README.TXT for RT Edit(TM) v1.1


Installation - There is also install information in the User's Manual

   The distribution file is RTEDIT11.ZIP prepared by PKZIP from PKWARE.
   Unzip the files to diskette or to a temporary directory on the hard
   disk.

   Windows must be running to install RT Edit.

   Run the Setup File from Windows.  One way to do this is to use the 
   Program Manager.  Select File | Run, then enter D:\Setup replacing "D" 
   with the disk drive where RT Edit resides or the full path to the RT Edit
   Files on your hard disk.

   You will see an introductory prompt.  At this point, you may cancel 
   the installation or continue.  At several points in the process, you 
   may choose "Exit" to terminate the installation.  If you do so, the 
   installation will be incomplete.

   If you continue, you will then see a default directory.  Your may 
   accept the default or change the directory by editing this field.

   A dialog then provides for your selection of optional items available 
   in the installation.  One version of the User's Manual on disk is 
   provided.  This file is an ASCII text file, with extension ".prn".
   You will also see two choices for a group to enter the RT Edit
   program items.  If neither of these is satisfactory, you may setup
   these items using the Windows Program Manager after the Setup program
   completes.

   If there is not enough space on the destination drive, you  will see 
   a warning and Setup will terminate.  Setup will similarly terminate
   if your CPU is not an 80386 or better.

Notes - RT Edit User's Manual, Version 1.0

   page  9  The User's Manual describes the use of arguments within
         Visual C++ or the Borland IDE.  An occasional problem has been
         reported when using RT Edit this way.   There have not yet been
         problems found when RT Edit is called with no arguments.  In this
         case, the full RT Setup or Save/Restore Environment is used to
         operate with Identifier Lookup.

         Also, when RT Edit is exited with save of a file, you may need 
         to close (without saving) and re-open the file in the IDE in 
         order to include the changes made.

   page 7  Limitations.  An additional limitation was omitted.  The
         tab position is fixed at 3 character intervals, but tabs are
         retained in the text so viewing the file in other tools may
         allow viewing or printing with other tab values.

      Status     Problem
      --------------------------------------------------------------------      
      Corrected  It was reported that an undocumented file was being
                 written to the current directory.
                 The problem was that a file of the identifiers
                 recognized was written when "Identifier Lookup" was
                 used in RT Edit.  This file was always named "idents.txt"
                 and overwrote any existing file of that name.  The
                 content of the file was the set of Identifier names found.
                 This was in error and was corrected.  A future version of
                 RT Edit may include an option to write this file.
