Information about “TURBO SCREDIT 2 OF 2 (1653 ALSO)”

As a Turbo Pascal programmer you may enjoy screen design, but dread the
hours of coding required to get the screen to look the way you want.
Many screen library packages help, but still require that you write a
considerable amount of code.  With TURBO SCREDIT, you create screens
with the built-in screen editor; TURBO SCREDIT automatically generates
the code.  No syntax errors and no repetitive debugging.

The package mainstay is a special editor for designing screens. Tedious
tasks such as programming in screen color, data field location, data
field length, data entry order, and line and box drawing are easily
manipulated in the screen editor.  Data input, conversion, and error
checking are all controlled with a simple macro sub language.  No
photographic memory or scratch work is necessary since the screen design
is done as it would appear in the application. The generated code is
even commented to make customization easier.

TURBO SCREDIT can be used by programmers at any skill level.  It comes
with extensive on-line help, a tutorial, and a programmers reference
manual.

      [About version 1.6]----------------------------------------------
      Turbo ScrEdit 1.6 has many improvements over version 1.5, but  is 
      completely source code compatible with all previous versions. 
      Improvements include:
       1 - A new programmers reference manual.
       2 - New tutor parts II and III (II deals with field validation
           statements, III deals with programming techniques.)
       3 - New version now supports true DUPE FIELDS, EDIT MASKS, FULL
           COLOR RECONFIGURING PROGRAMMATICALLY (fields and screens).
           Improved demonstration  files and examples.  New  modes  for
           using  ENTER as TAB, instantaneous field validation as  data
           is  entered, automatic display of field help  messages,  and
           much more!
       4 - All new installation procedure (INSTALL.BAT). 
       5 - BATCH  file  procedures simplify generating the  "Unit"  and  
           "C" library files for programmers interfaces.
       6 - Windows  library has been improved and made much faster  and 
           more flexible.
       
       PREVIOUS TURBO SCREDIT USERS:
           Delete  all  of  the previous Turbo ScrEdit  files  and  re-
           install using INSTALL.BAT.  
      
           ScrEdit.Exe has been renamed to TScrEdit.Exe.
       
       PREVIOUS VERSION ERRORS CORRECTED:
           The run time error that would occasionally occur while using 
           the F4 compile screen option has been corrected.
      
           The   F9  ascii  character  override  procedure   has   been 
           corrected.
      
           Turbo ScrEdit seemed to Hang when any key was pressed  other 
           that  Y or N when prompting for confirmation  during  screen 
           selection  -  Now  it continues to prompt until Y  or  N  is 
           selected.
      
           Automatic  screen file backup is now optional - has Y  or  N 
           prompt.

                   libraries. Disk 2 of 2 also contains PART III of the 
                   Turbo  ScrEdit  tutor,  the  programmers   reference

                   windows  to maintain a data base of mailing  labels. 
                   (Uses  Turbo  Database Toolbox).  Other  programming 
                   examples as disk space allows.
      
      
      [BULLETIN BOARD USERS]-------------------------------------------
      
      If  you have downloaded the Turbo ScrEdit files from  a  bulletin 
      board,  you  will want to unpack the files onto 2  (360k)  floppy 
      diskettes.  (One  high density diskette will do, but it  will  be 
      easier  to  follow the installation instructions if you  use  two 
      diskettes.)  
      
      Unpack ScrEd1.Arc onto a diskette labeled "Disk 1 of 2".
      
      Unpack ScrEd2.Arc onto a diskette labeled "Disk 2 of 2".
      
      When  you have successfully unpacked the files you will have  two 
      diskettes that will contain the files listed below.

      [INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS]--------------------------------------
      
      The batch file INSTALL.BAT will help you install Turbo ScrEdit on 
      your system. The installation will vary depending on your  system 
      configuration. 
      
      * Hard disk users*      There is nothing special you will need to
      do  before beginning the installation. You will specify the  name 
      of  the  directory that you want Turbo ScrEdit  to  be  installed 
      into. The installation program will create the directory and four 
      additional sub-directories.
      
      * Floppy disk users *   You  will  need  5   formatted  diskettes 
      for the installation. Some of the diskettes will only be required 
      until you can print the documents that they will hold. Before  we 
      go further let me show you how the 5 diskettes will relate to the 
      hard drive installation. 
      
      Hard Disk Structure:         Floppy diskettes labeled:
      ---------------------------  ------------------------------------
      C:\UserDirectory             "1 of 5 - Turbo ScrEdit"
      C:\UserDirectory\Tutor       "2 of 5 - Turbo ScrEdit Tutor"
      C:\UserDirectory\Doc         "3 of 5 - Programmers Ref. Manual"
      C:\UserDirectory\Interfac    "4 of 5 - Program Interface Modules"
      C:\UserDirectory\Demos       "5 of 5 - Examples and Demos"
      
      (UserDirectory is specified by you during installation.)                
      -----------------------------------------------------------------
      
      INSTALL.BAT  requires  three parameters and has  a  command  line 
      format of:
           INSTALL TYPE  FROM:  TO:[\PATH]       
                   ----  -----  ----------
           TYPE:   H  when installing on a hard drive system.
                   F  when installing on a floppy drive system.
           FROM:   The  disk drive where the installation diskette  has 
                   been inserted.
           TO:[\PATH]  
                   FLOPPY DRIVE INSTALLATION: specify only the 
                   destination disk drive (No Path, \ is assumed).
      
                   HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION: specify the drive and
                   path where you wish Turbo ScrEdit to reside.
      
      TO BEGIN THE INSTALLATION: follow these 3 steps:
      
         STEP 1 - Insert "Disk 1 of 2" into drive A: 
      
         STEP 2 -  FLOPPY DRIVE INSTALLATION: Insert diskette "1 of  5" 
                   into drive B: and type: B:
      
         STEP 3 -  HARD DRIVE INSTALLATION example:
                       A:INSTALL H A: C:\ScrEdit
      
                -  FLOPPY DRIVE INSTALLATION example:
                       A:INSTALL F A: B:
      
      TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION: When INSTALL.BAT is  finished,  the 
      initial  installation will be complete. However, there are  still 
      several  steps  to  be  performed.  Locate  and  print  the  file 
      "PrintMe.1st and continue the installation as described beginning 
      on Page 3.
