AddFormatting.rexx

A macro for adding formatting to Final Writer bibliographies, endnotes, and
tables of illustrations.

Final Writer does not allow the insertion of formatting (italics, underlining,
or bold) in its automatically-created bibliography, endnote, and table of
illustrations sections. As a bibliography without italics or underlining is
unacceptable for any sort of professional work, I wrote a quick and dirty
macro to allow permanent formatting information to be included with these
sections.

Copy AddFormatting.rexx to FinalWriter/FWMacros (or where ever you keep your
Final Writer macros). Follow the instructions on page 3-29 of the Final Writer
4 manual for adding the macro to the user menu.

See the Final Writer documentation for instructions on how to create a Table
of Illustrations (page 10-13), Endnotes (page 10-15), and Bibliographies (page
10-19). Although the example given below is for endnotes, the same procedure
applies for the bibliography and the table of illustrations.

When you insert (or edit) an endnote, enter the following character sequences
immediately before and immediately after the text to be formatted:

   _i_   to start/end italics
   _u_   to start/end underlining
   _b_   to start/end bold

Multiple formats may be applied to a single word/phrase, but the character
sequences must be as above. For example,

   _b_Phi Delta Kappan_b_

will result in the phrase "Phi Delta Kappan" being bolded, while

   _b__i_Phi Delta Kappan_i__b_

will result in that same phrase being both bolded and italicized.

Create and go to the Endnote section, then run the AddFormatting.rexx macro.
The "Find Text" requestor will appear and the marked text will be formatted.
After several screen flashes, the Find requestor will display "Done
Formatting." Close the requestor and be glad you didn't have to format all
that by hand each time you generated the section.
