SavageEd Documentation

SavageEd is designed to be a small, fast editor-
front utilyzing Microsoft Windows riched20.dll

Most basic functions you would expect in Notepad.exe
are included in SavageEd.  This short documentation
will cover only items that may differ.

File Menu > New Window
This menu option executes another instance of SavageEd.

Options > Font
Allows you to select font and point size.  This will
affect changes to the entire document.

Options > Autosave
With this option selected, SavageEd will save the current
document without prompting upon quitting (including quitting
via ESC key).

Options > Stay on Top
This option makes the SavageEd window a "top" window,
meaning it stays on top of other non-top windows.

Options > Save Configuration
	>> Use Private Profile
		This saves the selected configuration options to
		a private initialization file in the current
		directory.

	>> Use Registry
		SavageEd is non-invasive, it will not make any
		additions to your system registry without your
		prior approval via this option.
		If neither of the above 2 options is selected,
		SavageEd will not be able to save your current
		window size/position and selected options.

	>> Uninstall Registry
		If you have previously used the "Use Registry" 
		option and wish to discontinue use of SavageEd
		(why anyone would do such a thing is beyond me),
		use this option to uninstall any changes made to
		your registry.  Once uninstalled, you may manually
		delete any copies of SavageEd on your system.

Log files.
If you wish to use the log feature, it is compatible to the .LOG
feature of Notepad.exe, with an additional extension.

Type .LOG at the top of your document, on the first line, with
nothing else on that line.  From now on, anytime you open the
file with SavageEd, the current system date/time stamp is appended
to the bottom of the document.

Type .LOG< at the top of your document, on the first line, with
nothing else on that line.  From now on, anytime you open the
file with SavageEd, the current system date/time stamp is inserted
at the top of the document, just below the .LOG< .  So the most
recent updates will appear near the top of the document instead of
the bottom.
