[net.micro.cpm] foot notes for WS 3.3

jdhill@bbnccc.ARPA (Jack D. Hill) (08/06/86)

Does anyone know of a utility, PD or otherwise, that allows you to enter and
format foot notes in Word Star? I have version 3.3. While browsing through a
book store, I read in a Word Star tutorial that such a utility exists, but it
didn't mention where.
Thanks,

Jack, I beleive that StarIndex by MicroPro is the utility that you're
looking for.  It uses dot prompts like Mailmerge to do its thing.  I
assume that you're aware that you can assign a footer message in
WordStar using a ".fo" dot command.

There exists a PD footnoting utility for WordStar called (not surprisingly)
FOOTNOTE.  It appeared in volume 34 of our library (Bay Area Kaypro Users and
Programmers, or BAKUP, 412 61st St., Oakland, CA 94609).  Our library disks are
available only to our members ($10 per year, $1.50 for a listing of the disks
in the library), but the DOC file with FOOTNOTE has the name of the author -
Eric Meyer, 427 N. Washington, Bloomington, IN 47401.

Hope this is of use.
