                        F11 Version 2.0
                        ===============

Program Description
-------------------

F11 is an enhancement for
the WORD,DATA,AGENDA, and SPREADSHEET applications
inbuilt in PSION Series 3a.

 - change automatically letters from lower case to upper case.
 - insert automatically spaces.
 - doubles automatically hyphens.
 - insert todays date
 - insert non keyboard characters from character table
 - insert standard text phrases from custom defined phrase books.
 - easy typing of national characters (umlauts).
 - Find file function with preview
 - Establish hyperlinks within and between documents
 - Execute KMAC-macros and OPL-functions

 Full documentation as online manual.
 

Platforms
---------

 This program runs on PSION S3a and ACORN PocketBook II computers.

 
 It also runs on the S3a-Emulator with S3a or PC screen size.
  Due to the different keyboard layout some key combinations do not work.

  To access F11-Menu and F11-Help use ALT-TAB followed by F9 or F10.


Applications
------------
   Speed up typing and document creation.
   Merge data from various sources into documents.
   F11 supports WORD, WORD-aliases such as the text editor, the OPL-editor,
   DATA (alternatively DATAVIEW), the AGENDA, and the SPREADSHEET.


Requirements
------------

   The amount of disc space needed is 50k-62k for the program
   depending on the options and 34k for the manual.
 

RepPoc-Interface
----------------

   From RepPoc V2.33 onwards, F11 can be optionally invoked by RepPoc
   to edit forms and reports. A special function has been supplied to
   edit forms: PSION-R from the F11-menu or PSION-TAB followed by "." or ":"
   shows all RepPoc text functions as defined in RPFUNC.DBF.
   On selection F11 inserts the text function into the form.


Compatibility
-------------


 - F11 and Macro systems.

   Several users reported trouble with using F11 and macro systems
   (KMAC or Macro V2.0) in parallel. Since F11 can now record and run
   KMAC macros, there is not really a need to do so.

-  F11 and DataView
   - Another file cannot be opened as main file using the file finder
     when DataView is in update mode. Instead, invoke the file finder from
     the view mode using Shift-MENU and the Find-File menu function.
   - It is not possible to merge two data files
   - TAB-characters in phrases are converted to blanks when F11 is used
     with DataView


When things go wrong
--------------------

   Problem:   Not enough memory or not enough diskspace on internal disk.
   
   Solution:  Switching off F11 (PSION-X in F11 menu) will release some
              memory. Work is continued under the native WORD processor.
              (see also next problem)


   Problem:   F11 was disabled with PSION-X in F11 menu or automatically
              after an error situation. The SYSTEM button was pressed,
              and now you cannot find the suspended WORD editor session.
              
   Solution:  You have created an orphan. Simply reopen the document under F11.

              Alternativly, use Shift-SYSTEM to step through the open
              applications until you reach your document.
              With this method editing is continued without the F11 functions.

   Problem:   You open many documents in parallel.
              F11 responds with "No system memory" or "O/S error".

   Solution:  Close another open document or another open application
              to free system resources.

   Problem:   When you open more than 1 document in parallel
              the open-file-list under F11 seems to be upside down

   Solution:  None.

   Problem:   You pulled the SSD where F11 was installed.
              The system shows a screen asking you to insert the SSD
              but seems not to answer to the Enter-key or the ESC-key.

   Solution:  Use CONTROL-Enter or CONTROL-ESC to answer the prompt.
              


The following situation should never occur, however, if they occur:


   Problem:   F11 does not terminate or shows "busy" continuously.
   
   Solution:  Press the SYSTEM button.
              Then use the System function "Kill application".
              (You will not loose DATA. Restart F11 by reopening the same
               document.)

   Problem:   The system freezes.
   
   Solution:  Reset the machine. Press the reset button (the little hole
              left of the SYSTEM button) using a wire or similar. Then
              press the ON button.
              Do not remove the batteries as this would wipe out the
              whole internal disk!

