What is somewhat doable and very useful is to create macros that will massage NWC Find/Replace macros into analogous NWP macros. I've been working on building this up as I have time. As far as that goes, I can also suggest that NWP Find/Replace macros are a lot less crazymaking if they are built in ...

Emoticon (Smiley) Substitution in Macros Driving Me Nuts!
I had commonly been finding that typing certain strings in macros cause emoticons to be substituted for the strings I'm trying to type. Sometimes typing something new in the replace string of a Find and Replace macro will even cause a substitution to occur back in the find string. It's like walking ...

I just spent some time trying out iClip. and had the same problems: sluggish copies and pastes, and a crash (usually within a few minutes) that is always triggered by either a copy or paste. As soon as I disable them, there's no crashing/stall problem with Nisus. CopyPaste and iClip both operate as ...

Incompatibilities with Clipboard Managers
NW Pro gets very prone to stalling and eventually crashing when a clipboard manager application (CopyPaste) or preference pane (PTHPasteboard). Those are the two that I've tried, and can't get any stability with either one. NW Pro seems to be the only program I use (and I use many) that does not pla...

Distinguishing Between Undefined and Default Attributes
One of the problems that I am finding with NW Pro macros is that there does not seem to be a clear delineation between undefined attributes (Any Font, Any, Size, Any Text Color, Any Font Style, etc.) and the attributes of the default text style. NW Classic was very clear in this respect. I'd appreci...

WordPerfect 6 is the only other one I've tried. (And that only because it was part of the initial configuration). SheepShaver can be a real bear to get running at first. But at this point, Nisus Writer is the only Classic application I still need. I'm hoping that Nisus Writer Pro can finish that, bu...

Perl Header: Send Text as RTF
Can you pass on any references or guidance in terms of how the #Send Text as RTF header might be used as a means of manipulating attributed text within a Perl block. I'm wondering if I could build some commands around these to make up for the aspects of attribute-sensitive PowerFind Pro that are not...

Hamid, there's really no problem with the format. It's a text file generated by a custom Word macro with the extension .xtg. NWP questions the ,xtg extension, but opens it fine as text. I can really do all that I need to do by hand. I'm just trying to complete a Nisus macro to handle it automaticall...
