One more thing:

 

The command I mentioned before (SC -B) can be issued with an executable 
filename right after the B, in order to specify the editor executable.  The 
default

is “E.EXE”.  However, if you wanted to, I suppose you could copy E.EXE to 
something like WS.EXE, then, to “burn” in the WordStar interface into the 
“WS.EXE”

file you would type:

 

SC -BWS.EXE UI\WS.UI

 

So, theoretically, you could have an editor executable for each interface if 
you wanted it.

 

Cheers!

Subject: a note about User interfaces provided in the Semware Editor

 

Hi listers:

 

Just a quick note about the copy of the Semware Editor provided on the Semware 
Web site:

 

There are 5 user interfaces that can be “burned”into the e.exe editor.

 

By default, the editor is shipped with the default TSE interface.

 

In the UI directory, there are several interface files that can be used to 
“burn” them into the E.EXE file.

 

If you unzipped the editor as provided into C:\TSE250E, there is a folder 
called UI which contains 5 user interface files which can be “burned” into the

E.EXE editor.

 

Here are the file names and what they are for:

 

tse.ui - Standard Editor User Interface

tsejr.ui - TSE Jr User Interface

brief.ui - Brief User Interface

wp.ui - WordPerfect User Interface

ws.ui - WordStar User Interface

 

So, for example, to “burn” the Word Perfect interface into the editor, you 
would cd into the C:\TSE250E” directory and type:

 

SC -B UI\WP.UI

 

And press <Enter>.

 

The editor did come with an installer which provided a menu of these 
interfaces, but, the released version here provides all of them in the UI 
directory,

whereas, if you used an installer, only the interface you requested would be 
available.

 

Just thought I’d mention this, since I don’t know where to find this in the 
help docs.

 

Hope this helps.
