Well, I wrote these two little macros because I missed the smartquotes macro offered in Word for Windows 2.0. I also found the typographic quotes offered by DeScribe to be a little depressing. So I wrote these macros. Enclosed are the two macro files and as well as the font that this macro needs to work. Basically, the macro "AutoSingle" will determine if you need a left or right single typographic quote and insert it while the "AutoQuote" will determine the same for regular quotes. So I offer these two macros to the public domain to see if someone else finds them as useful as I do and for someone who does not want to bother learning the Macro language. I downloaded the dingbats font from ftp-os2.cdrom.com and used "Pfm2Afm" to convert it. There was no mention of the font being shareware in the file so I must assume that the font is also freeware. WARNING I give no guarantees with this macro. While it works fine for me, it has not been tested for all situtations, and therefore could eat your life's work for all I know (although I doubt it). Don't bother suing me because you won't get much. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Now that cheery stuff is out of the way... INSTALLATION First, install the dingbats font included in this zip. 1) open the System Setup menu and then open the Font Palette 2) click on edit font 3) click on add font 4) type in the directory name where this unzipped is located 5) select "dingbats" and click on "OK" 6) close all windows 7) copy the files "AutoSingle" and "AutoQuotes" to the directory /DeScribe/Macros (or whatever you have renamed your Macros directory to) 8) then just run the macros when you need a quote I personally used the keyboard manager to set Alt-Ctrl-' (the quote key) to run the AutoQuote and Alt-' (again, the quote thing) to run the AutoSingle macro. Of course, if you find a better method... If you have any questions, comments or especially suggestions on how to improve this macro, please e-mail me. My address is dregeczi@sfu.ca. Hope you enjoy!
