DME editor
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away


See User information
I was looking for an editor with view wordwrap capabilities, and had a hit on Matt Dillon's DME,

I was very glad to see it had an OS4 version, but am totally puzzled how to use this
I just see an empty window
I can type in text of course buthow can i use the commands listed?
There is a save (as) commnd listed, but it is not mapped to some keycombination. SAVEOLD is mapped and i could use it,

So main question is how can i map a command to a keuy/mouse combination?

What do you mean by 'commands listed' ?

Unless you messed up the instalation there should be a standard menu, though the keyboard shortcuts are anything but standard.

So the default way of using Save As is right mouse button->Menu->Project->SaveAs

There should be a file called .edrc in S:

try adding

map A-a (aslsave)

to the top area where the other map commands are then edit the menu label for save as to

menuadd Project (Save-As (<A>-a)) (aslsave)

This isn't necessary it just reminds you that you mapped the saveas function to RAmiga-a

I used to use dme a lot but not so much these days having moved on to CodeBench for most of my coding needs. Still have it as a user button in filer though.

What's wrong with NotePad? Just change the WORDWRAP tooltype to "YES", and voila!

i was looking for a macro texteditor wth that capability.
I am isng Notepad thart way

DME seems has intresting possibilities butits wordwrap is not a view wordwrap as Notrpad's: ot breakss down long lines as most txteditors do
Windows Notetab seems to have 'view wordwrap'
