The main menu consists of 6 points.

6. Overlay - loading overlays. To
to generate load on the overlay
drive should be a file named
w.wor3_0.add. Otherwise you'll get a dirty message. After the
first podgruzki will show you the number version and the number
of overlays in the module Additions and asked to choose
one of them. For example, the message type
"ZX-WinWord v3.0 Modul v1.2" means
that work is carried out with models
designed to work together with
Editor version 3.0 (AND NO OTHER!), the module has the version
number 1 in the its structure has two overlay. Any additional
information, as well as learn about new versions of add-ons you

Under the main menu bar is
Status Line, which reports information on mode of the editor.

It's all in the editing mode, text mode editing template, all
slightly differently:
- PAGE: xxx - current page number.
- SPRITE: aaa / bbb - the current number
sprite (aaa) and the total number of sprites in the table (bbb).
- X = xxx - x coordinate of this sprite.
- Y = yyy - y coordinate of this sprite.
Now, a few general points
------------------------------
1. As already mentioned, with version 2.0 introduced the
concept of "attribute by default." He you need for what would
be promptly change the basic color of the document. For
example, the text was green and you want make it yellow. In
previous versions of you had to climb throughout the text and
pass the color. Now you have enough
paint the desired area, or the word
"Attribute by default, and ... and all changes can be made from
the item Setup, the main menu. "Attribute Default" corresponds
to the attribute codes of 0 and 255.
2. With version 3.0, as I mentioned, the concept of "font by
default." This Thing you will be very helpful if
when you need to draw all or almost
the entire text of a font. Just want to
say that the default font to become active only at the
beginning of the page and before the first switch the font to
_etoy zhe_ page.
3. Under the text, graphics, template discharged
own memory locations, so they
maximum size of each other does not.
4. The document is saved in its own
format, with the addition of one official
sector, which contains all the necessary information to the
editor for the normal identification document. In addition to
the text, of course, the file contains the template and the
table of sprites.
5. Since the maximum length of the document
as a whole could reach 384 (!!!) sector, the program introduced
the concept of faylasatellita - file, located directly behind
the main, have the extension "1" and employees ONLY (!!!) For
what would be fooled by TR-DOS. The main file and the
file-editor of the satellite are considered as a whole (!!!),
And therefore always have a satellite be located behind the
main one.
6. If you type a file name to delete
all characters and press ENTER (ie enter
empty string), then the disk access is not
happen. If, for example, you sluchyno
fell into the regime SAVE DOC., and write something
did not want, then enter an empty
row (but not a string of spaces), you return to the main menu.
7. As mentioned above, the editor understands mode DOC few
official code combinations. Until you are only really two: the
color management - code 16 is followed by a byte
attributes, and font management - code 1
followed by the number font. They can be
how to type in the mode of TXT (through
Command), where they will be perceived
as a normal character (this applies to all
code combinations), and through the hot key mode DOC. In
addition, not "work", but "cost" three
combination: 2 (+ 1 byte) 4 (+ 1 byte);
18 (+ 3 bytes).
