TMAX Introduction
TMAX (Tedit Macros And eXtensions) is a package that extends the
capabilities of TEdit by providing a menu of commands that allow the
user to do such things as indexing, writing a sorted index file,
arbitrary numbering, creating a list of notes, referencing numbered
objects by their numeric value, and writing a table-of-contents file.
There is also an extensive help file describing all the features of
TMAX. Rather than include examples of how to use these features, the
help file was written using these features and is both an example and
a description of using TMAX.
Before you can read the help file, you must first load the TMAX.DCOM
file from the {CSLI}<LISP.KOTO> directory. Then copy
{CSLI}<LISP.KOTO>TMAX.TEDIT to your local disk. Open up a TEdit window
and do a TEdit Get on {DSK}TMAX.TEDIT. The reason for copying the file
to the local disk is that, due to problems with the leaf server on
csli, TMAX runs a lot smoother when the source files are on non-leaf
hosts.
When you load the TMAX.TEDIT file, you will see the TMAX menu appended
to the top of your TEdit window. You invoke TMAX commands by buttoning
items in this menu. If you would like a hardcopy of the help file,
first button Update and then Insert Endnotes (both in the TMAX menu).
Then point the mouse at the black title bar at the top of the TEdit
window and select Hardcopy from the right button menu.
