Pinpoint version 2.0.2 is functionally identical to version 1.3,
however substantial internal changes have been made to allow
compatibility with WordPerfect, AppleWriter, and the new Apple IIGS.
Pinpoint version 2.0.2 may be installed on the following applications:
AppleWorks (including version 2.0), ProDOS BASIC, Point-to-Point,
InfoMerge, RunRun, Manzanita BusinessWorks, ProFiler 2.2, AppleWriter,
and WordPerfect.
For owners of the new Apple IIGS:
To call up the Pinpoint Desktop Accessories, hold down the "Option"
key and press "P."
Running GraphMerge with AppleWorks 2.0 on the IIGS:
When run on the IIGS, AppleWorks 2.0 allocates the memory normally
dedicated to the double-hires video display to its code space. In
addition, it disables "shadowing" of the video memory on the IIGS, and
allocates the "shadow" memory to its desktop. This prevents
GraphMerge from displaying correctly on the GS screen. Currently,
once the video shadowing has been disabled by AppleWorks, the GS will
have to be cold-booted to re-enable video shadowing. The final
version of the GS System Finder will re-enable video shadowing
automatically. You will be able to run GraphMerge from any other
Pinpoint-compatible program. If you select GraphMerge while using
AppleWorks 2.0 on the GS, the following error message will be posted:
"Memory contention problem. GraphMerge cannot be run in AppleWorks
2.0 on the IIGS. GraphMerge can be run from other programs, however.
Press any key."
For WordPerfect owners:
To use the Pinpoint Desktop Accessories with WordPerfect you will need
to install Pinpoint onto both WordPerfect and BASIC or RunRun, our
ProDOS desktop manager. You will also have to use a new start-up
procedure. After installation, start up the previously modified Basic
or RunRun and run the file WORDP.SYS to start up WordPerfect with
Pinpoint. You will probably find it easier and more convenient to use
RunRun for this procedure. If you wish to make changes in your
Pinpoint system you will have to reinstall onto both WordPerfect and
RunRun or BASIC.
NOTE FOR APPLEWRITER PATCHERS: (we know you're out there)
The following information defines the memory locations Pinpoint uses
when installed on AppleWriter along with a few other details. If you
are not using any custom AppleWriter patches and don't understand any
of the information below, don't worry about this note.
Pinpoint installs itself onto the beginning of the file AW.SYSTEM and
modifies the file AWD.SYS. The Pinpoint code takes up the first $3500
bytes of the resultant AW.SYSTEM file. On the disk the memory map for
these files is as follows:
$2000:##--------------------------
## Pinpoint code
$5500##--------------------------
## AppleWriter
end# --------------------------
For this reason it is important to install any AppleWriter patches
BEFORE installing Pinpoint, or to add an offset of $3500 to any
AppleWriter patch to insure patching the right location.
When Pinpoint and AppleWriter are active in memory the AppleWriter
code is at its normal location and the Pinpoint keyboard checking
routine is at $7000 through $70FF. The patch to call the Pinpoint
keyboard routine is installed at location $235A.
There is a patch installed in the reset code so that all you
open-apple-reset fans can still get out of WPL the back way without
getting in anybody's way. Thanks to the AppleWriter power users who
pointed out to us this method of exiting WPL. This patch is installed
at location $20B6 and executes a small patch at $70E8 and then
continues. The area from $70EE through $70FF is currently unused and
may be used for your reset patch code if necessary.
SUMMARY OF CHANGES MADE IN PINPOINT VERSION 1.3
A variety of changes were made in Pinpoint version 1.3 that are still
included in version 2.0.2. In case you are not familiar with these
changes, they are detailed below.
PRINTER SUPPORT: Pinpoint 1.3 will print GraphMerge with most
combinations of popular printers and interfaces. Exceptions are
parallel printers that have been connected to the built-in serial
interface on the IIc via a serial-to-parallel converter.
Pinpoint supports the following printers for both graphics and text:
Apple ImageWriter I & II, DMP, and Scribe; C. Itoh ProWriter; NEC 8023
PC; Epson FX, RX, LX, MX, and MX w/ Graftrax+; Panasonic KX-P1091;
Smith Corona D-200; Hewlett Packard ThinkJet; Star Micronics SD-10.
The Okidata 84, 92, 93, 192, and 193 are supported for text printing
only. Contact technical support for a Graphmerge work-around. If
your printer is not listed here you can probably get it to print (text
only) using the "Custom Printer" option.
