WELCOME TO WINEDIT 2000 WinEdit is the Windows Editor that you can use to edit virtually any text file. A >very< souped up version of Windows Notepad. It is specifically designed to be a programmer's editor, and can execute compilers and check for error messages. It also includes a powerful macro language. HOW TO INSTALL WINEDIT Use our SETUP.EXE program, which will copy the files for you and install a WINEDIT group in the Program Manager or Win95 Start Menu. To use our SETUP.EXE program... 1) Close down all extraneous Windows applications. 2) Double-Click on the SETUP.EXE program 3) When the setup program asks for a directory, specify initial directory, or accept the given default. ---------------------------- What's New in WinEdit 2000 ---------------------------- Spelling checker ---------------- On the Edit menu. Additional dictionaries will be available soon. Context menu improvements -------------------------- Each file type can have its own popup menu definition. View.Options.FileTypes.Context menu for this file type. Right-click on workbook tab brings up context menu. Built in FTP client ------------------- You can now choose FTP Open or FTP Save from the File menu to open and save files on remote systems. WE_FTP.exe is a standalone FTP program that knows how to communicate back and forth with WinEdit. New HTML Viewer --------------- We're including a customized version of Internet Explorer that knows how to communicate with WinEdit. Choose "Edit.In WinEdit Explorer" (or right click and choose it from the context menu) and the current file will be rendered in WinEdit Explorer. No need to save the file first, which makes for a great preview capability. Better Java support ------------------- No more fighting with RUNJAVA.BAT. Choose Compile, Run Java Applet, or Run Java Application directly from the right-click context menu. If an HTML wrapper file is already available in the source file directory you can use that to test the applet, otherwise WinEdit will construct a simple HTML wrapper and launch it in WinEdit Explorer. Improved HTML support --------------------- The syntax coloring for HTML files is much improved. Also the HTMLPopup.mnu has a new set of tags that can be inserted as you are coding. The tag insert will honor any selection you have, so for example you can highlight a word, choose the 'Bold' tag, and the highlighted word will be bracketed with the proper format. New macro functions ------------------- In the Macros subdirectory, look at testnew.wbt to see a demonstration of the new macro functions. Debugging Improvements ---------------------- With previous releases, if you were debugging a script that inserted text, the text was inserted into the window of the script being debugged. Obviously not a great convenience. Now, WinEdit will remember which window is the target of your macro command, and always switch to that window before stepping or running. The following information may be found below: a) Information on our fully functional demos and our "Registration Reminder" screens. b) A basic, concise explanation of our disclaimers. c) Installation instructions for our automated installation program. There is also a section on manual installation. This might be useful for automating many large site installations. d) Generic uninstall instructions. e) Our update policy. f) On-line support. g) The long, drawn out legalese section, software license information, limited warranty, trademarks, etc. h) Information on other products that we offer. i) Ordering information. j) How to find the Order Form. REGISTRATION REMINDERS Unlicensed copies of WinEdit Software Co. products are 100% fully functional. We make them this way so that you can have a real look at them, and then decide whether they fit your needs or not. Our entire business depends on your honesty. If you use it, we expect you to pay for it. We feel that if we treat you well, you will treat us well. Unlicensed copies of our products do have a registration reminder screen that appears whenever you start the program. This shouldn't really affect your evaluation of our software. We're sure that once you see the incredible quality of our software, you will dig out your credit card, pick up the phone, call the nice people at our 800 number and register the software. If you work for a large corporation, you can purchase most of our products the same way you buy your retail software. Just send the purchase request up the line. Most all the corporate software suppliers (Egghead Corporate, Software Spectrum, Corporate Software, Programmers Shop, and many others) purchase considerable volumes from us on a regular basis. When you pay for the software you like, you are voting with your pocketbook, and will encourage us to bring you more of the same kinds of products. Pay for what you like, and then, more of what you like will almost magically become available. LEGAL MATTERS Of course the usual disclaimers still apply. We are not responsible for anything at all. Nothing. Even if we are held responsible, the limit of our liability is the licensing fees you paid. The full text of our license agreement is found near the bottom of this file. HOW TO INSTALL THIS SOFTWARE Use our snazzy setup program... 1) Close down all extraneous Windows applications. (You do have to be in Windows to run SETUP.EXE) 2) Double-Click on the SETUP.EXE or use the Software install facility (if available) in Control Panel. 3) When the setup program asks for a directory, specify an initial directory, or accept the given default. 4) When the screen comes up that asks you what you want to install, do your selections, then hit the NEXT button to continue. UN-INSTALL INFORMATION This software may be uninstalled via the uninstall option in the Control Panel Add/Remove software dialog, or by running the uninstal.exe program in the WinEdit directory. If you simply delete all the files first, you will not be able to run the uninstall program and there may still be traces of the program in various places on the system. UPDATE POLICY WinEdit Software Co. frequently updates its products. There are various kinds of updates, including Major updates, Minor updates, and bug-fix updates. Minor and bug-fix updates for our shareware products are free - - subject only to our reasonable shipping and handling charges for disks. As we are not in the disk selling business, you may find that shareware vendors specializing in disk sales can easily sell disks cheaper than we can. On the other hand, we *always* have the most recent versions of our software. Our shipping and handling charges for update disks are as follows: 10.00 US and Canada for the first product. 5.00 US and Canada for each additional product. 9.50 Surcharge for shipping outside of US and Canada. If you obtain a minor or bug-fix update from our Web site (http://www.winedit.com ) or other online service, a BBS, a shareware disk vendor or from another source, there is no charge from us (of course you will have to pay the on-line service fees for your ISP, disk vendors fees, or at least pay your phone bill for downloading from a BBS). In addition, you may use a single set of disks to perform minor or bug-fix updates on any number of copies of a product. The policy and pricing for Major shareware updates vary. Depending on the nature of the upgrade, length of time since the previous major upgrade, desirability of new features added, the extent of revisions to the printed manuals (if any), work involved and possible price changes for new users, we may or may not charge fees. Update fees for major updates tend to run 20% to 40% of the cost of the product. Major updates tend to occur every few years. ON-LINE SUPPORT WinEdit Software Co. has extensive on-line support. We maintain a World Wide Web Server and an anonymous ftp site WinEdit Home Page http://www.winedit.com Main Support Page http://www.winedit.com/support.html FTP site ftp.winedit.com Our WebBBS -- where you can post questions and code -- is available via a link from our Main Support page.
