- On Issue #14 in the Comal Corner
-
- section, a program LK.TEXTMAKER had a
-
- bug. The corrected version is on
-
- Side 2 of this disk. It is SAVEd
-
- under the name of (LK.TEXTMAKER).
-
- LK.TEXTMAKER is used to make normal
-
- text files out of LISTed Comal
-
- programs. To use the program, do the
-
- following:
-
- 1. Write a Comal "program" using
- only text and comments (REMs in
- BASIC, but // in Comal). The
- text will look something like
- this:
-
- 0010 // This is text.
- 0020 // This is more text.
- 0030 //
- 0040 //Dear Mr. Longfellow,
-
- 2. LIST the program of text to disk.
- (ex. LIST "TEXT.FILE")
-
- 3. ENTER "LK.TEXTMAKER" and then
- RUN
-
- 5. Specify the correct filenames.
- The INPUT file is the name of the
- file you LISTed earlier. The
- OUTPUT file is the name of the
- file that is to contain only the
- text.
-
- 6. LK.TEXTMAKER will now strip out
- all of the line numbers and
- slashes. This will leave just
- the text in the OUTPUT file.
-
-
- Now for one more glitch this month.
-
- It seems that the STEINMAN SPREADSHEET
-
- on Issue #15 has a slight bug.
-
- STEINMAN operates fine until you SAVE
-
- a file and then attempt to LOAD it
-
- back in. It seems that the program
-
- is unable to determine the size of
-
- your saved spreadsheet. By running
-
- the program FILE FIX.1XC (which is on
-
- SIDE 2 of this disk), you can correct
-
- any files that have been SAVEd with
-
- the bugged version of STEINMAN.
