Ever wanted to insert some simple text to a Delphi TMemo or TRichEdit but you did not want to use resource files and do it the simple way?

Like this:

 Memo1.Lines.Add('For other installation notes, including minimum system');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('requirements, installing from a network or shared drive,');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('and descriptions of potential install-time problems, see ');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('README.TXT at the root of your CD.');

Tracy Sandbrook has made a simple program for DPSC Collection subscribers that will do this for you the easy way.

All you do is paste in the text or open a text, pascal etc., file.

An Example:

You paste in the editor (Editor1) this text:

For other installation notes, including minimum system
requirements, installing from a network or shared drive,
and descriptions of potential install-time problems, see
README.TXT at the root of your CD.

And then you click on the Create Output buttom and you get this text in Editor2:

 Memo1.Lines.Add('For other installation notes, including minimum system');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('requirements, installing from a network or shared drive,');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('and descriptions of potential install-time problems, see ');
 Memo1.Lines.Add('README.TXT at the root of your CD.');

You then click on the Select&Copy button and then paste directly into the Delphi Code Editor.
