~DmDomD Software Product Description PRODUCT NAME: WPS-8/81, WPS-8/82, Version 3.4 DESCRIPTION: WPS-8/81 and WPS-8/82 are text processing software systems for office and business use that are packaged with all RX-based 80 and 200 series word processing systems. WPS-8/81 supports one terminal and WPS8/82 supports two terminals. A menu driven editor creates and updates documents stored on floppy diskettes. Up to 200 documents of various lengths, or up to a total of 125 pages (at approximately 2000 characters per page) can be stored on a single floppy diskette. Editing capabilities make it possible to easily correct text without completely retyping a new draft. Documents can be queued to a letter quality or draft printer. Printing and editing can be done simultaneously. WPS-8/81 and WPS-8/82 enable the user to • Prepare and edit reports that can require several drafts before final printing • Create contracts and other documents from a library of stored text. • Generate customized letters using a stored form document, and automatically selecting variable text from a list of items, such as names and addresses Features • Responsive menu-driven operation • Easy-to-Iearn commands • Special editi ng keypad • Two- or four-floppy system configurations supported • Software that selects single density mode on either RX01 or RX02 floppy drive-based systems • Full editing features including: Cut and paste of blocks of text Operations by grammatical entity (character, word, tab position, sentence, paragraph, page, line) Boilerplate insert from library files Shorthand expressions Swap transposed character key Delete and rubout by character and word, rubout by sentence and line June 1980 SPD 5.89.2 • Full control of tabs, margins, justification, and pagination including: Automatic centering of text on a line Discretionary pagination control Decimal and right-adjusted tabs Semi-automatic hyphenation • Greater than 400 words per minute letter quality printed output • Higher speed draft printer support • Selectable pitch and type fonts • Underlined and overstruck (bold) printout • Multicolumn printing • Superscript and subscript • Mailing list utilities • Form letter merge • Time and date stamp • Document statistics • Single sheet or continuous forms printing • User-definable keys for predetermined, repetitive operations Communications Using the WPS-8/81 and/or WPS-8/82 communications options, documents can be transmitted between the 81 or 82 systems and a local or remote computer system, orto another word processing system running WPS-8 (Version 3.0 or later). Transmission is asynchronous, serial, RS232-C compatible. One of three communications lines can be used with hardware selectable speeds up to 9600 baud. Features • OX Document Transmission Mode The OX feature allows all special format control information (underlining, bolding, ruler settings, print settings, etc.) to be sent with the document. The document received at the remote system contains all information found in the original. OX uses a special error detecting protocol to ensure accurate document transmission. AE-H586C-TA SPD 5.89.2 WPS-8/81, WPS-8/82, Version 3.4 -2Using DX, documents created under WPS-B can be sent to • Another DIGITAL word processing system running WPS-B, Version 3.0 or later • An unattended DIGITAL word processing system (using corresponding WPS-B communications option AX). • Any of several DIGITAL operating systems that have the corresponding DX layered application product. Files can be prepared, edited, printed and verified off-line on the word processor and then sent to the host for processing. • AX Automatic Transmission Mode Used in conjunction with DX, the AX feature provides the same document transmission capabilities as the DX feature, and in addition allows for one of the WPS-B systems in the communication link to be placed in the automatic mode. This makes it possible for only one person to operate the communication link between the two systems. • CX Character Transmission Mode The CX feature allows character transmission in a serial ASCII asynchronous mode. Special word processing control characters are not transmittted. CX provides for transmission of documents to another computer system in an interactive manner and to a number of other devices that transmit and receive ASCII characters. Features with the CX package include: • Flexible control of communications characteristics for: Embedded control characters Optional use of XON/XOFF protocol Answerback support TWX em ulation • Flexible control of keyboard, printer and storage: Input from keyboard, document, or remote host Output to screen, printer, document, or remote host Multiple combinations possible MINIMUM HARDWARE REQUIRED: • WSB1 8-EA, -FA, or WDB1 8-EA, -EK, -FA, -FK • WSB28-EA, -FA, or WDB28-EA, -EK, -FA, -FK • WS211-EA, -FA, or WD211-EA, -EK, -FA, -FK, and one VT100-WA • WS211-EA, -FA, WD211-EA, -EK, -FA, or -FK, and one WP212-EA two VT100-WAs OPTIONAL HARDWARE: For WS81, WD81, WS82, or WD82 Systems • One LQPB-EA letter quality printer, or one LAB-PA draft printer, and/or • One LA 1BO-EA serial draft printer • One WXB1 add-on communications/OCR interface to WSB1 or WDB1 • One WXB2 add-on communications/OCR interface to WSB2 or WDB2 • One RX2B-8A additional RX02 dual floppy drive for WSB18-EA, -FA, WDB1 8-EA, -EK, -FA, or -FK • One RXB-8A additional RX01 dual floppy drive for WSB1A-AA, -CA, WDB1A-AA, -AK, -CA, -CK, WSB1 8-AA, -CA, WDB1 8-AA, -AK, -CA, -CK (hardware no longer available). • One WPB28-EA upgrade package to WSB18-EA, WDB18-EA, or -EK, or one WPB28-FA upgrade to WSB18-FA, WDB18-FA, or -FK.
