Word-Ex ROM R. McDermott BBC Telesoftware - Reviews for Education: Software: Word-Ex ROM. Supplier: Norwich Computer services, 18 Mile End Road, NORWICH, NR4 7BR Price: `30 inc. post & packing and VAT. Other Equipment required: Wordwise or Wordwise Plus wordprocessor Review by R.McDermott: (Teacher, Comprehensive School in Essex). Word-Ex, the Wordwise users expansiom ROM, is a 16K machine code ROM which expands the power and flexibility of Wordwise and Wordwise Plus. The new facilities that Word-Ex provides are accessed through a linked menu system which is simple and easy to use in practice. These menus can be called up either from the edit mode or, as with the help menu, from the Wordwise menu mode, although the manual is not too clear on this point. Facilities available are: FILE ACCESS. Word-Ex makes the process of loading and saving files much easier, using an on-screen catalogue through which you can move using the cursor keys, selecting your choice by pressing return. It remembers the previous file name and allows simple key pressing to both display the catalogue of the current drive and to delete files. FUNCTION KEYS: The function keys can be programmed via the menu system and stored on disc for reloading when required. The definitions can be called up by pressing <ctrl/shift/function key>. This can be a very powerful means of editing and manipulating text especially with Wordwise where you don't have the advantage of segment programming. SORTING: Sorting is extremely fast since it is done in machine code. A sort that would take "Wordwise Plus" 9 minutes can be sorted in as many seconds. Sorting can be alphabetic, numeric. in ascending or descending order, on the whole text or any marked section. Page 1 Word-Ex ROM R. McDermott LABEL PRINTING: Word-Ex has a very flexible label printing facility which can: adjust the label format to suit your printer; check the layout of the addresses; count the labels; and allow comment lines to be appended to each address (such lines will not be printed out). CASE CHANGING: A set of case changing facilities is provided which works on either the whole text or a marked section. Words can be changed such that they are either: a) all in upper case b) all in lower case c) all set as titles, or d) "intelligently" case changed. EDITING FACILITIES: Extra keyboard commands are provided for a fast word search, character and word inversion, delete line and delete at cursor position. These facilities can be accessed using simple single key strokes. MISCELLANEOUS FACILITIES: These include segment switching if you are using Wordwise Plus (again using single key strokes), and a ` sign change which changes the default value sent to the printer. Word-Ex can also be accessed through star commands which can be used for Word-Ex applications programmes. Thus, if you are using Wordwise Plus you can write a programme to load each of a set of files in turn, sort it, remove duplicates and save it back to disc. SUMMARY: Word-Ex is a very useful addition to Wordwise or Wordwise Plus and offers most of the features of Inter-Word, apart from WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get), and continuous processing. It goes beyond Inter-Word by providing high speed sorting, label printing, case changing, alphabetic file access and function key programming. Users of Wordwise or Wordwise Plus word-processors (those that do the typing) will find this a powerful addition to their word processor. It seems an unfortunate tradition that good software such a this comes complete with a manual that is difficult to follow, does not give any examples and is too brief. Page 2
