Subject: Re: word frequency

You can use macros to count just about anything. Here is a macro that was
written in WP5.0, but it should work in 5.1 as well.I'll use ^ for tilde.

display off!go!b^
   label!g^search!var 2!search!
assign!1^var 1!+1^promot!var 1!^go!g^
   label!b^
If!state!&512^reveal codes!end if!assign!2^^
text!2^del to eop!  ;!del to eop is ctrl V + ctrl L^
This macro will automatically count the occurrence of textenter!
in a document, beginning at the cursor position.enter!
Remember that capitals are exclusive, small letters inclusive.enter!
Type the text below and ENTER, or leave blank to terminate.
enter!enter!^
if exists!2^display on!display off!
assign!1^0^on not found!go!e^^go!g^
else!quit!end if!
   label!e^
char!0^var 1! entries found.    Press any key^

I like to prompt the number of operations on screen so that I know
what is happening. With *Please Wait* on the screen, you never know

Subject: Problem with graphics in WP.

Hi,
I have a wordperfect file which contains 3 graphics generated by
drawperfect (along with some text), the problem is whenever I edit
a graphic box (to change let's say word wrapping to no) lots of the
file text is lost!!??
Can anybody help me with this, I need it really bad.
Thanks in advance.

Subject:      list files - default display

From:  Doreen Rappaport
To change from long display back to short is really simple.  Go into list
files and display your directory.  At the bottom, there is an option for
long/short display.  I think it is 5 or 6.  Change the display back to
short and press enter a couple of times and your directory should be changed.

I think the length of time it takes to display the directory is a function
of whether you are in long/short display.  Long display for whatever reason
takes longer.

Thanks to everyone who responded to this request on the line draw

vacation has started, but I shall in a couple of weeks.

It's impressive to see the speed and the number of responses to
this question.  WPCORP-L is much better (in my case anyway) than
a post into a newsgroup.

Thanks again...from your vacation bum...

Subject:      Re: macro help requsted - two spaces at the end of a sentence

A while ago someone asked for help with double spacing at the end of sentences.
Here is a macro which sets two spaces at the end of a sentence.  It also makes
sure that two existing spaces aren't changed to three, and that there isn't
a double space after many frequently used abbreviations in the middle of
sentences, such as: "et al.",  "p.",  "pp.",  "(p.",  "(pp.", and "Dr.".
You would still have to manually delete one space after abbreviations
of, e.g., state names; however, you can add state names and other strings
which end with: . or ! or ? or ", once you understand the simple logic of
this macro.
The macro consists of several lines, each one searching and replacing one
or three spaces following certain characters by two spaces.  You should
hear a beep after each replace command is performed.
If you want to see the replacements as they happen, delete the "DISPLAY OFF"
macro command; however, things will happen slower.

BTW: in macro language, WP uses a small bullet (ascii 250, I think) for
spaces.  On your screen or printer it may come out differently.  So when
typing the macro, make sure you use spaces.  For example, in the first
search & replace line, after {Enter} there is a period (.), then a space (_),
then {Search}, etc. Notice here I used _ as a space. In the macro I use a
regular space.

Try it and let me know if it works.  JUST IN CASE, MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR FILE
BEFORE TRYING IT (for me it always works fine).

Roger B. suggested that WP's List Files with long file display would be
speeded by having the descriptions in a separate file, as Norton
Utilities' FileInfo did.  I agree, but I'd go further to hope that the
format would be compatible with 4DOS, the popular COMMAND.COM
replacement.  Then you'd see the descriptions in a simple directory
listing from the DOS prompt as well as in List Files.  One drawback is
that if files are moved or copied with utilities that are not aware of
the description file, that file would not be properly updated.  Maybe WP
would have to maintain the descriptions both ways (in each file and in
one separate one) to maintain compatibility with those who are still
struggling along with what they got with MSDOS.

I like WP Office's File Manager, an enhanced version of List Files, but
I rarely use it any more because it's not 4DOS-aware.

is wading trough all definitions and deletions that ever take place

senseless if he wants only the last state.

    To change your display back permanently you have to go into setup
(SHIFT-F1), I think it's environment (3) then Document Retrieval (4)
and the options are all there.

    It does take longer to list your documents in long format, but
that it is part because WordPerfect will sort everything
alphabetically for you.  In the latest interim release (3/9/92) they
have included a feature that allows you to choose NOT to sort your
files which is particurly nice in large subdirectories.

This doesn't solve your problem when you're document is already
'mutilated'.  I have made large (> 300 pages) documents with and index,
table of contents, figure list, cross references.  You certainly can do
this with WP, but with documents that big, you definitely need use
subdocuments.  If you use subdocuments, take care of where you put your
initial codes: which ones at the beginning of the text and which ones
at 'ShiftF8 - Document - Initial Codes'.  You also need some patience
or (and?) a very fast computer.

For obviously mutilated documents, you *do* need WPMD2.EXE

How do you recognise you're document is mutilated:
* If you move the cursor down, it suddenly jumps to unexpected places
  in the document. You may be shown the same text over and over
  again.
* Pieces of the document seem te be missing. Don't worry, most of the
  time the text *is* complete, you just can't see.
* The text shows [Unknown Code] or codes like ^A^B^X at places where
  you haven't put them.
* The document fails to generate, whatever you try.
* Tables don't print properly.

Only one of these situations is enough to assume there's something wrong.


Hope this helps.

Thanks for the notice.  I also checked with the Printer5&6 disk for the
July 1992 update -- and the correct one was on it.  Thanks for the help.

The PTR-program allows me to save a character map from a .PRS-file
into a file.  But how do I retrieve it into another .PRS-file?

A variety of printer driver are available from Word Perfect corporation.
I think the latest Deskjet printer driver is on disk 11 or 12 I think.
If you give them your license number, they will send a printer disk

John Harrington asked whether DP2.0 is a DOS or graphics program.

The WP rep who gave a demo said that it is a graphics program that does
not require Windows 3.x.  It still runs within 640K and can also be run
in character mode a la DP1.1.  It seemed to be running rather quickly;
someone in the audience asked what computer he was using.  He replied,
"A laptop 386/33."  Oh.

Looks like my XT clone's days are "dwindling down to a precious few."
