here's a handy way to include extra commands in your MicroWorlds vocabulary.
For example, if you wanted to add "circle" and "square" to the
vocabulary , using a text editor write the following procedures:
to circle
pd
repeat 360 [fd 1 rt 1]
end
to square
pd
repeat 4 [fd 80 rt 90]
end
Save the document as -tools-.txt Place the file in your MicroWorlds
directory, boot (or reboot) MicroWorlds and you will have "built-in"
commands for circle and square.
Be careful not to use any existing command names for your procedures.
Please note, OS X users won't be able to use TextEdit because it
creates .rtf documents, which will not work.
I also wanted to mention to Kate that the Windows version of both Pro
and EX support MicroSoft Word's spell checker. If you have Word on
your system, click anywhere within the text area and choose Spell...
from the Text menu. The spell checker always reads the text from the
top down. If some text is selected, the spell checking is done only
on the selected text.
