
window-routines instead of using third-party libraries.
- 2.00 Introduction of the mailmerge function. Additional
printerdrivers, which are now compatible with the ones
from FW-ADRES.
- 2.02 Old FULL-version.
- 3.01 Extremly extended new version with several new
functions.
- 4.01/2 Old FULL-version.
- 4.50 New menustructure. Several new functions. Menustructure
now similar to MS-WORD 5.5.
