- This file contains some notes on using Flipper with WordPerfect.
- WordPerfect's menu and status line is line 25. Flipper
- can be set to watch line 25, and read it if it changes, or if
- you prefer, you can define an alt number key to read it
- whenever you want.
-
- The file wp5.tab is an example of a file that you can
- use to replace help.tab. The function keys during the
- help mode will then act as a quick reference template
- for wordperfect version 5.0.
-
- When using WordPerfect's spelling checker, you should turn on
- forced inverse video cursor, and then Flipper will track the
- misspelled word in context.
-
- To have Flipper monitor line 25 and read it when it changes,
- press backslash, then answer line 25, and then 1 and 20 for the
- left and right sides. This sets flipper to watch that area, and
- it will beep if it changes. To have it read the line rather than
- just beep, press d, for define, then the backslash key, and answer
- 25, 25, 1, 80, to read line 25 from beginning to end. Next, turn off
- the beep, which is on toggle key shift function key 5, and turn on
- shift function key 6, telling Flipper to read the defined area when
- it sees the change. You should leave the block option off in the
- secondary set so that you can use alt f to turn it off when you are
- typing at a prompt on line 25.
