|Oto w jaki sposob o zawartosci EUROPE20.ZIP pisze autor programu:
|
| EUROPEAN For MS Windows (Version 2.0) DESCRIPTION
| EUROPEAN is a shareware Package for MS Windows. It allows the user to
|add those additional letters having various diacritical marks as well as
|several unique characters for European languages using the Latin
|(non-Cyrillic) alphabet. Many of these characters are not provided as
|extended ANSI characters for the standard Arial (Universal/Helvetica) and
|New Times Roman fonts that come with MS Windows. These diacritical marks
|include the grave, acute, tilde, dieresis (umlaut), Hungarian umlaut,
|macron, breve, circumflex, caron, ring, cedilla, lenis, asper, and several
|others with non-household names. Special letters include the slash O and
|L, German double S, and AE.
| Currently, the following 23 languages are supported:
| Albanian Latvian (Lettish)
| Croatian Lithuanian
| Czech Norwegian
| Danish Polish
| Dutch Portuguese
| Esperanto Roumanian
| Estonian Slovak
| Finnish Slovenian
| French Spanish
| German Swedish
| Hungarian Turkish
| Italian
|EUROPEAN is an economical and affordable alternative
|to commercial foreign language word processors and add-on fonts costing
|$99 and more. Individual characters are mapped in ANSI locations 033 - 114
|(82 uppercase letters), 128 - 213 (85 lowercase letters), while other
|special characters are located at 224 - 231. As in most word processors
|running under MS Windows, single characters are easily inserted at the
|cursor position by using the following key strokes using the numeric
|keypad with the NumLock key on:
| <ALT> + <0> + <ANSI code> That is, while pressing the ALT
|key, enter 0 and then the 3-number ANSI code. For example, pressing ALT
|0041 gives , while pressing ALT 0178 gives ¤. Using shareware packages
|like FontShow, Printers Assistant, FontMonster, OKFonts, TypeView, etc.,
|allows you to conveniently make an ANSI map of the characters. For
|standard letters, no having diacritical marks, you then return to using
|either the Arial (Universal/Helvetica), or New Times Roman font. The trial
|version includes only the Helvetica font. An alternate and more
|convenient method of entering characters is to use Foreigner, which is
|available as fornr310.zip using anonymous ftp from ftp.cica.indiana,edu in
|the pub/pc/win3/util directory. It is a better alternative to MS Windows'
|charmap utility.
