Are you bored with the standard icons of your favorite word processor? If this is the case, then here is a suggestion.
You must have ResEdit to use the file “For Nisus”. Double-click it to see a window containing resources. Open each of them to see the new icons and rulers. Here is how you can install them in Nisus. Select all the resources and make a copy. Then open a copy of Nisus 3.4 with ResEdit, and paste the resources. A dialog box will ask you if you want to replace all existing resources with the same ID number. Click on “Yes”, and voila! Close the file “Nisus” and save your changes. The next time you will launch Nisus, you will see a beautiful ruler and nice 3D-like buttons. To see the new icons, you will probably have to rebuild your desktop and trash the original version of Nisus.
Stupid note: You must have a color monitor to use these resources... because they all use colors! So if you have a black & white system, just forget about all this!
Warning
Never, NEVER, N E V E R change the resources of the original copy of Nisus on your installation disks! Using ResEdit, and particularly with Nisus 3.4 which contains compressed resources, is very hazardous. If you made something wrong, there are some chances that you will lose the program! So be cautious with this. If you are in doubt, ask your local guru.
Also, note that I am not responsible for any damage caused by the installation of these resources. So, use these at your own risk.
