What is it?
-----------
EdIt-16 is a state-of-the-art text based editor designed for
creating and editing text and source files on the Apple IIGS. EdIt-16
is fully compatable with the APW, ORCA, ProSEL 16 and Merlin shells,
or can be launched as a stand-alone program from the Finder or other
program launcher.
What will EdIt-16 do for me?
----------------------------
EdIt-16 is far superior than any other editor available. Here are
a few of EdIt-16's features:
o Pull-down menus with time and date display. Key equivalents
can be changed, removed, or added. The menu bar can be hidden
to provide more editing area. Operates like a graphical
program (like AppleWorksGS or the Finder) with the speed of
the text screen.
o Multiple files can be edited at the same time and text can be
cut, copied or pasted between them. The screen can be split
and/or "frozen."
o Clipboard support for Cut, Copy and Paste. The clipboard can
be viewed while editing. Undo support is provided on a line
by line basis.
o Full print support including starting and ending lines, lines
per page, page numbers, and headers. The clipboard can also
be printed.
o Mouse support with mouse speed and function definition.
o Online help, file viewing and catalog support.
o Full word processing type support including:
- Search and/or replace on all text or forward/backward with
case sensitivity options.
- 255 characters per line. Line length can be changed
"on-the-fly" to automatically reformat your text. Includes
full word wrap support.
- Support of "real" tabs. 5 user defineable tab sets that can
be keyed to different filetypes. Supports the Orca SYSTABS
file.
o Can be used as a shell program (EXE) or application (S16)
file. Using EdIt-16 as a application allows you to double
click on any text or source file in the Finder to edit it.
o Online definition of command sets and recording and editing
of keyboard macros.
o Apple Extended Keyboard(tm) support.
o Fully customizable.
o Full error support and reporting under the Orca and APW
shells.
o Fully tested and reliable.
o Much more!
With SSSi's exceptional support program, you'll know to expect
enhancements, added features, and outstanding support now and in the
future.
