Using the Editor


Old wordstar users ( Old users ( old Wordstar too ) ) will find that many
editor commands work as they expect.  Users of DOS Borland Pascal,  C and C++
will also find the editor familiar.  This is because the editor is the
Borland Turbo Vision TEditor.  The editor commands are below.

Mouse dragging can be used to highlight text.  Use the old Wordstar key
presses if you prefer them.

The mouse can be used to scroll,  re-size,  close and zoom the window between
small and full size.  These options are obtained as follows ...

Resize	Use the mouse to drag the  shape at the bottom right of the window.
Zoom	Click the mouse on the  shape at the top right of the window.
Close	Click the mouse on the  shape at the top left of the window.
Scroll	Use the scroll bars.

NOTE:	The FILE | SAVE AS option,  normally available,  has been disabled.
	This is to keep the BKG and TIM files synchronised.  You can
	use FILE | SAVE AS with timetables.  This saves both the TIM and
	BKG files under a new name.
