1 [TRUE VIDEO] inserts (on a new line) a command character that looks like a `>'. The new line will be displayed in a different colour to the main text. All the text on the line following the command character is interpreted by Word-Master rather like the instructions making up a BASIC program, to produce effects on printout like elite & condensed pitches, or centred justification. See the section on COMMANDS for how to use these.

1 [ENTER] for write takes you into text editing, where you can alter or add to the text of the document. See EDITING DOCUMENTS.

1 [C] takes you to the colours menu. Pressing C, B or D will now change the command-line, border and text display colours. You can cycle through the colours until you find the combination you want, but beware - if you return with a border colour of white on white (or similar) you will find that all the menus are invisible!
1 [BREAK] Quit [V] Next
1 [A] for ASCII is potentially very destructive. What this does is strip away all command lines, special characters and underlines from the text. All non-standard characters other than 13's (carriage returns), 8's (backspaces), and 9's (tabs) are removed. You are asked `Yes/No?' before this is executed. On a large file with many characters to be deleted this may take some time.

1 You should now resave the BASIC with the following:
1 You should bear these limitations in mind if trying the demo's included here.
1 You should also note that >wide will only work properly with >fill justification. As you can see above, using >left, >right or >centred text produces erratic results when used with >wide. You should not set these modes when using this.
1 You could also try printing this out in >wide spacing by typing this command at the start of the file. You will notice that the lines as printed no longer correspond to the 64 column display. This is because >wide reduces the line length by one eighth when printing, then fills out the line to produce wide spacing. You can see this if you alter the display to 56 columns. The display lines will then correspond to the printed lines, though you should change back to 64 columns when you print the file.
1 You can use these to print special characters not normally accessible (see one of the other demos) but there are some things you should be wary of:
1 You can print the page number anywhere in the text by pressing [GRAPH] then [CAPS LOCK] then three blank characters after the `dot' character produced. The result looks like this:
1 You can also use them in combinations, such as
1 Words are underlined by moving the cursor over the word and pressing [symbol shift] and [I]. Repeating the procedure de-underlines the word.

1 When the text is displayed Word-Master checks that words are not split at the end of each line. If a word is overlapping the edge of the line, the line is broken at the last space before the word, and the word printed on the next line.

1 Typeliner is an extension program that works within Word-Master. It allows you to print custom-designed Near-Letter-Quality fonts within your documents. Proportional spacing and double-height characters can also be produced. Typeliner comes complete with twelve high-quality fonts and a font designer so you can create your own. As usual with Word-Master, graphics can also be incorporated, allowing you to produce very professional looking documents.
1 To read on, press [ENTER] to enter the document and use the cursor keys to scroll.
1 To re-enter Word-Master, simply type RUN.
1 This will load a different version of the BASIC which includes the commands to enable the RS232 port.
1 This text is printed in pica pitch. Notice how there is no gap between this and the above text when printed, although when displayed there is a command line in between them. To separate two paragraphs with a gap, a carriage return is used (the downwards pointing arrow character). This is inserted into the text by pressing [ENTER] when editing. Here, then, is a wide space:

1 This printer lacks the necessary functions to support the following commands:
1 This paragraph has a new margin, and is printed in 32 columns. You can see how this particular paragraph looks if you reduce the display to 32 columns also. It should be remembered that the margin is always set in PICA units (10th's of an inch). You should take this into account when working out a column width for a different pitch such as ELITE.
1 This is some text. This will be printed out in elite pitch & in 64 columns across. Notice how the text is displayed in a different colour to the main text.
1 This file demonstrates the >margin and >column commands. This paragraph is printed as on-screen, in a 64 character column width. The left margin has been set by the >margin command.
1 This file demonstrates
1 This demo prints a graphic in the centre of the page (with the above commands) and another in the middle of this text. As you can see, the text is automatically wrapped round the graphic to produce neat results. You can try this with different pitches
1 This can be a long process as you will have to swap disks for each file being copied. For this reason the BACKUP.BAS program is provided. RUN this and it will copy the files in groups from A: to B: via the ramdisk.
1 This can be a long process as you
1 There are two switchable options with this function. By default both are switched off whenever you enter the routine.
1 The process of actually writing your documents can be approached in a number of ways. Generally it is best to do the writing first and worry about print-styles and layouts later. Word-Master is very flexible when it comes to the final layout stage.
1 The insert mode works by pushing all the text right and inserting a character at the current cursor position. If insert is off, then the character under the cursor is overwritten with any new character typed. Paragraphs can be indented by inserting spaces at the start of the paragraph. In a similar way words can be pushed across to the right of the screen or tabulated into lists.
1 The displayed column width can be altered from this menu by the left/right cursor keys. If there is some text in the file, you will see it being rejustified as the column width is altered. The text will be printed out in this column width unless overrided by a the >column command (see COMMANDS).
1 The above defines UDC 1 as `a', `b' & `c'. Printed out this looks like `
1 The OPTIONS menu is reached whenever you `create' or `get' a file. If it is a graphic file then the graphic is displayed and there are three options open:
1 The +3 is the first Spectrum to deviate from the ten-character filenames used on the original rubber-keyed 48k. You can now have filenames like 12345678.DOC - effectively twelve characters long - but you can no longer use certain characters like + and * in a filename.

