- Scripto is a program for building cursive writing from text. To run scripto,
- the file scripto.set must be in the current directory. You may run scripto
- interactively by starting the program and entering any readable text. The
- cursive equivalent will appear on the screen. Of course, input and output may
- be redirected so it is possible to type cursive to disk by running this way:
- "scripto >cursive.txt" or disk to disk using "scripto <input.txt >output.txt"
- or to printer with "scripto >prn" (note: when writing to printer - dot matrix
- only - compressed mode is recommended).
-
- If you wish, you may add or change the "font" dataset: scripto.set. After
- looking at a few examples, it should become obvious how a font is stored.
- Each character uses the same number of lines. The "@" sometimes found on the
- "base" line marks where the next cursive letter would be written. It is a
- primitive form of proportional spacing.
-
- Enjoy!
