-
- CHIWRITER is a scientific/multifont word processor supporting up to 10 fonts
- and 250 super/subscript levels per line. It is truly "what you see is what
- you get" and extremely easy to use. It works with a variety of printers and
- can produce both fast draft and high resolution printing.
-
- The CHIWRITER program on this disk is identical with a 1985 commercial
- release version, except for the "commercial message" which is shown at the
- beginning and periodically during operation. It is NOT the newest version
- of CHIWRITER.
-
- Version 2.00 was released in August 1986. It has numerous enhancements,
- including proportional spacing, much more efficient memory usage and
- faster operations. The word processing performance has been much improved
- as well, with new powerful commands and features, including footnoting.
- Printing has been speeded up by using the fonts built into each printer as
- much as possible.
-
- THE CHIWRITER PIRATEWARE IS PROVIDED TO YOU "AS IS".
- HORSTMANN SOFTWARE DESIGN DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PROGRAM
- RUNS ERROR-FREE OR UNITERRUPTED OR AS DESCRIBED IN THE
- DOCUMENTATION. HORSTMANN SOFTWARE DESIGN DISCLAIMS ALL

- ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR ANY
- PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND ALL OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES,

- This system comes set up for the IBM Graphics board and the EPSON MX 80 or
- compatible printer. CHIWRITER does not work with an IBM monochrome board.

- contains drivers for a few popular printers, whereas the regular version
- includes support for many more low-cost printers (contact us for most recent
- list).
-
- To start the editor, type
-
- CW <filename>

- The default filename extension is .CHI. The default drive is A:. If you need
- to override these defaults, specify explicit extensions, drive and path names.
- You should go through the lesson on TUTORIAL.CHI to become acquainted with the
- editing commands. Only the commands essential to get you started are
- introduced there. Most commands work under more general circumstances than
- described in the tutorial. Experiment for best results, or buy the real thing
- and read the manual.
