3.5.2 Printing files
Printing Files
The Irie Pascal IDE allows you to print files by doing any of the following:
1. Select Print... from the File menu.
2. Press Ctrl+P.
3. Click on the Print File button in the toolbar.
All three of the above methods bring up the same print dialog box that allows you to specify various print
options and then start printing the file you are currently editing. NOTE: If the file you are currently
editing has some selected text then the print dialog box will automatically default to printing only the
selected text. In this case, if you want to print the entire file you will need to choose the appropriate
option (usually you choose an option called All).
3.6.1 Choosing fonts
The Irie Pascal IDE allows you to select your preferred font from amoung the monospace fonts available
through Windows. To select your preferred font choose Preferences... from the Edit menu. This will take
you to the Text Preferences page of the User Preferences dialog box.
The IDE will remember your preferred font and automatically use that font when it displays text. If you
are not the only person using Irie Pascal on a particular computer, then in order for the IDE to remember
your preferred font, you must log on to Windows using your own user id. If you log on to Windows with
someone else's user id or a shared user id then the IDE will use the font choice of the last person to log on
the Windows with that user id.
NOTE: The IDE stores your font preferences in the registry under the following keys:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Irie Tools\Irie Pascal\Settings\font name and
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Irie Tools\Irie Pascal\Settings\font size.
3.7.1 Choosing colors
The Irie Pascal IDE allows you to select the background and text colors used when displaying text in the
editor and message windows. To select colors choose Preferences... from the Edit menu. This will take
you to the Text Preferences page of the User Preferences dialog box.
The IDE will remember your color selections and automatically use those colors whenever it displays
text. If you are not the only person using Irie Pascal on a particular computer, then in order for the IDE to
remember your color selections, you must log on to Windows using your own user id. If you log on to
Windows with someone else's user id or a shared user id then the IDE will use the color selections of the
last person to log on the Windows with that user id.
NOTE: The IDE stores color selections in the registry under the following key:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Irie Tools\Irie Pascal\Settings\colors.