   Problem:   The machine was switched off. After switching on again
              you cannot enter the code word.
   
   Solution:  Press Shift-ESC to disable F11. Then enter the code word.
   
New in version V2.05
--------------------
    - Additional options for hyphen control.
    
New in version V2.03
--------------------

    - F11 supports now the Spreadsheet application (F11s).
      By default F11s uses a special phrases book (shtphras.wrd).
    
    - Pressing PSION-TAB will no longer insert chevrons into the current
      document. Instead the chevrons appear in the top left corner of the
      screen. This preserves existing selections.

    - There is now a new menu title with 3 separate functions to
        - edit the phrase book (B)
        - to switch to another phrase book (Y)
        - to create a new phrase book (N)

    - You can now open the phrase book out of the phrase index (PSION-TAB+TAB)
      by pressing Shift-ENTER.

    - You can now invoke KMAC scripts and macros in the same way as
      any phrase.
      You must have created an entry in the phrase book to link
      the keyword to a script file, and the KMAC module LPC.DYL
      must be installed. Please see the manual for further details.

    - You can now invoke OPL programs in the same way as any phrase.
      You must have created an entry in the phrase book to link
      the keyword to an OPO-module. (You even may call KMAC commands
      from inside the OPO module). Please see the manual for further
      details.

    - You can now record keypresses. The result is stored as a KMAC
      script file. To run this file out of F11, you must also create
      an entry in the phrase book (see above). Some actions that
      perform the merging of temporary files into a document are not
      recorded.
      

New in version V1.60
--------------------
    - F11 now supports the AGENDA including the note editor (F11a).

    - a wider variety of files can be opened through the file finder.
    

New in version V1.50
--------------------
    - New hypertext feature.
      Include hypertext references into your documents and navigate
      between different chapters or different documents with one keystroke.
      Use PSION-HELP to create a hyperlink, PSION-ENTER to jump to a
      hyperlink, and PSION-Shift-ENTER to jump back.
      For details see the manual.
      This function is available for F11-WORD, F11-TEXT, F11-OPL, but not
      for F11-DATA. (In F11-OPL the hyperlinks are mapped to procedure
      calls. Just press PSION-ENTER on a procedure name to jump to that
      procedure.)
      You can also establish hotlinks to (but not from) DATA-records,
      Spreadsheets, GIF-, PCX-, PIC-images (PocView V1.16 required).
      
    - PSION-ESC (Undo) can now be applied with a delay. It will always
      undo the last substitution. Undo has also become a menu item.
      
    - New menu function "Make phrase". This function can only be invoked
      when text was selected. The selection will be converted into a
      phrase and will be appended at the end of the current phrase book.

    - F11 for DATA now supports DataView PRO. If Dataview.app is installed
      F11 will automatically use DataView instead of DATA. To use F11 with
      the original DATA application, rename Dataview.app into something
      else. Some F11 functions are restricted with Dataview (see compatibility)

New in version V1.45
--------------------
    - Find file function, Navigation in DATA files.
      Type a sequence of character keys to specify a search string. The window
      will only display records starting with the specified string.
      The search string is displayed in the top right corner of the
      preview window.
      To shorten the search string type DEL, to clear it, type CNTRL-DEL.

New in version V1.41
--------------------
    - Umlaut logic:
      New options: Umlaut off, replace in words, replace always.

    - Additional options for hyphen substitution and conversion to upper case.

    - F11 supports now multiple WORD-file lists with individual default templates.

    - We have added an OPL example file for using F11 with ReadCIS. (RCF11.OPL)

    - The character code is displayed as you move the cursor across
      the character table.


New in version V1.4
-------------------

    - New F11D frontend to support the DATA application.
      Now typing is easy in DATA, too!

    - PSION-ESC can now be used to undo the last F11-character conversion such
      as automatic spaces, automatic upper key, hyphen conversion, umlaut conversion.

      After insertion of a phrase PSION-ESC has the same effect as PSION-DEL.
      (removal of the phrase)
