Re: the format-out function?



I don't think the DTR has "format", either.
It's a fairly large task to implement this, you'd need to rip off some of
the Gwydion code or start from scratch with some sort of wrapper that
concatenates the data into one big string then adds it to a text /TextEdit
field. The DTR doesn't have a SIOW/SIOUX-style stdio window built in.
Mac d2c is now nearly at the end of a 2-month "week" of preparation for its
first release, and PowerMacMindy has been very usable for some time now.
They both support format and format-out.
