JWP - A Japanese Word Processor for Windows =========================================== Release 1.01 Copyright (C) 1991-1992, Stephen Chung All rights reserved What is JWP? JWP is a Japanese word processor designed to run under Microsoft Windows. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License. What's New? This is version 1.01, the first maintenance release from version 1.0 beta of JWP. The following bugs are fixed: - Dictionary insert-to-file now works :-) - The problem with printing one line on certain ink-jet and dot-matrix printers is now (hopefully) fixed - You can now print out TrueType fonts on dot-matrix printers Additions to version 1.0 beta are: - On-line help. The help system contains the complete JWP manual. People who don't have Word for Windows 2.0 can now (at last) read the manual. :-) - Templates, a time- and sanity-saver Updating from Version 1.0 Beta For those of you updating to JWP 1.01 from version 1.0 beta, you need only copy the following files into your JWP directory: JWP.EXE JWP.HLP MANUAL.DOC README.TXT In order to preserve you current settings, you need to use a text editor (Windows Notepad, for example) to edit the file 'JWP.INI' in your Windows directory. Add the following lines under the section '[File Names]': JWP Directory= Help File=\JWP.HLP Add the following line at the END of the JWP.INI file: Help=F1 Save the file and exit the editor. Your new version of JWP is now ready to run. If you prefer, you can use the MAKEINI.EXE program that comes with this version to create a brand-new JWP.INI file. Beware, however, that all your settings will be lost. First-Time Installation To install JWP, follow the steps outlined below. I realize that this installation process is more manual than necessary; however, since JWP is a freeware project, I do not have the option of bundling a commercial installer. Maybe someday I'll write one. . . Meanwhile, sorry for the inconveniences. Prepare: Make sure you are in DOS and not Windows. If you are currently running Windows, either exit it or run a DOS window. To exit Windows, choose 'File Exit' from the Program Manager menu. To run a DOS window, double-click on the “DOS Prompt” icon in the 'Main' program group. Step 1: Create a new directory for JWP. For example, if you want to call the directory C:\JWP, you should type: C: MD \JWP Step 2: Switch to the directory. For example: CD \JWP Step 3: Unpack all the 'zip' files into the new sub-directory. For example: PKUNZIP JWPPROG.ZIP PKUNZIP JWPDICT.ZIP : : Step 4: Make sure that you have all the files necessary for JWP. A list of all the files can be found following these instructions. Step 5: Type the command: MAKEINI This program will create a default initialization file called JWP.INI, using the name of the current directory. Because of this, it is critical that you are in the JWP directory when you do this. (Follow the steps outlined above closely) You will also be asked to type in the name of the Windows directory. In many systems, the Windows directory is something like C:\WINDOWS. MAKEINI will attempt to create the initialization file in your Windows directory. Step 6: If all goes well without errors (Whew!), JWP is ready to run. Unlike many commercial Windows programs, JWP does not automatically install itself into the Program Manager. It is necessary for you to use the 'File New' command and add a program item into the appropriate program group. You can now run JWP by double-clicking on the JWP icon.
