File contents
KEYWORD: Novel, or just A Novelty? KeyWord is a program which offers a new way of looking at the teletext service. With KeyWord, you don't have to follow through long chains of index pages to find the information you want. You simply type in a keyword and the pages containing that keyword are found with a single teletext cycle. In fact, anyone desperate to try out this fun program should go off and do so now - although this document goes into some depth on how to use KeyWord, you actually know enough already to get 90% of the benefit from using it. See you later! Welcome back... Now you've seen the program in action the instructions below might be easier to follow. You will soon learn the knack of choosing your words carefully. It is not very useful, for example, to type NEWS as this will swamp you with pages - many of which will only be references to the news pages elsewhere. You should be more precise, and key LATEST NEWS or SPORTS NEWS. Sometimes, you may be too precise: if you are waiting for the latest red-hot political scandal, you may have asked for MRS. THATCHER, which would miss any items about PRIME MINISTER THATCHER or MARGARET HILDA THATCHER. In this case, you would simply key THATCHER. *==*==* The program also allows you to find pages in the traditional way, by number. However, if you simply type in the number of the page you want, KeyWord will think you are looking for a page with that number in it, as text. To make sure KeyWord understands that you want a page of that number, first press function key SHIFT-F0. The cursor will then move up to the page number area where you must type in a three digit page number. Notice that all special characters in this system are shifted: SHIFT-F0 to SHIFT-F9, and SHIFT-RIGHT-ARROW, and SHIFT-LEFT-ARROW. This may seem a little awkward. The reason this was done was to allow you to re-distribute the functions to whichever keys you prefer. This is possible because the unshifted keys remain as soft-keys, including the cursor keys and the copy-key. Thus you can put the select-page command mentioned above on, say, F4 by issuing the command: *KEY 4 |!|@ F0 is |!|@, F1 is |!|A, and so on up to F9 which is |!|I. *==*==* The other thing you will need to be able to do is to change channel. This is easily done. To switch to channel two, press SHIFT-F2, to channel three, SHIFT-F3 and so on. The KeyWord program has one other feature of note: it has some very sneaky code which can display the screen in upper-half/lower-half style just as televisions do. This is a feature of the BBC Micro that even the people at Acorn didn't know about! Unfortunately, it works by doing strange things to the video chips, and is not guaranteed to work on everybody's system. So if it works on yours, consider it a bonus - if it doesn't, don't complain! The keys you use to get at all the features mentioned in this file are also summarised within the program itself. You will get the help page any time you press escape. *==*==* The final comments on KeyWord are concerned with the way pages are stored and updated. If a page contains the text string which was requested, or the number matches the number keyed, then the page will be accepted. Up to ten pages may be captured in this way, and the 10 slots can be filled very quickly indeed. (Try looking for a page containing simply the letter A, for example.) Once those ten slots are full, no more pages can be received until you tell KeyWord that you have seen the page you are looking at and are ready to move on to the next one. You do this by pressing RETURN. You will now see the next page on the screen, and the highlight cursor on the bottom row will move on to the next slot. This action has not only shown you the next page, but has also told the system that you are finished with the page you have just looked at. This allows KeyWord to put any page for which it did not have room into that discarded slot. As you read each page in turn, the cursor will advance one slot each time, until you reach the tenth slot - at which point it will wrap round to the first slot again. If there were less that ten pages with the keyword in it, the unfilled slots would have been blank as you stepped through them. Had you wanted to see the other pages, but not discard the one you were looking at above, you could have wandered up and down the slots by using the SHIFT-CURSOR KEYS. SHIFT-RIGHT-ARROW is very similar in effect to RETURN, with the sole exception that the page just vacated is NOT discarded, but remains there until you go back to it to discard it with the RETURN key. SHIFT-LEFT-ARROW works just like its counterpart, but in the reverse direction. *==*==* Finally, one tiny detail I overlooked above: If ever a page is received which has the same page number AND sub-page number (e.g. Page 701 subpage 8) as one already stored, the system shall update that page with the new copy. This is not problematic on BBC channels, where every page has a different sub-page number when it should, however, it could be confusing on the IBA channels where different versions of a page often share the same sub-page number. *==*==* I realise this may have been more detailed in places than you may have wished - however you are now armed with all the information to make best use of KeyWord... so be off, and have fun.
