As the former is a lengthy macro I will send it to you separately.
The later is listed below. For it to work without any fuss, I am
assuming your Qedit files together with ShareSpell files are in a
directory C:\QEDIT which is in your Path statement, and the
ShareSpell executive file is called SS.EXE.
The macro is inserted in the configuration file qconfig.dat
exactly as shown*. (First, select the function key you want to
invoke ShareSpell with, in this example, I'm using the Ctrl-F3
function key) Just pick an unused key :
^F3    MacroBegin SaveFile Dos 'C:\QEDIT\SS.EXE ' CurrentFileName
       Return Return EditFile CurrentFileName Return NewFile Return
NOTE: Due to the limitations of the format of this msg, the above
example is on two lines, *but if you are using v2.15, it .must.
be on one line in the Qedit configuration file.
Cheers,