Pinpoint supports the following printer interfaces: Apple Super
Serial, IIc internal, and Parallel; Orange Micro Grappler + and
Serial Grappler; Microtek Dumpling GX and RV-611C; Interactive
PKASO/U; Practical Peripherals Printerface; Star Micronics Grafstar I
& II; Apricorn Parallel; Slot Buster Serial and Parallel; Spies
NicePrint; Epson APL; TextPrint Print-it!. Generic Pascal 1.1
standard or generic Basic 1.1 standard options accommodate most
unlisted interfaces, (for text printing only).
If both your printer and interface card are listed in the
installation, do not use any printer control characters.
MODEM SUPPORT: Pinpoint supports all 100% Hayes 'AT' command set
compatible external modems including Apple, Anchor Automation,
Prentice, Prometheus, and U.S. Robotics with standard interface
cards. Also most manual dial external modems with standard serial
interface cards are supported.
As of version 1.3, Pinpoint will also work with the following internal
modems: Cermetek AppleMate 1200; Hayes MicroModem II and IIe; Zoom
Modem IIe; MicroCom Era II*; Prometheus 1200a.
*Communications only, Dialer requires Modem Enhancement Kit.
To use the Novation AppleCat or the Avatex 1200, you will need the
Modem Enhancement Kit.
UNDOCUMENTED FEATURES:
- The Notepad accessory now stores notes that are more compatible with
AppleWorks. Word-wrapping is improved and notes may be loaded into
AppleWorks and checked with the Pinpoint Pop-up Spelling Checker.
- The Calculator, Calendar, and Communications accessories are
modified to accommodate RunRun with clock recognition.
Pinpoint and extended RAM cards:
- When the Pinpoint accessories are being loaded into a RAM drive,
Pinpoint will tell you which files are being copied into RAM by
displaying such messages as: COPYING FILE "CALENDAR.PP" The loading
procedure can be aborted at any time by hitting the escape key.
- Pinpoint will always check the RAM drive first for any accessory
file, even data files such as APPOINTMENTS.PP and LOGONMAC.PP.
Communications:
- The terminal window in the communications accessory has been widened
to 79 columns. Incoming text will no longer be formatted to narrow
margins.
- Control characters may be sent in the log-on macros using the ^X
format. For example, to send a Control-C in your log-on macro, you
would type ^C in the macro window.
- If all or part of your log-on macro is being sent out too quickly,
"wait time" may now be imbedded in the log-on macros. To make
Pinpoint wait a certain amount of time before sending out a line of
your macro, type ^n before the particular line, (where n represents a
number between 1 and 9).
New installation command:
- When installing Pinpoint onto an application, you may instruct
Pinpoint to modify a system file other than the first one it finds by
using the open-apple-P command. As you all know, Pinpoint posts the
message, "ABOUT TO ENHANCE (FILE NAME)" during the installation
routine. If the listed file name is not the one you want Pinpoint to
modify, you should press open-apple-P. You will be prompted to "Enter
Value" at the bottom of the screen. Type in the ProDOS prefix of the
file you want Pinpoint to modify, press RETURN, and Pinpoint will
install itself at this location. This feature is especially useful
for high-capacity disks.
WILL PINPOINT WORK ON AN UNENHANCED APPLE IIe?
NO. Pinpoint uses the new, expanded instruction set of the 65C02
microprocessor used in both in the Apple IIc, and the Enhanced Apple
IIe (standard model shipped since March 1985, or upgraded older Apple
IIe's). Pinpoint also uses an improved video display character set
for pop-up windows, menus and crisp hi-res and double hi-res graphics
with icon characters.
Almost all programs that run on the old IIe will run on the Enhanced
IIe. Visit your Apple Dealer and ask for a copy of the Apple II
Compatibility Guide that lists the Apple II programs the Enhancement
Kit may affect.
YES. Pinpoint can be run on unenhanced 128K Apple IIe's with the
simple addition of Pinpoint's Apple IIe Upgrade Kit. Our IIe upgrade
kit offers the same 65C02 micro processor and character generator ROM
that Apple provides in their IIe Enhancement Kit, and priced at a mere
$29.00 it represents a cost-effective alternative to enhancing your
IIe. The Pinpoint Apple II Upgrade Kit does not "enhance" your IIe as
defined by Apple, but it runs any Pinpoint software and most software
that requires the Enhanced IIe. Our upgrade does not include the new
proprietary CD and EF ROMS provided in the Apple Enhancement Kit.
