Printer output is sent via the printer driver set up by PrinterEd. If 17cpi is specified the control codes specified under 'Alt.Font' are sent. 10cpi printout is preceded by the 'User Defined' control codes (if specified) this allows 10cpi output to appear in NLQ on printers that support this feature. Printer output can be page-by-page or continuous. Continuous output only works satisfactorily with fILOFAX fanfold paper which is an exact number of %H6%1%H6%/%H5%6%H5% of an inch long (See my letter of 4 September 1988 for comments on the sources and quality of fILOFAX paper). Selecting the page-by-page option allows the printer to be adjusted (even switched off and on) between each printed page. This option allows linefeeds to be sent to the printer from the Z88 keyboard and allows pages to be skipped (ie sent to the screen but not the printer). If you specify printer output you can set the left margin. This is useful if you are using the Showerings paper which has two fILOFAX pages side by side on each sheet. If you load and list the programs you will find that they have many procedures in common. This is inefficient in terms of filing system memory space but means each module is smaller than one combined module, containing all procedures, would be. This means that you are less likely to get the 'no room' error when the modules are chained. %H1%Notes on Z88diary%H1% All dates are validated on input for days in month and leap years. Dates within the range 1-Jan-81 and 31-Dec-2069 are valid. Diaries are printed using two pages per day (Monday to Sunday). Specifying the same date for both the start and finish date will print the diary for the week containing that date. If there are no diary entries within the date range specified you will be warned and asked if you wish to proceed and print a blank diary. This means that you won't have to buy another blank diary from fILOFAX until 2070! Auto-indent can be set to 0, 1 or 2 and an active Z88 diary entry will be wrapped over two fILOFAX lines. With auto-indent set at 1, eight spaces (a Tab in the Z88 diary) are inserted before the wrapped portion of the line is printed. With auto-indent as 0 no spaces are inserted when a line is wrapped, auto-indent 2 inserts sixteen. If you set out your diary with keywords as suggested in the Z88 manual, set auto-indent to 1. %H1%Notes on Z88add%H1% Z88add prints out (or displays) addresses entered in PipeDream as described in the Z88 manual. The spreadsheet of addresses must be sorted in PipeDream and then saved as plain text. Z88add needs to know: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The combined length of the name fields should not exceed the width of fILOFAX paper (ie 30 characters at 10cpi or 51 characters at 17cpi). Other field lengths should also be less than these values. I look forward to hearing from you with your comments. Simon Berry (0828) %CO:B,12,58% ---------------------------------------------------------- Z88fax Z88add Z88diary ---------------------------------------------------------- The range of initials for which you want a printout. You do not have to print the whole file and even within a range of initials you can skip pages at print time. Name fields: the number of fields (columns) used to store names. In the example file four fields (the default) are used for a name as follows: The information in the 'name fields' is combined at print time to form the first line of the address. Sort field: by default this is set to 4 (that is column D). In the example file the addresses are sorted by surname/company name. Maximum field number: this is the maximum number of columns, or fields, used in the PipeDream file to store an address. By default this is set at ten as this makes for an attractive layout and economic use of fILOFAX paper. It can be increased by pressing any key and reduced, 1 at-a- time, by use of the down-arrow. Right or Left Justification. Addresses can be printed or displayed justified to the left or right. Right justification is the default setting and generally more appropriate. %CO:C,12,46% CLI file to set /LIBRARY as the default directory, start BASIC and CHain Z88fax The menu program which CHains Z88add or Z88diary The program that prints a PipeDream address database file in fILOFAX format The program that prints a Z88 diary file in fILOFAX format Column A: Title Column B: First Name Column C: Middle Initials Column D: Surname (or Company Name) %CO:D,12,36%%CO:E,12,24%%CO:F,12,12%
