————————————————————————HI,
Ifanyone can read German (I assume this is German), I'd appreciate any kind
of translation, summation or general idea of what it is about. Thanks, – al

DIESES PROGRAMM FUNKTIONIERT NUR UNTER KICKSTART 2.0!!!
=======================================================
Dieses Programm ist nur ein quick hack, es dient dazu, CEDPro 2.12 online
zu patchen, soda_ bei entsprechender Auflvsung und Bildschirmgrv_e der
Bildschirm des Programmes entweder im Productivity-Modus oder im
SuperHires-Interlaced-Modus gevffnet wird. Zusdtzlich wird dem Programm
wieder beigebracht, in Requestern die Men|-Shortcuts zu verwenden, wdhrend
eine String-Gadget aktiviert ist (Nebeneffekt: mit Control+Cursortaste
kann jetzt in String-Gadgets wortweise gesprungen werden).
Here's how:
– F|r den Productivity-Modus mu_ die Bildschirmauflvsung (Hvhe und Breite)
der Overscan-Auflvsung des Productivity-Modus entsprechen (siehe
Prefs/Overscan) und der Bildschirm mu_ im Hires-Interlace-Modus gevffnet
werden.
– F|r den SuperHires-Interlace-Modus mu_ die Bildschirmauflvsung (Hvhe und
Breite) der Overscan-Auflvsung des SuperHires-Interlaced-Modus
entsprechen (siehe Prefs/Overscan) und der Bildschirm mu_ im
Hires-Interlace-Modus gevffnet werden.
Bis die Leute von ASDG auf die Idee kommen ihren Editor upzudaten, d|rfte
dieses 2576-Byte-Programm wohl langen. Da das Programm sich nicht von der
es startenden Shell abkoppelt, mu_ es mittels `run >nil: <nil: cedtrick'
in den Hintergrund gestartet werden. Mit Control+C ld_t sich CEDTrick
wieder entfernen, was aber erst nachdem CEDPro verlassen wurde (`Quit and
die') zu empfehlen ist, da es sonst beim Aufrufen des ndchsten Requesters
u einem Absuturz kommen wird. Da CEDTrick u.A. an dem sehr hdufig
pazierten OpenWindow()-Library-Vektor herumpfuscht, rate ich
generell davon ab, das Programm nach dem Starten zu beenden.
Der Quellcode liegt dierogramm nicht bei, da das Programm einige
Al,
It's talking about a patch called CEDtrick that allows CED Pro 2.12
to work with the new ECS modes.
At least that's what I think it says. It's been a LONG time since
I tried to read German.
Don
Yup….that's what it says. 🙂 It also mentions something about a
change to the way some string gadgets work (I think). It requires
2.0 too.
That's about all I got out of it (besides what you said). It was
kinda tough to read because the special German characters that were
used to compose the message were either missing, or translated to a
new character.
Here's a full translation of the text:
THIS PROGRAM ONLY WORKS UNDER KICKSTART 2.0!!!
==============================================
This program ist just a quick hack. It patches CEDPro 2.12 so that
the screen will change displaymode to Productivity or
SuperHires-Iterlaved depending on the given screensize. It also makes
the program accept menu-shortcuts when a string-gadget is activated
in a requester. (Side-effect : it's possible to use CTRL-Cursor-Keys
to jump to next word in String-Gadgets).
Here's how:
– For Productivity mode the screen-resolution (height and width) must be
set
to the overscan-resolution of Productivity (set in Prefs/Overscan) and
interlace should be on.
– For SuperHires-Interlace mode the screen-resolution (height and width)
must
be set to the overscan-resolution of SuperHires-Interlace (set in
Prefs/Overscan and interlace should be on.
Until the people from ASDG come up with the idea to update their
editor this 2576 byte-program should do. Since this program doesn
free itself from CLI it should be started with `run >nil: <nil:
cedtrick' to start it as a background task. Cedtrick can be
terminated with CTRL-C but it should only be terminated after CedPro
has been quit completely (`Quit and Die') otherise the program will
crash when the next requester pops up. Since Cedtrick patches the
OpenWindow()-Library-Vector I recommend not to quit Cedtrick at all.
Source is not included since the program has some…
Hope this helps.
BTW, where did you find this program?

Quinten, Thank you for the full translation. It was very helpful. I
honestly don't remember where I picked this little ditty up but you
are most welcome to it of you wish to have it. You can call my BBS in
NJ at 201-398-6360 or, if you have access to FidoNet file request
capability, you can FREQ it as: CEDTRICK.LHA Thanks again, – al
