Documentation - AkelPad

This page contains the most recent postings of AkelPad documentation. All documentation done "should" end up on the AkelPad site (see below) eventually.

Note: CHM (compiled html) help files are now zipped to avoid Windows^® security problems which sometimes occur (eg. download file, but unable to view pages). If your system cannot handle zipped files, I recommend using 7-zip, an excellent freeware archive program.

MacTool
Macro compiler/decompiler

Write/edit/compile macros (for the Macros plugin) quickly without having to memorize keystrokes!
MacTool v1.0.0 (initial release)

download as a zip file (includes full CHM documentation)

version 1.0.0 is incomplete - normal decompilation is not yet implemented (other decompilation modes work fine). This feature should be fully implemented in the future.

MacTool is a macro compiler/decompiler for use with the AkelPad Macros plugin. MacTool can compile to a macro file from its own custom programming language; this eliminates having to re-memorize the macro if changes are made. MacTool is a command-line application, but emulates drag-and-drop for most operations. MacTool is written in Virtual Pascal - no longer supported, but a very good compiler for small (?) projects.

Note: This page is NOT the official documentation page. All up-to-date documentation should be posted at:

http://akelpad.sourceforge.net/files/docs/

within a day or two of appearing on this page or being forwarded to Instructor.
