From Morris,
I am aware that
Callnext is Robert's baby. I feel that he could add a useful feature that will
bypass all files that have com, exe, and doc extensions. The latter I only use
if I compiled a file in Microsoft word, otherwise I use the txt
extension in XyWrite. To Callnext, I added the function XP so that a
XyWrite program will open in the expanded view.
Before becoming aware of U2, I
wrote a simple program that will also enable me to move from one file to
another, but my program needed some tinkering on my part that modified the files
on the directory. Callnext avoids this from what I can make out by using the VA
Settings of VA $DP, DT and possibly also DR as well.
I wonder if Carl, ould show what
lines of code are necessary to bypass the doc and exe extension
files.
Often e-mail messages which I feel are necessary to save, when opening them,
have returns in middle of sentences that makes it more difficult to read, and
which also uses more disk space. Is there a U2 routine that deals with this
annoyance and HTML files that need modifying. Now I am using a few simple macros
to edit these e-mails with some manual help. I also use the search replace
command CI to alter returns that have colon attached such at the end of a
sentence or paragraph and then I find it is easier to deal with those returns
attached to a word , most often not at the end of a line and which should not be
there.
I am also
pleased to announce to the group that on the March 6th, I celebrated my
50th wedding anniversary and in a month's time I will turn 74 years old. When I
look back, everything has happened so fast and the years seemed to move with
speed of light or the blink of an eye lid. Something worth pondering about
is the elements of time and space.
With regards,
Morris