1 Pressing [SYMBOL SHIFT] and [W] activates the BLOCK handling routine. The cursor will flash rapidly and you will be prompted to [ENTER] the start of the block. Pressing [ENTER] will place a marker at the cursor position. It should be noted that the markers for start and end of block are temporary and are erased if you clear (ie scroll) the screen). If the block is very large, you may find you cannot remember where you positioned the markers, but fear not, if you get lost you can quit this function at any time by pressing [SPACE].
1 Pressing [SYMBOL SHIFT] and [E] activates the SEARCH/REPLACE function, asking you to input the `search$'. This can be any string of char- acters up to 64 characters long. You can also input the special characters produced with [GRAPH] (see CONTROL CHARACTERS section), and the wildcard `?' character as for other input. A carriage return can be entered by pressing [GRAPH] then [ENTER].
1 Pressing [INVERSE VIDEO] will return you to the OPTIONS menu.
1 Pressing [GRAPH] will bring up a new menu allowing you to insert printer control characters into the text. These are used to select different print styles such as emphasised and italics when the document is printed. See the CONTROL CHARACTERS section for more details.

1 Normally you scroll the text up or down one line at a time by moving the cursor to the top or bottom of the screen and `pushing' against the edge. With fast scroll on, the cursor moves down eight lines at a time, and moves up to the start of the last paragraph. This is useful for moving quickly about large documents.

1 If you wish to use a different BAUD RATE to 9600 baud, load up the RS232 version as described above then escape into BASIC by pressing [SYMBOL SHIFT] and [E]. Now add to LINE 100 of the BASIC the command to set the baud rate (ie. FORMAT LINE 4800).
1 If you wish to import a screen from another program, you should be careful not to exceed the ten-character limit when you originally name the file - otherwise you will have to rename it before loading into WM.
1 If you now load up the modified version you will find the baud rate set as required.
1 If it is a text-file, several more options are open. Also displayed is a line of status information on the bottom line. This tells you the current display column setting; the number of words in the file; the length of the file in characters and the number of character spaces free for use.

1 Headliner allows you to create your own graphics for use within Word-Master or other programs. The program works within Word-Master like Typeliner, so you can design your graphics at the same time as writing your text. Headiner comes complete with six `giant' fonts for titles & headlines, and has many powerful drawing and plotting functions: Draw, Circle, Arc, Box, Enlarge and Fill. The graphics shown here and those in the CLIP ART selection were produced with Headliner.

1 Another use for >column is to print in a wider column width than can be displayed. This ELITE paragraph is printed in 77 columns so as to be equal in width with the PICA paragraph above.This can be useful if you have a 120-column printer or if you want to use the full width of a standard 80-column printer.

1 You should be careful when using very large enlargements as it is possible to blow up a graphic to wider than the printer carriage. Word-Master uses the printer's 120 DPI mode, so a full screen blown up to *4 wide would comprise 256*4 or 1024 dots. On an 80 column printer there are only 120*8 or 960 dots to the eight inch line, which means that the right hand section of the graphic would be lost. It is also possible to expand a graphic to wider than the text column width. Although this doesn't do any harm, it does look a bit untidy.
1 You may find the special characters a bit hard on the eyesight (they are a bit small). There isn't really much you can do about this - the Spectrum display wasn't designed to print 64 characters across, and 32 characters is rather impractical for word-processing. The best quality display will be from a professional computer monitor, but with a bit of fine tuning a black & white TV will prove adequate. Portables are best, as the smaller screen improves the clarity.
1 You can move round in this mode using the cursor keys, handy for swapping round short phrases or words without using the BLOCKS routine. Any other key will return you to the main menu.
1 You can also produce combinations of pitches, though this depends on which combinations your printer supports. This text is printed in condensed pica.
1 When you have finished with the files here, delete some of them to make some space and load in the second file (demo2) for more information on Headers & Footers.

