I work like that, with Everest 3.3e, it's a little bit more efficient
than the Oasis editor ;-)
You must go to the toolbox, clic on the config icon, and edit tool 1
by selecting "external" editor and giving full pathname of Everest. Than
save your settings. A tip: make a copy of the EVEREST.CFG file in the
OASIS folder, because Everest cannot retrieve it in his own directory (at
least v3.3, I think there is a newer one).
I always wonder how programs like STzip or others can retrieve their
CFG or INF files under all circumstances, called from the desk from
another folder (regardless of the top window/application and name/full
path settings), called from a shell, etc... anyone knows?
Back to Everest, it's a really good tool... I just regret it doesnt
have support for ISO-LATIN-1 charset, for postings with french accents! I
must write with msdos/atari charset and then manually convert the mqueue
files with blinex... think I'll do a little prg to do it automatically
when I quit Everest, and also convert single percent (%) into double (%).
bye!
