GETTING STARTED The instructions in this User's Guide are for a computer with two disk drives. If your computer has only one disk drive, just change disks when your computer tells you to. If you have a hard disk, modify the instructions as appropriate. Whenever this User's Guide says "B:", substitute "C:" (and a subdirectory name, if necessary). The notation means that you should press the Enter key after you type the command. The Esc key is the universal cancel key; use it to cancel Word Fugue commands. If you have only one disk drive, you should load the program, then change the disk to the data disk. Word Fugue is a memory editor, so it loads all the file into memory. However, you will need to copy the overlay file (WF.OVR) and your chosen Printer Definition File (????.PDF) to the data disk. If you need help, you will have to copy the help file (WF.HLP) from the program disk, or swap to the program disk, before you press the Help key. Checking spelling can also be done by swapping to the dictionary disk before you start checking spelling. Remember to swap back to the data disk before you save your file. .tc Backup Your Disks ...................................# Backup Your Disks .lm3 Word Fugue comes on two disks. Look at the file READ.ME on the Word Fugue program disk for any last minute changes. To make backup Word Fugue disks: 1. Format two blank disks with the DOS FORMAT command. 2. Place the original Word Fugue program disk in drive A, and the new, formatted disk in drive B. Copy all the original Word Fugue files to the new disk by typing at the DOS prompt: COPY *.* B: 3. Place the Word Fugue dictionary disk in drive A, and a new formatted dosk in drive B. Copy the original files to the new disk by typing at the Dos Prompt COPY *.* B: 4. Label the backup disks and store the originals in a safe place. .tc Install on Floppy Disk ..............................# Install On Floppy Disk .lm3 The disks are organized so that you can run the program on a floppy system. If you have 2 floppy disks, you will have to swap disks if you want to utilize the spelling checker, since the dictionary requires a disk of its own. You should write your text files to drive B, and put the dictionary in drive A when you want to utilize it. The Overlay file is on both disks, so you can do this. If you have only one floppy disk, you will need a data disk with the overlay file (WF.OVR) on it, and the printer definition file (???.PDF) on it, and swap this disk in whenever you want to save the file or print it. (It must be saved to print). Since Word Fugue works on the file in memory, once you have read in the file, you can swap the data disk out and either the dictionary disk or the system disk back in. You may wish to configure your program to make it easier for you to use. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information on this. .tc Install on Hard Disk ................................# Install On Hard Disk .lm3 To make a working directory on a hard disk: 1. Choose a directory to be your Word Fugue working directory. MD C:\dirname CD C:\dirname 2. Put the Word Fugue backup program disk in drive A. At the DOS prompt, type: COPY A:*.* C: 3. Put the word Fugue dictionary disk into drive A. At the DOS prompt, type: COPY *.* C: You may wish to configure your program to make it easier for you to use. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information on this. .TC About Word Fugue.....................................# About Word Fugue As you edit, the top line of the screen normally displays the Status Line. It looks like this: Z *MANUAL.DOC 53% Line 40 Col 37 Page 5 Ins Indent Wrap Just Cols P Not all the fields will appear. Z only shows if this window is Zoomed - that is, it is set to cover the entire screen,,regardless of the number of windows open. MANUAL.DOC This is the name of the file you are editing. You will not see MANUAL.DOC unless you are editing a file called that. * This only shows if the file has been modified. Ins This shows that you are in INsert mode. Ovr This shows when you are in overwrite mode. Wrap This indicates that Word Wrap is on. Text you Para type will be wrapped around to the next line when you type beyond the boundaries of the current line. If blank, the line will not wrap unless you press return. If it shows PARA then the text will automatically reformat as you type, while if it shows WRAP, you will have to use the paragraph reformat command if you wish to have the paragraph reformated. Just This shows that the text you are typing will be right justified, that is the right hand side will line up with the right margin, and extra spaces will be inserted to make the margins even. This paragraph is an example of Right Justification, while all the other paragraphs are not justified. If JUST does not show then text will not be justified when it is wrapped or reformatted. Page This indicates the page number of the document you are processing. It will not show unless pagination is on (refer to Page Breaks). When Page breaks are on, the line number shown is the line number with9in the page, otherwise it is the line number from the start of the file. Cols This shows whether or not you are in Column Mode or C Rep Column replace mode. Refer to Column mo9de for more information. If Word Fugue needs information from you, it prompts you on the Top Line. The information you provide is the response. Prompts appear in response to certain editing commands: o Some prompts require that you press a single key. o For other prompts, you respond by typing a file name or other text. The first time most prompts of this type appear, there is a blank response. When you change the response, it stays in the computer's memory until you change it again or exit the edit program. There are three ways to respond to this kind of prompt: o You can press the Enter key to use the current response if there is one. o You can type a new response, then press Enter. The cursor is located at the first character of the current response; as you begin to type, the current response disappears. Press the Enter key when you are done typing. o You can edit the current response. Move the cursor past the first character in and begin to edit, or delete the first character with the Del key, then edit. Press Enter when you're done. You can enter editing commands directly from the keyboard, or use one of Word Fugue's menus to help you. There are eight menus. To bring up the Main Menu: o Press Shift and function key F1 You will see the 3rd line change color, and the word Block will be hilighted. It will stand out from the rest To bring up the Second Level Menu: o Press the letter corresponding to the Capital letter in the keyword or use the arrow keys to hi-light the keyword, and press enter .PA To select an option from one of the pulldown menus: o Press the letter corresponding to the Capital letter in the keyword or use the arrow keys to hi-light the keyword, and press enter To return to the previous level Menu: o Press Esc. To access the Help screens: o Press F1 once. o Press H twice o Move through the help screens by means of the PgUp and PgDn keys. To return to the previous level, press Esc. You perform most of the Word Fugue editing commands by pressing combinations or sequences of keys. If a command requires a combination of keys, they are shown in this manual as a unit. For instance, Ctl F1 means you press the Ctl key and hold it while you press the F1 key. If a command requires a sequence of keys, they are shown in this manual following each other. For instance, Ctl Q then R means that you press the Ctl key and hold it while pressing the Q key, let it up, then press the R key. Word Fugue edits entirely in memory. This makes for fast processing, but it can restrict you if you have only a small amount of memory. You can edit as large a file as will fit in memory, and this has advantages if your disk becomes too full. To save a file when the disk is full: 1. Remove the full disk and replace it with one that has enough room. 2. Try the save again.
