READ ME FIRST! TeXtelmExtel Betatest 1995.09.26
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now this release really took a long time...

Sorry to all who have sent me interesting suggestions and to whom
I said "Ok, no problemo!" and who do not find their ideas realized
in this release. The new spellchecker took much longer than I thought
and is still far from being perfect. But some other features might
also be quite interesting: take a look at the improved "Match" command
that will work now with e.g. \label and \ref, the "Complete Command"
feature (which AUCTeX-users may have missed) or the support for the
(not yet released) WTeX. Some things are now optional, and several
bugs (like the messing-up of Unix-files) have been fixed.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

standard tools, up to 10 userdefined tools can be set up. Its unique
features are: built-in spellchecker, automatic OEM / ANSI character
