-
- IdeaBook is public domain (Remember: IdeaList is Shareware!).
- It may be copied and used by everyone. The condition is to copy the COMPLETE
- and UNCHANGED contents of the folder IDEABOOK.
-
- These are the files:
- IDEABOOK.PRG
- IDEABOOK.RSC
- IDEABOOK.TXT
-
- IdeaBook is a tool in addition to IdeaList, that can be launched as a kind
- of module but also runs as "stand alone".
-
- IdeaBook imports textfiles and sorts it in a way page by page, IdeaList can
- print in a book-like order. Also it adds head-lines and foot-lines.
-
- If launched by IdeaList, IdeaBook gets its important parameters handled
- over. In this case you only have to set the head-line and footline (if
- wished) and the mode of sorting.
-
- If started manually you have to set the two sliders in the same way IdeaList
- shows in the info line of the parameter's window.
-
- The options of the head-line and foot-line are quite similar to the
- corresponding dialogs in IdeaList.
-
- There are two modes of sorting the pages:
- - "Sheet" means that every sheet (containing tow pages at the front and two
- pages at the back) is folded midwise and stacked one above another.
- - "Booklet" means that the folded sheets are put one in another.
-
- Of course IdeaBook dos not overwrite the source file but creates a new one
- for the formatted output. Either a file with the source file's name but the
- extension BOK; or SCRAP.TXT at the system clipboard.
-
- If wished IdeaBooks ignores formfeed markers. Otherwise a new page is
- started every time a formfeed character occurs.
-
- You can abort the work by klicking the window closer button or the selected
- "Start" button. IdeaBook completely works in the background and does not
- block other processes.