Pinpoint and most other programs do not address these new ROMs, but
some programs that require the Enhanced IIe may not run on a
Pinpoint-upgraded machine for this reason. Apple Computer requires us
to inform you that you use our Kit at your own risk; the Kit is only
for Apple IIe computers; the Kit contains copyrighted material owned
by Apple Computer used with their permission.
Certain older software may display highlighted uppercase characters as
icons; a superficial difficulty that does not affect program
operation.
I HAVE AN APPLE IIe WITH THE EXTENDED 80 COLUMN CARD. ISN'T THIS AN
ENHANCED APPLE IIe?
NO. Pinpoint requires the improved 65C02 microprocessor and new video
display ROMs. Either visit your Apple Dealer and have them Enhance
your Apple IIe, or order the Pinpoint Apple IIe Upgrade Kit.
CAN I LOAD THE PINPOINT ACCESSORIES INTO RAM?
YES. If you have an extended memory card with more than 128k on
board, you can configure your system so that the Pinpoint accessories
appear in the blink of an eye. Pinpoint accessories can be run from
any valid ProDOS storage device. These include 5.25" floppy disks,
3.5" disks, hard disks like the ProFile and the Sider, and RAMdisks.
A RAM disk is a portion of electronic memory that has been configured
to behave exactly like a physical ProDOS disk drive.
There are two basic types of RAM cards, RAM cards that configure
themselves automatically, and RAM cards that depend on extra software
for configuration. The Apple II Memory Expansion Card, the AST
SprintDisk, and the Applied Engineering RAMFactor card all reside in
slots one through seven and use on-board firmware to configure
themselves as a RAM disk each time the computer is turned on.
Pinpoint will automatically copy the accessory files onto any of these
RAM cards when you start up your system.
The additional memory offered by the Applied Engineering RAMWorks and
ZRAM, and the CheckMate MultiRAM E and C, can only be accessed via
special software provided by the manufacturers. But don't worry, it
is quite possible to configure a Pinpoint system that will load the
accessory files onto any of these cards. If you are using a RAMWorks
card, you will need version 4.7 or later of the Applied Engineering
Desktop Expander. If you have a Checkmate MultiRAM card you should
have version 4.3 or later of the Checkmate AppleWorks Memory
Expander.
Both CheckMate and Applied Engineering now provide instructions
detailing how to use their software to automatically copy the Pinpoint
accessories to RAM upon start-up. Many of our customers have found
these routines to be difficult to follow and awkward to execute. We
think the simplest way of configuring an extended RAM system is to use
our RAM Enhancement Kit. This leads us to the next question . . .
WHAT IS THE PINPOINT RAM ENHANCEMENT KIT?
The RAM Enhancement kit allows you to tailor your extended memory to
your exact needs. After leading you through a simple menu-driven
configuration routine, the RAM Enhancement Kit creates an AppleWorks
start-up disk that automatically loads the Pinpoint accessories and up
to sixteen additional ProDOS files into RAM. If your RAM card
requires partitioning or other software modifications, the RAM
Enhancement Kit will manage all the complicated third-party software
for you. All you have to do is put the start-up disk in a drive and
turn on the machine, forget about cumbersome start-up commands! It
also includes an easy to use "point and shoot" program selector, the
"RAM Switcher," that permits you to exit any non-copy-protected ProDOS
application (such as AppleWorks) and then immediately begin running
another. In fact, you can use the RAM Enhancement Kit to copy several
programs into RAM and use the RAM switcher to choose between them.
With the RAM Enhancement Kit you're RAM Disk becomes an integrated
high-performance work space.
NOTE: There are some reports that not all ProDOS applications work in
a partitioned RAM Disk. Consult your software manufacturer for
details.
WHEN I TRY TO FIND GRAPHIC FILES IN GRAPHMERGE, THE PROGRAM KEEPS
SAYING, "NO FILES FOUND." WHAT GIVES?
Try putting the disk that contains the graphic file in a different
drive. Graphmerge needs to be able to get to your word processing
file and your graphic file at the same time. The disk containing the
graphic file and the disk containing the word processing file must be
in separate disk drives. If you have only one disk drive, both files
must be on the same disk.
WHEN PINPOINT BOOTS UP MY SCREEN LOOKS GARBLED. WHY?
