WPTOOLS -- Utilities for WordPerfect 5.0 and 5.1
-------------------------------------------------

WPTOOLS is a collection of 20 utility programs for use with WordPerfect 
5.0 and 5.1.  At this writing, the latest version is 5.0a.  The 
shareware distribution available for downloading contains only 14 of 
these programs; the rest are provided on registration.  Note that one 
of the programs, LISTMACS, is of particular interest to MACROAID users. 

Here are brief descriptions of all the programs:

COMMENTS  Reads a WP5 document file, extracts the comments, and writes 
          them to standard output. 

DISKFONT  Searches a directory for specified soft font files and, 
          optionally, lists descriptive information about the fonts it 
          finds. 

ENDFOOT   Converts all footnotes (endnotes) to endnotes (footnotes), 
          changing automatic references appropriately. 

FIXPRE    Removes deleted (and optionally other) data packets from the 
          prefix of WP5 document files and removes deleted data 
          packets from WP5 setup files (WP{WP}.SET).  For document 
          files, this will often facilitate changing the printer 
          driver used with the file and shrink the file.  Setup files 
          grow as you modify your setup; FIXPRE shrinks them again. 
          And FIXPRE sometimes helps when WP5 just seems to be acting 
          strangely.  Optionally deletes styles, initial codes.  Also 
          works with PP5 set files, and perhaps with set files from 
          other forthcoming WPCorp programs. 

FONTFILE  Lists the file names of the soft font files specified in a 
          PRS file. 

FONTLIST  Lists the names of the fonts used in a WP5 document and the 
          PRS file the document calls for. 

IS5XDOC   Identifies WP5 document files.  Useful in batch files. 

LISTMACS  Lists the names and descriptions of macros in WPM and WPK 
          files (and the keys for WPK macros), optionally sorted. 
          Also works with PP5 macro and keyboard files. 

MAKETABS  Converts an ASCII text file to a WP50 document, replacing 
          spaces by tabs.  Used with columnar material. 

MASTER    Reads a WP5 master document and lists the unexpanded 
          subdocuments it calls for. 

MERGESUM  Creates (or adds to) a WP50 secondary merge file, each 
          record containing the information from a WP5 document 
          summary (or, optionally, the first 400 or so characters of a 
          document if no summary was created), along with information 
          from the DOS file directory.  In effect, creates a database 
          of document summaries that can be processed using the WP5 
          Merge and Sort functions, or WordPerfect's Notebook program. 

PRINTIT   Paginates and formats an ASCII text file for printing. 

PRSFONTS  Lists and optionally numbers the names of the fonts 
          available in a WP5 PRS file. 

STYLIST   Lists names and descriptions of styles, optionally sorted. 

STYLEUSE  Lists the styles used in the text of a document.  Lists the 
          styles found in the prefix but not used in the document. 
          Optionally deletes unused (or all) styles from the prefix. 
          Optionally deletes style on and off codes from the text of a 
          document, leaving the codes added by the style. 

TARGETS   Lists the automatic reference targets and references in a 
          WP5 document file, indicating unreferenced targets and 
          references to nonexistent targets. 

WHATPTRS  Lists the printers described in ALL files, optionally sorted 
          by printer name. 

WP5LOOK   Displays one or more WP5 document files specified on the 
          command line (or piped to the program).  Particularly 
          because files can be specified with wildcards, WP5LOOK may 
          be more convenient than WP5 itself for browsing through WP5 
          documents. 

WPGSIZE   Extracts and lists the dimensions of the image coordinate 
          space for WPG files.  Useful in getting the aspect ratio 
          right. 

WPSNOOP   Determines, in greater or lesser detail, the file type of 
          many, but not all, files associated with recent WordPerfect 
          Corporation products.  For WP5 document files, lists the 
          document summary and the PRS file.  For macro files, lists 
          the description.  Optionally reveals the structure of WP5 
          document file prefixes and of set file prefixes.

WPMD -- The Wperf5 File Doctor
--------------------------------

WPMD fixes sick or broken WordPerfect Version 5.x files.  There are 
many different symptoms of a sick or broken file.  Sometimes some or 
all of the text disappears, although the file size indicates that the 
text should still be there.  Sometimes WPerf5 fails to recognize the 
file as a WPerf5 document file.  Sometimes WPerf5 says there is not 
enough room on the WP disk to retrieve the file, even though there is 
lots of room on the disk.  And sometimes other things go wrong.  WPMD 
can usually cure the file, creating a WPerf5 file requiring only minor 
cleanup.  


     ------------------------------------------------------------


GV2WP
-----

GV2WP converts GrandView files to WordPerfect 4.2 or 5.0 files.  (GV2WP 
is designed to work with GrandView Version 1.x, and users of Version 2 
probably have no need for GV2WP.)  The  conversion is accomplished in a 
single step (in which GV2WP calls GV2TXT, a program by the author of 
GrandView, included with GV2WP).  GV heading labels are converted to 
WordPerfect automatic paragraph number.  Underlining, bolding, and 
other font attributes, and font size changes are preserved if you are 
converting to WordPerfect 5.0.  Category information is optionally 
converted.  Special codes allow drafting of footnotes in GrandView for 
conversion to WordPerfect.  Numerous formatting options are available.  

     ------------------------------------------------------------

PCOWP
-----

PCOWP converts structured files produced by PC-Outline and other 
outlining programs to WordPerfect 4.2 or 5.0 files.  Heading labels 
are converted to WordPerfect automatic paragraph numbers.  With minor 
preprocessing by one PCOWP option, PC-Outline underlining is 
converted.  Special codes can be used in your outlining program to 
allow conversion of other attributes, footnotes, and other features.  
Numerous formatting options are available.  

     ------------------------------------------------------------


WPXREF
------

WPXREF provides for WPerf4.2 the kind of automatic reference 
capability that WordPerfect Corporation itself provided for WPerf5.0.  
You place some simple codes in your WPerf4.2 document indicating the 
cross-references you want.  Just before printing the file, you run 
WPXREF on the file, creating a new output file in which the codes have 
been replaced by correct and up to date cross references to footnote 
numbers, paragraph numbers, and page numbers.  You can then revise 
your original document, and run WPXREF on the revised original.  The 
new output file has updated the cross-references to correspond to the 
changes you made in editing.
