Using the Program
Word seems sensitive about the caps lock being on. Try turning it off and try again.
If the WordStar Command Emulator won't print a marked block you are almost certainly using Word as your email editor within Outlook and trying to print from there. For some reason, Outlook prevents this command from working.
As this is such a useful function, but clashes with WordStar's move left one word command, Edit, Select All has been assigned to ALT+A.
You can still use the Word and Windows standard shortcut commands, except where they clash with WordStar commands that are supplied by the WordStar Command Emulator. ^C for example is changed from Copy to Page Down (in this case ALT+C has been substituted for the standard Windows ^C, Copy command).
Â
Word doesn't provide a facility to track the cursor position. To implement this would need quite a lot of code and the insertion of markers every time you moved the cursor. ^QP will, however, take to to the start position of all navigational jumps except for ^QP itself, although this may be added later. A full description of the commands ^QP returns to is available here.