Sounds like the double hi-res jumper on your Extended 80 Column Card
is missing (open). Look at the card at the keyboard end for a two-pin
jumper called J1. This should have a jumper (clip) across the two
pins. If the jumper isn't there, you've just found the problem. If
you don't have any jumpers see your Apple dealer and get one. Be
careful not to disturb anything else inside your Apple IIe.
PINPOINT SOMETIMES ASKS ME FOR A "WORK DISK," WHAT SHOULD I DO?
Every time you call up a Pinpoint Accessory Pinpoint needs to write a
temporary work file. If there is not enough room on any of the disks
in your drives, the program will prompt you for a "Work Disk." This
disk can be any ProDOS disk with 40k of free space.
WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT VERSION 1.3 OF PINPOINT?
Version 1.3 contains many new features not provided in the earlier
versions of Pinpoint. When we first released Pinpoint we asked our
customers to send us comments about the program and changes and
enhancements they would like to see. Our users, being a vociferous
lot, responded enthusiastically and we appreciate it! We tried to
incorporate as many suggestions as possible in version 1.3 of
Pinpoint. We widened the terminal window in the communications
accessory, and added the ability to send control characters and imbed
wait time in the logon macros. We made the installation simpler by
incorporating the third-party printer drivers that used to be sold
separately as the Printer Enhancement Kit. We also improved
performance of Pinpoint with extended memory cards. For a complete
list of the changes, download the file PP202 from the MAUG DL.
DO I GET NEW FEATURES WITH PINPOINT VERSION 2.0.2?
NO. There are no new accessories or additions to existing
accessories. What you do get is compatibility with the new Apple IIGS
and the ability to install Pinpoint onto WordPerfect and
AppleWriter. That's two new programs that can benefit from Pinpoint's
pop-up world of convenience. Thanks to those of you who let us know
that you wanted to see Pinpoint on your word processor.
WILL PINPOINT WORK WITH APPLEWORKS 2.0?
YES. Any version of Pinpoint will work with any version of
AppleWorks.
IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT WORKING WITH PINPOINT ON THE
APPLE IIGS?
YES. As you may have noticed, the old familiar "Closed-Apple" key is
not on the new GS keyboard. To call up the Pinpoint accessories, hold
down the "Option" key and press "P".
WILL I HAVE ANY PRINTING PROBLEMS WITH PINPOINT?
PROBABLY NOT. Pinpoint supports just about every popular
printer/interface combination for text printing. As of version 1.3
Pinpoint supports most combinations for printing Graphmerge.
Exceptions are parallel printers that have been connected to the
built-in serial interface on the IIc via a serial-to-parallel
converter.
Pinpoint supports the following printers for both graphics and text:
Apple ImageWriter I & II, DMP, and Scribe; C. Itoh ProWriter; NEC 8023
PC; Epson FX, RX, LX, MX, and MX w/ Graftrax+; Panasonic KX-P1091;
Smith Corona D-200; Hewlett Packard ThinkJet; Star Micronics SD-10.
The Okidata 84,92,93,192,193 are supported for text printing only,
contact technical support for a Graphmerge work-around.
Pinpoint supports the following printer interfaces: Apple Super
Serial, IIc internal, and Parallel; Orange Micro Grappler + and
Serial Grappler; Microtek Dumpling GX and RV-611C; Interactive
PKASO/U; Practical Peripherals Printerface; Star Micronics Grafstar I
& II; Apricorn Parallel; Slot Buster serial and parallel; Spies
NicePrint; Epson APL; TextPrint Print-it!. Generic Pascal 1.1
standard or generic Basic 1.1 standard options accommodate most
unlisted interfaces, (for text printing only).
WHAT MODEMS DOES PINPOINT SUPPORT?
Pinpoint supports all 100% Hayes 'AT' command set compatible external
modems including Apple, Anchor Automation, Prentice, Prometheus, and
U.S. Robotics with standard interface cards. Also most manual dial
external modems with standard serial interface cards are supported.
As of version 1.3 Pinpoint will also work with the following internal
modems: Cermetek AppleMate 1200; Hayes MicroModem II and IIe; Zoom
Modem IIe; MicroCom Era II (Communications only, Dialer requires
Modem Enhancement Kit); Prometheus 1200a.
To use the Novation AppleCat or the Avatex 1200, you will need the
Modem Enhancement Kit.
