The control has these useful features... ...handles lines up to 64K in size. ...can handle a practically unlimited (2,147,483,647) number of lines. ...supports line and column blocks as well as stream blocks. ...supports fixed as well as proportional fonts. ...can automatically load and save whole files. ...multi-level Undo/Redo ...built-in Search/Replace functionality ...drag and drop text selections ...user definable margins around the text ...can be programmed/controlled from Visual Basic/C++. The control comes with integrated online help and a sample program. Unlicensed copies of the Early Morning Editor Control are 100% fully functional so that you can thoroughly evaluate it. Unlicensed copies also have a nag screen that appears at most once whenever the control is loaded into memory and an instance of the control is created, this shouldn't affect your ability to evaluate the control. The registered version of the control is the same as the unregistered version but has no nag screen. Registration is $30. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// The Early Morning Editor requires Windows >=3.0 and is compatible with Visual Basic >= 1.0. DISTRIBUTING THE CONTROL /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// You may freely distribute EMEDIT.VBX with applications that you build with the editor control, there are no run-time royalties of any kind. You may build and distribute applications with an unregistered control, however the VBX will display nag screens. Registering the VBX gets rid of the nag screens. The registered version of the VBX comes with a licence file (emedit.lic) that may not be distributed. If you have built an application with an unregistered VBX then when you get the registered VBX you should go into Visual Basic and then open and save every form that has an editor control on it, doing this prevents nag screens from being displayed when the application is run since the editor controls on a form remember if they were instantiated at design time by a registered or unregistered VBX. REGISTRATION/ORDERING INFORMATION //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Unlicensed copies of the Early Morning Editor Control are 100% fully functional so that you can thoroughly evaluate it. Unlicensed copies also have a nag screen that appears at most once whenever the control is loaded into memory and an instance of the control is created, this shouldn't affect your ability to evaluate the control. The registered version of the control is the same as the unregistered version but has no nag screen. In addition to registered copies of the control, the C++ source code to the control may also be ordered. The source code requires Borland C++ 4.0, Microsoft source is not available. The source code is supplied as is and is not supported in any way. If you are going to order the source code then you should probably also order the registered version of the control but it is not strictly necessary. The control determines if it is registered by looking in the directory from which it was loaded for the presence of a valid license file. The license is only distributed with the registered version of the control, without the registered control you will not be able to use the source without modifying it yourself to disable the nag screens. In order to build the control from the source you must also have a copy of vbapi.lib (it comes with the Visual Basic Professional Edition, for instance). PRICES... Registered copies of the Early Morning Editor Control.....$30. Borland C++ Source Code...................................$30. Shipping and Handling in US and Canada is $4, elsewhere is $6.
