Well here it is... Yet another text file viewer. I wrote this one because I was sick of all the other viewers out there. The only ones I really liked were built into other programs. So here it is... A small, extremely FAST text file viewer. I have been getting some criticism over my choice for a scroll bar. The reason for this is that the regular large-style 3D bar is annoying when you are trying to read the text. That is why I chose this style. Also, I am no longer going to Implode the executable. Because of this the final code size is approximately 4k larger than before. This is, however, actually smaller than the old code! Features: - Handling for powerpacked files - Reqtools requesters - Real time scroll bar - Handles ANSI codes & tabs - SMALL code, FAST scrolling! - Environment parameters (interlace mode, color) - Text search - Looks great! Copyright Notices: This program makes use of both PowerPacker.library and ReqTools.library which are Copyright (C) Nico François. Installation: To install, place Moor in your C: directory. You will probably want to rename it "More", or whatever you call your current poor text viewer. If you do not already have "powerpacker.library" or "reqtools.library", you will need to place these files in your LIBS: directory. They are included with this archive. To run, just type MOOR . If there is not enough contiguous memory to load the file, or the file does not exist you will get an error message. Command Keys: RAmiga+Q or Escape - Quit and exit MOOR Up/Down - Move up/down in the file 1 line at a time Shift Up/Shift Down, Backspace/Space, Page Up/Page Down - Move up/down a screen at a time Left/Right - Move left/right two positions Shift Left/Right - Move 20 character positions to the left/right Home or ` - Go to the top of the file End or 0 - Go to the bottom of the file Keys 1-9 - Move to that percentage in the file (I.E. pressing 3 would place you 30% into the file) RAmiga+O or O - Load a new file RAmiga+S or S - Search for a text string RAmiga+N or N - Show next occurence of text Open, Quit, and Search, and Find Next can now be activated via pulldown menus. Search Mode: When you perform a search, Moor highlights all occurences of the text it found in the file and then goes to the first occurence. You can scroll through the file manually and they will be visibly highlighted. The "Find Next" option will go to the next occurence of text found that is not on the current screen. Environment Settings: There are currently two options that can be set. Code Option  Description  Default I Interlace Places screen in interlace mode Non-Interlace C Color Swap Swaps screen text/background colors Black on White To change these options, place this statement in your startup sequence: "setenv MOOR " (Order of codes does not matter) For example, to swap the screen colors to white text on a black background and put Moor into interlace mode, the command would be: "setenv MOOR IC" Miscellaneous Info: Tab size is currently set at 5. This will be able to be changed in later versions. I am looking for nice icons (one for the Moor itself and one for the document file). If you want to design some icons and I like them, I will include them in the next available version and give you credit for them. Soon to come: - More pull-down menu support - Custom screen size - Printing options - XPR compression support - Iconify Bug Reports: If you have any bugs report, PLEASE tell me your system setup (OS version, CPU type, memory etc..). If you can tell me any information about the file you were trying to view, where it was located, or anything else that would be very helpful. I am running on OS2.0 on a Amiga 2500 with a 68020. If you are using systems other than this configuration I would like to hear from you. Let me know how it runs! This program is currently FreeWare. You may freely distribute MOOR as long as the original archive is kept intact. You cannot, however, sell this software. Fred Fish has my permission to include MOOR in his disks. (If anyone knows how to submit a file to Fred Fish, please let me know.) Like anyone, I appreciate getting things in the mail - especially from other countries! Drop me a note and tell me what you think of MOOR! If you want to help send me through college, feel free to send me something you feel my time or effort is worth.

I take no responsibility if anything bad happens. History: v1.5 - Added Powerpacker and ReqTools support! This reduced code size. The "Find Next" command has now been added for easier searching. I am also (for the moment) going to stop Imploding the code. Release Date: May 18, 1993 v1.4 - Added pulldown menus - increased loading time drastically (5x!) - Added ANSI hanling - Faster scrolling - Smaller more efficient code v1.35 - Made Moor use the topaz 8 font - People with system default fonts greater than 8x8 were screwing up the display. Also screen now uses prefs screen default size. Release Date: April 30, 1993 v1.3 - Added search mode, Fixed memory handling bugs (certain circumstances would corrupt memory), Executable now compressed with Imploder v4.0 Release Date: April 29, 1993 (Yes, the same as v1.2!) v1.2 - Added TAB handling, Environment variable settings, Use pragmas to reduce code size, Smoother scroll on short jumps Release Date: April 29, 1993 v1.1 - Faster scrolling, Interlace mode, ASL File Requester, Option to load a new file Release Date: April 28, 1993 v1.0 - First version Release Date: April 27, 1993