1 This means that the lines as displayed are all of varying lengths. The effect of this is that if you move the cursor to a position beyond the end of a line, then press a key to insert a character, you will find that the cursor jumps back to the end of the line. This sounds confusing but is easily apparent in use.
1 This is >fill justification. As you can see, the spaces between the words have been `filled out' where necessary to make both sides of the printed column even and straight. As this is achieved on output, you will not see the same results in the display, but note that the lines themselves have not been altered - only the spaces separating the words.
1 This does have the disadvantage of not being what-you-see is what-you-get, but can still be useful on occasion.
1 They do affect the printout though, by seleTrack-Info
1 The more advanced features are available through the command-line system described later, though for simple letter writing you will probably only need to use the commands affecting margins and justification.
1 The first incidence of the search phrase is found and the cursor moves to the start of the this and flashes. There are now three options. [SPACE] will quit the search, leaving the cursor at the word just found. [ENTER] will ignore the word, looking through the text to find any further occurrences. [DELETE] will replace the word with the `search$' - if this is blank, the word is simply deleted.
1 The demo's included on the cassette should be read through in order and with reference to the manual. Most of the commands and print options are demonstrated so you can quickly see how different print effects are produced with Word-Master.

1 Pressing [DELETE] when in this mode pulls all the text to the left, thus overwriting the character behind the cursor.
1 One problem with using the command line system to produce graphics is that you can't actually see what you are going to get before you print the document. The only solution is to carefully work out what you want beforehand and make a test-print or two in draft mode before the final print (this demo took me one test-print to get the margin settings right - mainly because I couldn't be bothered working them out).
1 Next you are asked for the `replace$'. After this input, if you inputted an empty `search$' you will return to the main routine.
1 MOVE block allows you to relocate the block anywhere in the textfile. Take the cursor to the new position and press [ENTER].
1 Less useful, but required on occasion, is >right justification. Here you can see that the right-hand margin is straight and the left-hand ragged. You should not use this or the >centre mode when you want the text to appear as it does on the screen, as you would if printing a list or table of figures.
1 LOAD "WM_RS232"
1 It is advisable to only use the characters A-Z, 1-0, and _ (underscore) in your filenames. It is probably also a good idea to add an extension to the name so you know what type of filTrack-Info
1 If you print this out, you will find the current page number (whatever you have set as the `first' on the PRINT menu) will be printed where the three zeros are above. Ideally you would want to incorporate this into a header or footer, for which you should see the appropriate section in the manual.
1 If you have tried printing this and your printer has just produced garbage or spurious characters then it is possible that your printer uses codes different to those being sent by the commands above. You will have to load the `custom!' file and compare the codes being used with those in the printer manual, and make any changes that are necessary.
1 FILE OPTIONS
1 FILE HANDLING
1 COPY block will copy the block to wherever you position the cursor, even if this is inside the present block (though I wouldn't recommend doing this.) As you might imagine, you cannot move a block to within itself.
1 Because Word-Master, Headliner and Typeliner were originally designed for the earlier Spectrums the ten-character limit was used. You can also use the extra characters, though if you try to save a file using these an error will result.
1 BLOCKS
1 As you can see, these two paragraphs are separated by a wide-space. You will also notice that this paragraph is
1 As you can see, if the first letter of the replace$ is lower case, then the case of the output string is matched with that of the word found. Remember that words which start sentences have a capital (upper case) letter, whereas the same word in the middle of a sentence could start with a lower case letter. This `toggling-case' function allows you to replace all the incidences of a word without worrying whether the word starts a sentence or not.
1 Another point to note is that (unless you use commands that override it) the screen layout represents exactly what will be printed. This can be very useful for tabular work, indented text etc.
1 And this text is printed in large-condensed pica! As you can see, the overall width of the printed column is the same as that above. When the >large setting is used, the printed output is automatically re-formatted by Word-Master to do this, though this does mean that the output is no longer what-you-see is what-you-get.
1 And now we are back to the pica pitch. This demo-file should have shown you the basics of using the command lines and the pitch commands, though there are many other combinations possible.
1 After marking the start and end you are prompted with the options available for the block. DELETE and SAVE are fairly self- explanatory, though be careful when deleting as the removed text cannot be recovered.
