[v1.4] [v1.3b] [v1.3a] [v1.3] [v1.2] [v1.1] [v1.0]
Version 1.3 Command and Feature Updates
1. Added pop-up Status Bar to show all active markers in document. Status Bar pops-up whenever a change is made to any of ^KB, ^KK, or ^K1 ~ ^K0, or when ^KH is used to 'show' markers.
2. ^P0 now set to display Windows Character Map with currently active font showing as the default and character table selected. Original Symbol Dialog available under Insert > Symbol Menu item or from ^PE. Character Map requires normal Windows commands to copy character to the clipboard from where WordStar commands can be used to paste it into the document.
3. ^PE assigned to display Symbol and Special Character dialog.
4. Changed ^J from duplicating Word's F1 Help function. ^J now used with K, O, P, or Q to display WordStar Help dialogs.
5. Added ^QH, Go To Character - Backwards.
6. ^L Repeat find modified to accomodate ^QH go to character backwards.
7. Added ^Q,DEL - Delete to start of line.
8. Added ^Q. - Non-WordStar but requested Delete to End of Sentence.
9. Added ^Q+END - Non-WordStar but requested Delete to End of Paragraph. Leaves paragraph mark intact.
10. Added Print Commands Help dialog, accessible from Help Menu, or ^JP.
Bug Fixes v1.3
Corrected Availible/Unavailable items in help dialogs.
Bug fixes V1.3a
Fixed problem inherent in Word 97/2000 where Word cannot find document to open if an Add-In uses an AutoExec macro and Word is started by double- clicking a document in Explorer. This workaround constituted version 1.3a.
Bug fixes v1.3b
Broken ALT+Key access to some menu items fixed. These became broken in attempts to keep useful Word/Windows CTRL+Key commands by reassigning CTRL to ALT. This has also meant that one menu item's shortcut letter key has had to change as well. Changes are as follows:
- ALT+V was assigned to EditPaste in place of Windows CTRL+V - now put back to open View menu.
- ALT+S was assigned to FileSaveAs - now reassigned to open Style menu. WordStar's CTRL+K,T was already assigned.
- Table menu accelerator key changed from ALT+B to ALT+T. ALT+B is considered more useful as a replacement for Word's CTRL+B, Bold on/off.
Version 1.2 Commands updates
Added ^OD to toggle print commands (tab leaders, spaces, Paragraph symbols ON/OFF. Continue to use ^KH to show/hide the Block Marker 'bookmarks'.
[v1.3]
