WordPerfect 6.0b for DOS Changes and Enhancements Button Bars Adding a button to a Button Bar would always place the newly added button at the bottom of the list. Buttons are now inserted at the highlight bar in the list of buttons. Coaches The Coaches list is now sorted by document descriptive name rather than by filename. Convert Graphics You can now save the first bitmapped image contained in a WPG 2.0 file from the image editor in any of the following formats: TIFF, TrueVision, TARGA and Paintbrush PCX. FAX Using FaxDirect, you can include up to 100 fax files with Fax On Disk (Shift+F7,x,s,a). Previously, you could only include one file. The WordPerfect CAS Setup program will now auto-detect the COM port and class driver of the fax modem. If the configuration file does not exist, then the auto-detection will occur automatically when entering SETUP.EXE. Otherwise, the user may press 2 for Hardware Driver Setup and then press F4. When pressing F10 from within the Hardware Driver Setup, the program will check the settings to make sure they are valid. This auto-detection also works for user-specified non-standard interrupts. File Manager Option 9 in File Manager is now "Create Dir," which allows customers to create a new directory. The File Manager Sort options are now temporary. You can choose to save them permanently by choosing "Save Default to Setup File" (F5,Enter,Sort/Setup). Find/QuickFinder File Manager's Find feature has been combined with QuickFinder searching to make it more powerful. Fonts Type 1 fonts have been added to the Additional Fonts disk to support the Hebrew, Cyrillic, Japanese, Arabic, and Arabic Script character sets. Graphics Printing The speed for printing bitmapped graphics, as well as printing graphics on most non-PostScript/non-HPGL printers, has been improved. Installation Even though you may choose Never Prompt for Smart Prompting, the Installation program will prompt to update or replace the WP.DRS if fonts have been added. If Shell is the last line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, installing the FaxDirect files will add the FAXDIR.EXE and FAXB.COM lines to the AUTOEXEC.BAT before the SHELL line instead of afterwards. A new prompt has been added to the Installation program to allow the user to select how to update a modified speller file, WPUS.LEX. The options are: Replace current Speller file. This option will replace the current Speller file and the user will need to make all modifications manually. Install new file/Rename current file. This option will rename the existing WPUS.LEX to WPOLDUS.LEX. This allows you to chain the two speller files inside of WordPerfect so that the added words will not be caught. Because of a version difference, you will need to run SPELL.EXE dated 2/14/94 in order to convert the file to the newer format. Macros CALENDAR.WPM macro has been added that will create portrait/landscape calendars for a user defined year. It can be accessed by Ctrl+k or playing CALENDAR.WPM. Four new macro system commands have been added: ?Ruler ?HorizontalScrollBar ?VerticalScrollBar ?Framed Twenty-five new macro tokens were added to correspond with new features and enhancements: BarcodeDlg FaxRasterizeCover FileManagerUseSpeedupFile FileMangerSaveSetup InsertFilenameDlg LabelsDlg LineNumberingDlg PageNumberingDlg PageSuppressDlg PaperSizeTypeDlg PrinterFunctionsDlg QuickFinderDefaultDocSummary QuickFinderDocSummary QuickFinderSearchIn QuickFinderResultsLevels QuickFinderWPDocsOnly RulerNewTabType RulerSetup SubdividePageDlg TableAdjustBegin TableAdjustColumnWidth TableAdjustEnd TableAdjustPosition TableDataFill Macro Conversion Macro Conversion program now supports the conversion of fractional measurement entries such as 2 1/4". Password Enhanced Password Protection feature has been added. This new level of password protection includes case sensitive passwords. It is important to note that files saved with an Enhanced Password can be read by WordPerfect for DOS 6.0a and later but NOT earlier WordPerfect 6.0 versions of DOS and Windows. Printing A dialog now displays after the Print button is pressed and before you are returned to the document screen. The dialog first displays the message "Formatting Document" and the page number being formatted. Then, while WordPerfect is writing the temporary print file to disk, the message "Creating Print Information" and the page number displays. These messages appear instead of "Please Wait....". QuickFinder You can now specify a file pattern (for example, *.DOC) when searching an index. QuickFinder now finds words in documents that use a character map other than WordPerfect default. QuickFinder will now find characters in the Greek, Hebrew, and Cyrillic character set. Retrieve All history lists, (drop down lists of last used files) now allow up to 10 filenames. The lists are located in the Open/Retrieve, Sort (Source and Destination), Play/Record Macro, and Merge dialog boxes. Ruler A Ruler comparable to the ruler in WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows has been added. It allows for manipulation of table, column, and document margins, adjusting table columns widths, and setting multiple types of tabs. Select Printer An Install/Printer Disk option has been added to the Add Printer dialog(Shift+F7, s, a) to allow adding a printer from within WordPerfect, instead of having to exit and run Install externally. Sound Support has been added for the Sound Blaster 16ASP sound card on the Additional Drivers disk. The driver files are TAPISB16.COM and SB16.ARS. Speller Many new words and abbreviations have been added to the WPUS.LEX file. New WPUS.LEX, WPCC60US.DTL, and WPHY60US.DTL file have been added to improve the speed of the Speller. Tables AutoFill has been added to the Table Edit dialog box. This feature recognizes a pattern of incrementing values from two table cells and automatically completes the pattern across a row or down a column. The pattern can include Arabic or Roman Numerals, days of the week, months, quarters, or table formulas. For example, a users only needs to type January and February in the first tow cells of a table, block the table to be filled, and select the AutoFill feature. AutoFill will fill the rest of the cells with the remaining months of the year. (NOTE: The name of the current table or floating cell will be displayed on the status line (for example, Cell A1 now reads Table_A.A1). Video Drivers Support for the Trident graphics card has been added. The driver includes six graphics modes: 1024x768, 800x600, 640x480 (all in 16 and 256 colors); and seven text modes: 132x25, 132x30, 132x43, 132x60, 80x30, 80x43, 80x60 (all in 16 colors). Video Drivers Support for S3 chipset video cards has been added. The graphics driver (S3.VRS) supports 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and 1280x1024 all with 16 and 256 colors. WPFI The ability to delete graphic fonts from the WP.DRS file and printer fonts from the .PRS file has been added.