WHAT IS THE MODEM ENHANCEMENT KIT?
The Modem Enhancement Kit provides substantial benefits to advanced
communications users. The Modem Enhancement Kit is required if you
wish to use Pinpoint with the Novation AppleCat, and the Avatex 1200.
It is also required if you wish to use the Dialer accessory with a
Microcom Era 2.
Features include:
- Ability to set new default terminal settings
- Define handshake characters
- Keyboard macros
- Keyboard and video character remapping
for encryption.
- Selective incoming and outgoing character
filters
- Change dial command
HOW DO I FIND OUT WHAT VERSION OF PINPOINT I HAVE?
Every time you start up an application that has Pinpoint installed on
it, the version number of Pinpoint will appear briefly in the upper
left corner of the screen. You may also start up the Pinpoint install
disk and select "Tutorial," the version number will flash by in the
left hand corner of the screen.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SPELLING CHECKER
Will the Spelling Checker work with AppleWorks 2.0?
You need version 2.0 or later of the Spelling Checker to run with
AppleWorks 2.0. Spelling Checker 2.0 is compatible with all versions
of both AppleWorks and Pinpoint. Any version of Pinpoint is
compatible with AppleWorks 2.0.
Will the Spelling Checker work on the IIGS?
Yes, any version of the Spelling Checker will run on the IIGS.
Do I need two disk drives to use the Spelling Checker?
In most cases, yes, but this is not a rigid requirement. The Spelling
Checker needs to access the dictionaries and the the SPELLER.PP system
file at the same time. What this means is that you need to have about
150k in storage space somewhere in your system. The capacity of a
5.25" disk is 140k so there isn't quite enough room on a single disk
to fit everything you need. However, you do not need to have two
5.25" drives. It is possible to configure the Spelling Checker to run
on a single drive system with an extended memory card. The Spelling
Checker will work with any valid ProDOS storage device, including RAM
drives, the UniDisk 3.5, and most hard disks.
Where do I set the standard location of dictionary files?
When you call up the Spelling Checker, the first thing the program
does is look for the dictionary files. The program will start looking
wherever you earlier set the standard location of dictionary files.
During the Spelling Checker installation you should set the standard
location to wherever you plan to store the dictionaries. If you are
only using floppy drives, you should select slot 6, drive 2. In fact,
no matter what kind of storage devices you are using, the Spelling
Checker will find the dictionaries as long as they are in the root
directory of an on-line disk. If you are planning to store the
dictionaries in a subdirectory of a high capacity disk, it is very
important that you set the standard location using the complete ProDOS
path.
Can I put the Spelling Checker directly on AppleWorks?
No. You need to install the Spelling Checker onto the Pinpoint
Desktop Accessories and then install Pinpoint onto AppleWorks before
you can use the Spelling Checker on AppleWorks.
I keep getting a message that says "WRONG VERSION NUMBER" when I call
up the Spelling Checker. What's wrong?
Check the Spelling Checker manual page 1.3 under "Software
Requirements." You can only use the Spelling Checker with Pinpoint
version 1.1 or later.
Why is the Spelling Checker so slow? Is the Document Checker faster?
The primary advantage of our Pop-up Spelling Checker is its on-line
convenience. For checking documents shorter than two pages it is
faster than quitting AppleWorks, starting up another program, checking
your document, restarting AppleWorks, and finally printing your
file. One convenient way to use the Spelling Checker is to set it in
"word-check" mode and spell check single words as you type. No other
spelling checker for the Apple II offers such speed for single-word
checking. The Pop-up Spelling Checker operates entirely on screen and
at the same time as AppleWorks. This system allows you to access the
Spelling Checker quickly and easily, but is also means the Spelling
Checker cannot take full advantage of your computer the same way that
a stand-alone spelling checker can. For this reason the Pop-up
Spelling Checker may be too slow for practical use on your longer
documents. Our Document Checker is a stand alone spelling checker
that uses the same dictionary as the Pop-up Spelling Checker. It
makes an excellent partner to the Pop-up Speller especially for longer
documents. The Document Checker lets you create several different
personal dictionaries. In our bench-mark test the Document Checker
proved faster than Sensible Speller, MegaWorks, and Webster's New
World Spelling Checker. For optimum performance, you may be
interested in our $99.00 Twin Pack, which includes both the Spelling
Checker and the Document Checker.
