WEdit.BAS was created on a dark night when all the MUDs around were down... excepting my own and the ones I don't go on. =) Now since the MUD I ab'ed for was down, and my MUD didn't have an OLC (for some reason the goddamned things wont compile on my SunOS), I decided that the time had come for yet another off-line creator. WEdit was written for those poor SOBs of us who have CRAP computers, and yet can be used even by those with powerful computers. It also seems to have fixed some of the bugs of editors such as MUDEdit (in regards to rooms). In my case, it was written on a 286 laptop with a 4-color CGA monitor. (Don't get much worse, and of you do, it should STILL work =). It's very simple to use (I hope). I don't proclaim it bug free, but I've used it myself, and have only one problem which is detailed below. This will be followed by a few other ?Edit.BAS programs in the VERY near future (OEdit.BAS, ZEdit.BAS, MEdit.BAS, etc.). This is version 1.0. This README was written the same day as the program. IE, this is NEW. Find anything wrong? Email me, please. Use this program? Email me, please. =) Hate this program? Send it to /dev/null. BUGs/PROBLEMS: -------------- 1.) I'm not sure about the syntax for doors, so there are no door options. As of now, you can only use exits. Someone send me the syntax and I'll update it asap and make v.1.1. =) 2.) As per QBasic quirks, you can't use commas. I hope to fiddle around and fix it so that you can, but that means I read in key by key, and then backspacing is a bitch... so, at the moment, no commas. You can very easily add them in by manually editing the .wld file afterwards. This is not designed to edit existing .wld files, it is designed to create them. Don't use the # of an existing .wld file, IT WILL OVERWRITE IT, NOT APPEND. I'll make the above fixes when I can, and as soon as I can I will port this over to Turbo Pascal and make it a true _editor_. But I'll still support the .BAS programs for the sake of compatibility w/ older (like my own) machines. 1/16/97, silk@ici.net
