NTS - NOTES Version 1.1 Documentation ---------------- Author: Rob Friefeld Version: 1.1 Date: September 25, 1991 Systems: Z3PLUS, ZCPR3.0+ with Extended TCAP NTS is the same basic program as NT 4.6 except that a full screen editor has been substituted for NT's line editor. The NTS editor is limited in function, consistent with NTS's limited aspirations. It does include right margin set, word wrap, and rudimentary reformat to new margins (as long as you don't get too fancy). USAGE: NTS [DIR:][FILE][.TYP] [/D] Save note to specified file. If the file already exists, the text entered will be appended to it. If the file extension is omitted, a default type is automatically inserted. If no file is specified on the command line, NTS will prompt the user for a filespec on exit. If no filename is given, a default file name, drive, and user area are used for output [these are configurable]. Version 1.1 adds a configuration option to disable the "File: " prompt on exit. If no file name is given on invocation, then the default output file name is automatically used. NT 4.6 has this feature. IMPORTANT: A filename with a blank .TYP cannot be opened by NT unless the default file type has been patched to ' '. (Such a file would have been created with another program.) The "/D" command line option omits the Date and separator from notes. Any text appended to a file will start on the next line. PATCHES: ZCNFG.COM, available publicly at no charge, is highly recommended. Put ZCNFG and NTS.CFG in the same drive and user area and type ZCNFG NTS ZCNFG will guide you through a menu-driven installation session, including online help.
