Welcome To Inspire!
This is the first public release of Inspire!, currently at version
1.20. We hope you take the time to look at Inspire!, and see its
possibilities. Inspire! is just beginning its journey as a text editor.
Already, It has some features that no other text editor has. Registering
Inspire! is more like an investment. You see, Inspire! is the most
configurable text editor ever. We will use the input of those who
register to update Inspire! into the best text editor ever to exist.
The registered version is the same as the demo, except that you may
save and print; it also comes with a complete manual. To register Inspire!,
print out Register.form that comes with the archive by running the file
PrintRegisterForm, then fill the form in. Include the correct amount of
money and mail it to the address on the form. We will ship Inspire! within
three working days of the arrival of the registration request.
Key features of Inspire!
* Uses new features of AmigaDOS Release 2 extensively
Inspire! uses the ASL requester for font and file selection and
uses the gadtools.library for standardized gadgets. Also, the
display database is used so that you may open any type of screen
that your computer is capable of.
* Turbo Loading and Saving of Files
Files will load and save very fast using a speed up buffer,
however, if you're low on memory, this function can be disabled.
* Printing task works in the background while you edit
You no longer have to wait for your printer to finish in order for
you to get back to editing your file. A storage buffer is used
to print from, which can also be disabled if you are low on
memory.
* Flexible multiple window handling
You can select the previous and next windows via menu selections.
Windows are added to the list according to which window is selected
when you open that window. That list may be displayed for quick
selection.
* Fast text handling using true tabs
The screen updates speedily as you edit.
* ARexx implementation
ARexx macros may be assigned to any function key for quick access.
Please Note: ARexx is still partly under construction. A few
simple commands work fine, but the command set is not complete.
This will be addressed in future versions.
* Undo
Errors may be corrected by selecting the Undo function.
* Find and replace
Text may be searched for and replaced. Case sensitivity can be
toggled on and off.
* Bookmarks and jump to line
You may store up to five locations in your document that may be
quickly restored. Also, you may jump to any given line.
* Text centering
Any selected area of text may be centered.
* Word wrap
Word wrapping may be set at any character position.
* Case conversions
Any selected area can be converted to three different case
formats.
* Loading, saving and printing of clips
Clips may be loaded, saved, and printed. This also allows for a
standardized way to insert files within another file.
* Removing and adding of CR+LF line endings
CR+LF end of line sequences are converted upon loading to a
single LF sequence. Optionally, they may be resaved in that
format.
Programming specific features
* C procedure listing for quick jumps to procedures
All valid C procedures can be listed in a single window. You may
instantly jump to any one by clicking on it in the window.
* Tab Blocks Left or Right
Any selected blocks of text can be tabbed to the left or to the
right. This is a real time-saver for C programmers.
* Auto indenting
An auto indenting function may be turned on as needed.
* Find matched bracket
Inspire! will find the bracket that matches the one currently
under the cursor.
