README.TXT for Smooth Editor version 1.01 Copyright (C) 1995 Dubbeldam Software All Rights Reserved. -------------------- Description: ------------ Smooth Editor is an ASCII-text editor with accelerated smooth scrolling. You'll never see another editor look this good. It also has: -XMS memory use, so virtually unlimited file lengths -Extensive Undo and Redo functions -Multiple files -Symbol table, so you can easily use other than standard characters -All other functions you'd expect from a decent editor. Just check out the demo! Syntax: ------- SE [filename] Without filename, Smooth Editor will present the File Open Window. Filename can contain wildcards, SE will open all matching files. Demo: ----- To see the demo, make sure the SE.INI is not in the path or in the program directory. If it is you can just delete it, since SE will create a new one with all the default values. When you now start SE, it will ask you whether you want to see the demo.

Site licenses: -------------- Site license fees are based on the number of computers at the site to be licensed. For example, if you would like to use Smooth Editor on any machine within a department, division, building or group of buildings, then the fee would be based on the total number of PC's within that department, division, building or group of buildings. This assumes that the site wholly belongs to the person or company requesting the license. Corporate-wide licenses are also available and are based upon the total number of PC's owned by the corporation or government agency. The prices for Site Licenses are: 1-10 computers: $80 US More than 8 computers: $8 US per computer. For this price you will receive only one copy of the program, with a registration code for the whole site. Site Licenses must be paid by any kind of cheque, made out in $ US to Dubbeldam Software and mailed with the registration form to Dubbeldam Software, address below. For orders larger than for 100 computers, contact Dubbeldam Software (preferably by E-mail) for a better price. For the (E-mail) address, see below.
