Instructions for "The Ultimate Ansi Editor V1.10(BETA)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* * Introduction and Purpose * *
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After growing very tired of it being nearly impossible to
|
|||
|
create multi page ansi documents with most avaiable ansi
|
|||
|
editors, and none of them supporting WWIVAnsi, I decided to
|
|||
|
write a ansi editor that would include everything.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the beta test version it contains hardly everything,
|
|||
|
but rather only the parts which I considered the most
|
|||
|
challenging to program, namely the scrolling ansi buffer and
|
|||
|
the ANSI and WWIV ansi interruption. At this point the
|
|||
|
program is exactly one week old, and during the next week I
|
|||
|
will be adding such things as cut and paste, and more support
|
|||
|
for the way WWIV stores its ansi files(ie B&W, ANS,MSG).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Installation
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Unlike most ansi editors you absolutely do not have to
|
|||
|
have your ANSI.SYS file installed. The program understands
|
|||
|
ANSI and WWIVansi with out any external help.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Running the program.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Once executed you will see two title screens, then you will
|
|||
|
enter the main program. Once inside the program you will be
|
|||
|
able to move the hi-lighted part of the top bar and select
|
|||
|
several pull down windows(NOTE: Mouse support is not setup
|
|||
|
yet, as well as a few of the items on the top bar). To begin
|
|||
|
drawing simply hit your escape key and you will be in drawing
|
|||
|
mode. Hitting your escape key again brings you right back to
|
|||
|
the top bar control. Use your escape key to toggle between
|
|||
|
these two modes.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Commands:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
ALT-F: Change the color you are drawing with
|
|||
|
ALT-B: Change the current background color
|
|||
|
ALT-L: Load an ANSI or WWIVansi graphic
|
|||
|
ALT-S: Save from beginning to current location
|
|||
|
ALT-H: On-Line Help
|
|||
|
ALT-C: Clear screen, and start over
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<F1-F8> Display Graphic Characters
|
|||
|
<F9-F10> Select Graphics Set
