Shell Macros To "Hotkey" Between WP And |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: There is a new capability in WordPerfect 5.1 that makes integration of WP and DrawPerfect a little nicer. GOING FROM WP TO DRAW: If you are running WP 5.1 under Shell (it must be the new 2.1 Shell), and DrawPerfect is listed somewhere on your current shell menu, then in Figure Edit, WP will detect that Draw is available and give DrawPerfect as an additional menu option on the Figure Edit menu. Selecting that option will save the current image to the clipboard and automatically run a shell macro called WPTODRAW.SHM to take you over into DrawPerfect, where the clipboard will be retrieved as the current drawing. The WPTODRAW.SHM must reside in either your WP 5.1 directory or the default shell directory (Shell looks for a shell macro in the directory where the SHELL.FIL is (XXXSHELL.FIL on a network), rather than the directory where SHELL.EXE is.) GOING FROM DRAW TO WP: You must use a DrawPerfect version dated 10/24/89 or later. The File pull-down menu now includes an additional option -- WordPerfect. If you are not running under Shell (2.1 or later), or if WP is not on the current shell menu, then the option is in brackets (not available). Otherwise, you can choose that option from the pull-down menu and it will save the current drawing to the clipboard and automatically run a shell macro called DRAWTOWP.SHM that takes you into WordPerfect and retrieves the clipboard (if you are in Figure Edit in WP). The shell macros necessary for this to work should be placed in your default shell directory. These macros, along with Shell 2.1, will be shipped with DrawPerfect. The user will be given instructions with DrawPerfect in using WP and Draw together as described above. |
