- a. Foreword
-
- Concerning horizontal slider, I think on it strongly and it will be for the
- 1.45 version (I must remake Joe text memory management), and also
- the users suggestions I had not time to code.
- I would have written more modules but I have no time. T'will be for the next
- version (I must finish the <TABLE> tag generator).

- - Extension of text macros :
- "Return" can be done with using "|" in the text string.
- A macro can be linked to a text file of the library : *.HTM (LF+CR at every
- line even the last) or *.STG (C string format). The *.HTM file is inserted
- like a merge, and the *.STG file like a normal macro.
- To link the macro to the file : double clic or "#"+filename.
- IMPORTANT : All these files must be in the library.
-
- - Modules (detemine their path). these modules can run independantly,
- or, plus, be used with another HTML edition program if it respects the
- exchange protocol
