TSE Pro 2.50e starts on @Macarlo's Warp 4.0 WPS. Note that the VDM has been started but the CPU usage is only 4% (in Object Desktop Professional Control Center)

Working on OS/2 with TSE Pro 2.50e

By @Macarlo, Team OS/2 registered

  1. @Macarlo, registered user of 212 OS/2 programs just registered also The SemWare Editor Professional for DOS (TSE Pro 2.50, version e) for work on Warp with HTML code and other codes, as C++. To jump SemWare click the logo TSE.

Syntax highlightning in HTML code depuration>###

During two years I used Home Page Publisher to work with HTML on OS/2 Warp 3.0 and 4.0. This WYSIWYG HTML editor by Jean-Bernard Clarin (JBC) was recommended to me by Elton Hartmann Marks, from EHNet Inc., Internet Services. I registered it on BMT Micro, Inc. because I works only with registered soft. HPP, actually in version 2.1 level B is a very good tool, but is very slow and runs only on OS/2 platform. Elton and other users was emailed JBC about this fact (slow, reading 100K to 100K) but have not any reply. In my everyday works on the Net I update dozens of HTML pages. The main-page of my web site is updated five times at day. I have not time to expend with hobbies and because this fact I need WYSIWYG to update pages.

The problem is WYSIWYG editor maculates the code and the dirty page don't runs fine! To solve this problem I used Boxer for OS/2 from David Hammel to depurate the HPP source. I'm registered user of Boxer and also of MED from Mathias (very fine editor PM!) but I'm seeking the state of the art in code manual depuration with macros and I see this state just when I decided return to my old Windows NT. I'm registered user of the number one editor for programmer's, the SemWare TSE32 Pro, actually in version 2.80b, and I'joinned his mailing list. I was working just fine with TSE32 Pro on NT4 SP4 when a jackass fucked me with a virus. This guy sent me a pirated software and saids "Hello, uncle @Macarlo, can you test this soft for me?". I inserted the soft on my machine and immediatlly my entire IDE was damned by the virus! Because this problem I was forced to reinstall NT, a bundle of apps and SP4, Internet Explorer 5 etc. Fortunatelly I saved my works with Norton Anti Virus 2.0 actualized (using Drive Copy from PowerQuest I copied the reinstalled NT4 SP4 to other HDD as a backup and now I have not more problems!!!).

The problem is I'm scared with NT and I decide return quickly to OS/2 where virus can't attack. Actually I'm using StarOffice on all platforms (yeahhh, man, I've just the same editor WYSIWYG on Warp, on Linux, on Solaris and on Windows95, Windows98 and Windows NT). The StarEdit, edition mode of the StarBrowser. StarEdit, have a HTML source edit option but his HTML editor is no good. It have a rudimentar syntax highlightning and to depure the code the syntax highlightning must be enhanced, must be really fine, or you can't locates quickly the dirty source. Boxer don't access directly the OS/2 clipboard, only using macros that starts CCA from Don Hawkinson, the master of OS/2 clipboard solutions. The SemWare Junior, called QEdit access the OS/2 clipboard using an .exe but have not syntax highlightning. I tested several editors to perform the depuration of the code: Emacs, FTE, FED, EPM, RimStar and several others.

Any editor I tested was solved my problem (well, the OS/2 problems: 1) complicated clipboard; 2)bugged WPS; and 3)the famous 512 limit). Last week, talking with Kyle Watkins, from SemWare, I related my problems and Kyle was recommended me the TSE Pro 2.50, an programmer's editor for DOS that runs fine on OS/2, in text mode and also im simulated PM mode (seamless). I retrieved the demo and tested it. The problem I noted is the TSE Pro 2.50 can't see longnames and can't access directly the OS/2 clipboard. But I solved this problems using macros and working on a created subdirectory in TSE tree called HTMLWORK, where I rename the extensions .html to .HTM very quickly using my FileStar/2 file manager from GammaTech to depurate the code. After the depuration I revert the file to his original longname and extension.

With TSE Pro 2.50 my problem with depuration on OS/2 is really solved. TSE Pro 2.5 is improved as TSE32 Pro (has the same concept and the same structure). I just embedded it with Opera browser 3.60 beta 3 and I'm working fine here as I work fine with TSE32 Pro on Windows NT. I developed several tips and tricks to run really fine TSE Pro 2.50 on OS/2 and created an icon for it to call it by mouse click. TSE Pro 2.50 have dozens macros, including one TSEFile that starts a build-in file manager as Norton Commander, that have the hability to copy entire trees from one HDD to other!

Well, I solved my problem with TSE Pro 2.50. If you have the same problem, follow me! Teste this SemWare and see by yourself!
