MORE INFORMATION
================
 
         Grammatik 5 - version 1.0 - May 15, 1993
 
 This file contains the latest information about Grammatik 5.
 
 - If you have a monochrome monitor and a color card (as is the
   case with most laptops), it may be difficult to read Grammatik
   screens. You can solve this in any one of three ways:
 
   1. Add the statement: "MODE BW80" to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
                      - or -
   2. Start Grammatik 5 with the monochrome switch by typing the
      command: "gmk -m" at the command line.
                      - or -
   3. At the Grammatik 5 main screen, use the "Preferences" menu,
      select "Screen attributes," and then select one of the
      Black and White screen options.
 
 - For multi-user licensing and network information, view or print
   the Word file NETWORK.DOC on your distribution disk.
 
 - If your word processor is Microsoft Word 5 or later, you can
   run it with "hot key" access to Grammatik 5 using the GMKWP
   program. Below is important information about using GMKWP:
 
   - If your Word file has never been saved, be sure to save it
     before running Grammatik. Do NOT save as RTF format. The
     file format of the file you are proofreading MUST match the
     Grammatik's default Word Processor, displayed on Grammatik's
     main screen (usually Microsoft Word 4, 5, 5.5, 6.0).
 
   - If, after the File Save As dialog box appears, Word displays
     another dialog box ("File already exists", for example) Word
     will beep. This means Grammatik will not run. You must
     choose File/Exit after the file has been successfully saved.
 
   - Grammatik's hot key will not work if the "Use Word 5.0 Function
     Keys" option is on.
 
   - When you press the hot key inside Word and the Save As dialog
     is brought up, you must press ENTER to start Grammatik. Clicking
     the OK button with the mouse will not start Grammatik.
 
   - Macros created in Word and assigned to quick keys CTRL+0 through
     CTRL+9 will not work with the GMKWP command.
 
   - The Grammatik hot key won't work while a Word dialog is open.
 
   - ALT+DOWN ARROW key won't drop down a list box when the Grammatik
     hot key is used.
 
   - CTRL+TAB will not insert a tab in a Word table when Grammatik is
     running. Tab characters can be cut and pasted from
     outside the table.
 
   - You must use the alternate hot keys for the following:
 
        Action       Hot key (won't work) Alternate (will work)
        --------------------------------------------------------------
 
        Save As          F12              ALT+F2
        Save             SHIFT+F12        ALT+SHIFT+F2
        Open             CTRL+F12         ALT+CTRL+F2
        Print            CTRL+SHIFT+F12   SHIFT+F9
        Next field       F11              ALT+F1
        Prev field       SHIFT+F11        ALT+SHIFT+F1
        Edit Undo        ALT+BACKSPACE    n/a
        Copy to scrap    CTRL+INS         n/a
        Select document  CTRL+Numpad5
        Prev Paragraph   CTRL+UP ARROW    ALT+F10, LEFT ARROW, RIGHT ARROW
        Next Paragraph   CTRL+DOWN ARROW  ALT+F10, RIGHT ARROW
 
        NOTE: You can change the default hot key for Grammatik from
        ALT+G to SHIFT+F5 and Word's hot keys will work. You can
        Change Grammatik's default hot key by choosing Word Processor
        from the Preferences menu, and using the "Set Hot Key"
        command button.
 
 - This release of Grammatik 5 requires at least 471 kilobytes
   of free RAM to run. You can use the DOS 'CHKDSK' command to see
   how much free RAM is on your system. If CHKDSK reports less
   than 482,304 bytes free, you will need to free conventional
   memory before running Grammatik 5.
