ANSITERM 2.0 PRESS

[paul.parkhurst@uttsbbs.uucp (Paul Parkhurst)]

COLOR SCROLLBACK
================

   ANSITerm provides up to 8 megabytes of scrollback so you can review
what has gone off the top of your screen.  Scrollback also displays
color and high-ASCII characters for ANSI emulation, mousetext
characters for "Special" emulation, and all special characters for
VT-100 and VT-52, including double-sized characters and
invsere/bold/underline characters.

   Many features are included with scrollback, including text search,
sending selections to disk, the printer, or to the editor, and various
housekeeping features.


DIALING DIRECTORY
=================

   Up to 34 different systems and services can be stored for easy
access and auto-dialing.  Information stored for each includes baud
rate (110 to 57,600 baud), emulation, data format, and up to a
31-digit phone number.  Auto-dialing is fast and efficient and
includes support for both verbal and numeric results, "busy"
detection, and more.

   Version 2.0's dialing directory now has several new features,
including 10 alternate dial strings which can be used in place of the
default in case certain services require certain modem settings,
multi-service dialing which will dial many services one after the
other until a connection is established, a handy quick-dial feature,
10 special macros for each service in the dialing directory, and
several other new enhancements and features (including learnable logon
macros).


TEXT EDITOR
===========

   Version 2.0 now has a full-screen text editor.  The editor can edit
files of any size up to the available memory in your IIGS.  It has all
standard editor features, including line wrap on or off, show control
codes, block copy/delete/paste, definable block "quoting" for message
replies, line/paragraph formatting, printing (including
top/bottom/left/right margins, line length, and more), send to modem,
file appending, conversion to upper or lower case, high-ASCII support,
CR/LF support for saving files, find and replace, and Apple Extended
Keyboard support, to name the main features.  It uses the same custom
SHR font and default colors the rest of the program uses for sharp
color text.


MACRO LANGUAGE
==============

   Version 2.0 now also supports a full macro language.  All settings
for AT can now be changed via macro commands.  62 macros are available
for use at any one time, including 52 global system macros (accessable
through Option-A through Z and Shift-Option-A through Z) and 10
service macros for each of the services in the dialing directory.
Standard macro features include sending text to the console, remote
and console, and remote only, waiting for text from the remote,
getting a string from the remote or from the user (via a dialog box),
setting the color, screen location, receiving and sending files,
conditional branching between macros, a full set of file manipulation
macros (including open, close, input and output, random access, and
newline mode) and more.  The macro language includes 10 numeric and 10
string variables for use with the macros.

   Also included is learnable logon macro creation.  AT will monitor a
call to a BBS or service and create a logon macro for you (which may
be modified later on if you wish).

   All settings, such as baud rate, parity, all dialing directory and
transfer options, and almost all other setting for ANSITerm may be
modified and read using macros.
