Short: Fix errors Heddley 1.1 puts in documents Author: cs922097@ariel.cs.yorku.ca (David Zvekic) Uploader: cs922097 ariel cs yorku ca (David Zvekic) Type: text/hyper Architecture: m68k-amigaos Long: FixHeddley is (c) 1995 by David Zvekic, but freely distributable. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If you aren't using the right font you would not notice it but Heddley 1.1 by Edd Dumbill puts ugly errors in Amigaguide documents. Heddley is a great program and practically everyone uses it. I know because every other Amigaguide document I look at has these stupid errors. The error is that within link text Heddley puts ASCII character 160 instead of 32 for blank spaces. In many fonts ASCII 160 looks like a blank space, so this error does unnoticed by many Amigaguide authors. On my screen ASCII 160 looks like a little 'a' with an accent above it. Imagine seeing: 'TableaofaContentsaaa' instead of 'Table of Contents ' In any event FixHeddley replaces these characters with proper spaces. It also gives a nice little diagnostic about how many 'Heddley errors' it found. If you're a Heddley user you owe it to yourself to use FixHeddley to correct these errors. Using FixHeddley is easy. Usage from the CLI: Fixheddley [-r] FixHeddley will create a file with the same name with .fixed postpended to it. It doesn't write to the original file. If the -r option is used FixHeddley will replace the original file with the corrected file in one pass. David Zvekic June 8 1995 History ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1.1 -first public release 1.2 -Faster -Implemented -R option to correct Amigaguide files 'in place'. Instead of creating an additional file it just corrects the amigaguide file where it is. Saving much hassle playing around with .info files and renaming things.
