Note: An acceptable answer to this question can only be answered by Google Answers member "maniac-ga." The question (below) was answered successfully, but I couldn't figure out how to indicate so. I appreciate the leg-work done by user "maniac" so this question is being re-posted as a courtesy. Thank you. Please take your credit! [ Original question... ] Regarding the Borland Pascal 7 compiler IDE for MS-DOS (no longer supported by Borland), I'm looking for information I once viewed briefly online, but can no longer find. It was a patch to customize the size of the edit window in the IDE (the integrated editor) by removing the menu and status lines located at the top and bottom of the editor window. This increased the total lines available for text editing (by two lines). I believe it also offered an auto-corrector feature and the ability to modify the function of the editor's keys (even those which are not intended to be modified by the Borland package's included key customizing utility called TEMC). As I recall, this patch was provided for public use. Last seen online perhaps two years ago. I have found a similar auto-corrector for Borland Pascal on the Garbo archive but this is not the same "patch" I'm looking for. I've have not gone through Garbo or other locations with a fine tooth comb to insure I've not overlooked this. I'm not certain is was available amid the common repository of "old" turbo/borland pascal downloads. An acceptable answer would include at least the author's name and email address,if not a posted web page for the patch as well. ->> |

Hello Marinkotech, Thanks for the kind words and follow up. To answer your "how to use Google Answers" question, a question clarification from you saying my "request for question clarification" was correct would have been sufficient. I would then "answer" the question to get the credit (and avoid another $0.50 fee to Google). [yes - that sounds awful but is pretty easy to do] The "new" answer to go with the question is as follows: I can't tell for sure, but the following site has something that appears to match your question. http://www.wpusa.dynip.com/files2/PROGLIB/ scroll down to BPR38.ZIP, dated 1996, and includes "auto corrector" "extended text mode" "adds 2 lines" (by removing menu & status lines) and more. I found this using a search with terms such as Borland Pascal 7 compiler IDE MS-DOS auto corrector and the site listed appears in the top few items and was the only hit with the zip file that I found. Good luck in using this product. --Maniac |

Found exactly what I couldn't find (but didn't care to keep searching for). Very specific question answered a couple days later. Excellent. |
