Dear Folks, it is totally with the greatest pleasure that I announce my
latest word add-on, I have finally written the conditional text mark-up
macros. By highlighting your document with different colors, it is now
possible to produce over a dozen editions of the one document from the one
source. It is possible to combine two or more sub-editions into one
publishing run, so you now have the flexibility to truly Single Source using
MS-Word.
Its in the files section, in the Software Tools directory, called Ed.zip.
Its a template designed to be placed into your Startup directory.
Webmasters may place this file online on their site, so long as they notify
me via email first.
There's no doco, its too simple :-) Please DO tell your peers and get this
sucka out where its needed. If you ever see me in a bar, you owe me a drink
or sixty :-)
For those interested, it took about 5 hours. I will gratefully accept all
feedback and enhancement requests.
Tis now knock off time for this week - I NEEDS a beer now.
