 Command:  Options/Loom                           < OL > 
 Purpose:  Menu--Provide access to Computer-Aided-Weaving 
 Information:
     This is the door to connecting a loom to the computer.
 Comments:
     Simulation mode provides an alternate pattern creation 
     technique usable by those without a loom connection.

 Command:  Options/Data                           < OD > 
 Purpose:  Menu--Data switches for display and printing
 Information:
     Data switches affect not only displays and printouts but the 
     Editors as well.

     Version 4.1 includes weave data in graphics printouts.

     The status of all switches is saved with every weaving.
 Comments:
     Data switches have no affect on display graphics.

 Command:  Options/Title Line                    < OT > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control inclusion of Title Line   
 Information:
     This switch causes the current title line to display or 
     print above or below the pattern draft in text mode. 

     Title Lines also print with graphics.

     Options/Format determines the position of the Title Line.
 Comments:
     Use Edit/Symbols/Title Line to write the Title.

     The Title Line is saved automatically whenever you save a 
     weaving.

 Command:  Options/Note Print                    < ON > 
 Purpose:  SWITCH--Control printing of .PNF note file
 Information:
     This feature allows you to print detailed information 
     about a weaving along with the pattern draft.

     With the switch ON, Patternland looks on the current 
     weaving directory for a file whose prefix matches the 
     current weaving filename and whose suffix is ".PNF" for 
     Patternland Note File.  If such a file exists, Patternland 
     prints it after printing the weaving.  
     
     Options/Format has no affect. 
 Comments:
     The current weaving filename is shown on Setup/View.

     You can use File/Write to create a note file with the .PNF 
     suffix. 

     There is no size limit to the note file that can print, 
     however File/Read is limited to 300 lines.

     You will need to edit your note files with a word processor 
     which creates "pure" ASCII files:  PC-Write, Wordstar in 
     non-document mode, or Borland's Sidekick all work well.

 Command:  Options/Format                        < OF > 
 Purpose:  Select one of four possible data formats
 Information:
     The format determines whether the threading and other warp 
     data are above or below the pattern draft, and whether weft 
     data is positioned to the left or right. 

     Options/Format also determines the positioning of the 
     Editor Windows and the placement of the number lines within 
     those windows.
 Comments:
     Four formats are possible, numbered 1 to 4.

 Command:  Options/Graphpaper                    < OG > 
 Purpose:  MENU--Select and control graphics mode graphpaper
 Information:
     With Version 4.1, graphpaper background is available for 
     graphics modes with all printers as well as in text mode 
     for dot matrix printers.  This menu provides control for the 
     graphics mode graphpaper only (text mode graphpaper is 
     created in 10 cpi and 10 lpi only).

     24-pin printers can use an alternative automatic spacing for 
     grid lines: see Options/Graphpaper/Bold Mag Horizontal. 
 Comments:
     By controlling the graphpaper spacing, you can fine tune 
     the overall spacing of the pattern draft.

 Command:  Options/Modes                         < OM > 
 Purpose:  MENU--Select warp-face or weft-face weaving
 Information:
     Warp-face and weft-face modes combine several thread's 
     pattern together to create one apparent "packed" pattern 
     created by the colors of the column or row.
     
     To show varying color-generated pattern, either multi-symbol 
     or multi-color mode must be ON.  Thus, graphics printouts 
     are possible only with a color printer.
 Comments:
     Because several warp or weft threads pack together, no data 
     presentation is possible.  Turn these switches OFF to print 
     an "unpacked" pattern draft with data.

 Command:  Options/Create Tabby                  < OC > 
 Purpose:  Insert a tabby treadling into existing weft 
 Information: 
     This feature is of most use to weavers with a loom 
     interface, since the computer file must contain each row to 
     be woven. 

     To use the feature, first tie up two tabby treadles with the 
     harnesses you need for the tabby. 

     When you select this option, tell Patternland the range of 
     rows to insert tabby for.  If you select 1 to the last 
     thread, Tabby A will become thread 1.  If you select 2 to 
     the last thread, the tabby will begin as thread 2, etc. 
 Comments: 
     Because the tabby becomes part of the weaving, tabby rows 
     are counted as part of the maximum 800 weft rows allowed.  
     Thus if you plan to insert a tabby, you can have up to 400 
     pattern rows.

 Command:  Options/Heddle Count                  < OH > 
 Purpose:  Display a count of heddles, colors, and symbols.
 Information: 
     This feature presents a screen showing the number of 
     threads assigned to each possible harness, 1 to 32.  This 
     is the count of heddles needed for each harness.

     It also shows the number of threads assigned to each of the  
     16 possible colors and symbols for both warp and weft.
 Comments: 
     Press the Print Screen key for a printout of the report.
     (Older keyboards: press Shift PrtScr.)
