• golded problem

    From ALAN@1:135/392 to ALL on Sunday, March 27, 2022 15:46:00
    Hi there!

    I am having a problem with OpenXP.

    I don't know how to get Golded to work, I set it up in the editor
    section and ensure it takes by running through the rest of the dialog.

    Tried using the path to it in defining the editor

    ie: c:\Golded3\gedwin.exe.

    Nothing.

    Can't find my manual anywhere.

    In essence.

    Help!

    Cheers,

    Alan

    I think you have to add the correct parameters that golded.exe
    expects that represents the "message".

    If you go to Config/External/Editor.. and then press F1, you
    will see this as the HELP for the first field:

    Ί OpenXP does have its own built in editor which Ί
    Ί should do all you need. But if you really cannot part Ί
    Ί from your beloved old editor, then you can enter it Ί
    Ί here (incl. extension .COM or .EXE) Ί
    Ί Ί
    Ί The macro $FILE may be entered for the name of Ί
    Ί the file to be edited. Otherwise XP passes the file Ί
    Ί name as the only parameter to the editor. Ί
    Ί Ί
    Ί Linking in other tools Ί
    Ί If you use the internal editor but wish to call a Ί
    Ί programme *after* it, perhaps a text formatter or a Ί
    Ί signature generator, then you can also enter it here, Ί
    Ί but put a * in front of its name. Ί

    HTH!
