Re: Screenplay formatter?

Hello again.

I should have had enough sense to read your post before I responded.  You've already 
answered some of the questions I had.  

Unfortunately I haven't been able to figure out how to write a pScript yet.  I tried the 
examples, but I'm not sure how you actually save it after you write it.

(I might have been trying activation instead of the actual writing.  pEdit and pScript are a 
"little" more complicated than Teikei, so I'm still trying to get it.)    

Thanks again.

(DA). As many other DeskAccesories, it can be launched without leaving the application 
(Memo, pEdit, WordSmith or so). I hope you are familiar with the concept of DA.

one or mor words but *no more than* one line. The name must be written between "¦" and 
"¬". A,B,C.D, at the beginnig of the mark, are needed for the pScript to identified the kind 
of data it handles. All the marks are deleted by the pScript.
