Subject: [NTLK] works - footnotes

Hello Eric:

If you have purchased a licensed copy of Dashboard for your Newton, you can
go into Dashboard's preferences section and alter one of the scripts that
handles fonts. It took me a bit of experimentation, but I found that by
altering one or two tiny things in one line of the script template, I could
quickly change fonts to different types or sizes. I went through the font
template script, duplicated it numerous times, changed a line or two of
code, and then renamed each subsequent file.
Once I get my licensed copy of "PackMan", I should be able to assemble a
nice collection of quick font-changing tools in .PKG form, for the benefit
of the Newton masses.

So to recap, I do have scripts that will allow you to quickly change a
selected bit of text in Notepad to a subscript, superscript, or whatever
font type/style/size that you want (within reason). Let me know if you have
a working copy of Dashboard and GestureLaunch. Then, I'll see if I can find
the time to post the script coding for making your font 'superscripted' for
footnotes. I hope this is helpful.