The Spelling Checker pops up correctly but when I tell it to spell
check, the cursor just moves through the document and doesn't stop on
misspelled words.
You have set the Spelling Checker in "Word Count Only" mode. The key
word here is ONLY. When you select this option the program only
counts the words in your document, it will not spell check. It is
generally not a good idea to select "Word Count Only" as one of your
default options. If you have "Document Summary" on, you will still be
shown a total word count.
How do I find out the version number of my Spelling Checker?
If you have already installed the Spelling Checker, the program will
tell you version number each time you call it up. You can also boot
up the installation disk and after the graphic introduction has run,
the version number will appear briefly in the upper left hand corner
of the screen.
Why do I sometimes get a disk I/O error when I call up the Spelling
Checker?
If you have just two floppy disk drives, place the copy of the
Spelling Checker Accessory Disk in drive I, and the copy of the
Spelling Checker Dictionary disk in drive II. If you reverse this
order, or try to swap the Spelling Checker and Dictionary disks in and
out of the same disk drive, you will get a disk I/O error. See page
3.2 of the Spelling Checker manual.
How do I get the Spelling Checker and its Dictionaries into RAM, and
how much space do they take up in RAM?
The simplest way to load the Spelling Checker and its dictionaries
into RAM is with the RAM Enhancement Kit, although there are many
other ways of doing this. If you have installed the Spelling Checker
onto Pinpoint, the Spelling Checker will show up on the "Desktop
Accessory Autocopy" screen in the RAM Enhancement Kit. To copy
SPELLER.PP to the RAM drive all you have to do is select "yes" at this
screen. At the "ProDOS Files Autocopy" screen, type in
/PP.DICT/MAIN.DICT and /PP.DICT/AUX.DICT.S and your dictionary files
will be copied to the RAM drive. The Spelling Checker and its
dictionaries take up at least 140k in RAM. To fit all of the Pinpoint
accessories, the Spelling Checker, and the dictionary files, you will
need a 384k RAM drive.
How do I save changes in my personal dictionary from RAM to disk?
You don't have to use a fancy file copying routine to save the changes
to your personal dictionary to disk from a RAM drive. If you use the
procedure outlined in Appendix C of the Spelling Checker manual,
"Removing Words From Your Personal Dictionary," you can do it without
even leaving AppleWorks. After you have added some works to your
personal dictionary, load AUX.DICT.S into AppleWorks from /RAM as an
ASCII text file. If you make no changes to the file and print the
file as an ASCII text file on your dictionary disk, replacing the old
AUX.DICT.S all the changes you made will be saved in this procedure.
Since I started copying the Spelling Checker and the dictionaries to
RAM, AppleWorks no longer counts down all of the functions as it
auto-loads. Have I done something wrong?
There is a simple explanation for this. When you set up part of your
extended memory card as a RAM drive, that memory is no longer
available for AppleWorks to load into. AppleWorks needs at least 256k
to autoload. If you have a 512k RAM card and have set up a 384 RAM
drive, only 128k is left for AppleWorks. If you leave off some of the
accessories, you can reduce your RAM drive size to 256k and then
AppleWorks will load fine. If you have room on your card for more
chips, it is not very expensive to bring your card up to one meg.
Many electronic stores sell inexpensive RAM chips. A one meg card
should keep you satisfied for at least a few months.
Do I need all the files on the Spelling Checker disk to run the
program?
No. The only file from the Spelling Checker disk that you need to run
the program is SPELLER.PP. You should copy this file to your
accessory disk. The rest of the files are used only in the
installation procedure.
Do I need to keep the Main Dictionary and the Personal Dictionary in
the same place?
Both the Main Dictionary and the Personal Dictionary (AUX.DICT.S) have
to be in the same place. If you do not copy AUX.DICT.S to RAM, the
program will create a new one for you when you add a word to the
dictionary.
Sometimes after I've been using the Spelling Checker, AppleWorks seems
to loose track of some of my disk drives. Any clue?
This problem is due to a slight incompatibility between Pinpoint
version 1.3 and older versions of the Spelling Checker. If you are
using Pinpoint 1.3, you must use version 1.0.2 or later of the
Spelling Checker. About 70% of our users already have version 1.0.2
of the Spelling Checker, so this problem doesn't come up too often.
Incidentally, versions 1.0 and 1.0.1 of the Spelling Checker had no
major problems on their own, the problems only arose in their
compatibility with 1.3 Pinpoint.
