       Written by Yoletir / FaerieFire AKA Dmitry Jemerov, 2:5030/654

                      Release date - 25 Mar 1998

  This FAR plugin allows you to use FAR internal editor for editing
files descriptions. It also helps you create new descriptions for files
by providing settings for default descriptions and description
indentation.

This plugin is freeware and may be used without any restrictions. The
plugin has been tested with FAR 1.50 release and is not guaranteed to
work with other versions of FAR.

The last version of DescEdit can always be requested from the author
(Ronnie BBS, 2:5030/654) by alias DESCEDIT.

In order to install the plugin, you should unpack the archive into the
subdirectory Plugins\DescEdit in the main directory of FAR and restart
FAR. After this, the plugin can be invoked by choosing the command
"Description editor" from the plugins menu of FAR. You can create a
macro for running the plugin more quickly.

In the plugin configuration dialog, which is opened by choosing the item
"Descriptiion editor" from the "Plugins configuration" menu, the
following options can be configured:

  Description file     Allows you to specify the name of description
                       file. You may specify only one filename, and it
                       must not contain a path.

  Default description  Allows you to specify the default for new files
                       descriptions. For BBS SysOps: you may enter here
                       a zero download counter (for example, [000]).

  Description indent   Allows you to specify the indentation for
                       descriptions. If you leave it empty, the
                       filenames and descriptions will be separated by
                       a single space.

  Capitalize filenames If this option is selected, the first letters of
                       filenames for which new descriptions are created
                       will be uppercased.

This is only a beta version of the plugin. It may contain bugs. Please
send bug reports, comments and suggestions to the author (Dmitry
Jemerov, 2:5030/654, yole@eltom.hermitage.ru).
