I am running AppleWorks 5 on my LC 520. I want to get rid of the grey backgrounding behind the white text in the WP. I also want the application, at launch, to open hiding the ruler, and without the faint "page outline" on the screen. Now, I've already made Stationary that sets these things, BUT, then I have to go through the whole business of the Welcome Screen just to select the Stationary. I want this Stationary to be the default at launch, without all the extra selecting.
Also, another strange thing. I cannot seem to use an AppleWorks alias on the desktop to open documents dropped onto it, like I can with Word or BB Edit. Anybody know why? I save a lot of web text documents, and would like to use AppleWorks to open them. I am also interested in finding or scripting Unix-to-Mac and HTML-to-Mac cleanup commands for web texts like one finds in BB Edit or Tex-Edit Plus [such as Soft Wrap and Strip Control Characters]. Are these hidden somewhere in AppleWorks 5, do they exist in later versions, or is this simply not possible? Finally, my LC 520 came with the archaic CD Caddy. Si there any way I can swap in a regular CD-ROM with the outside drawer button? Or even install a SCSI CD burner? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
