This is the first version of eFTE/2. It is based on eFTE (see README.efte) 
which in turn is based on FTE (Folding Text Editor). The configuration now 
compiles on the fly. You should be able to use it with the configuration 
files of an existing FTE install simply by creating a mymain.fte file in 
the same directory as your old main.fte. The file must include the line 
#include 'main.fte'. You could also use the mymain.fte and sysmain.fte 
files from the package. Simply copy them to the directory main.fte is in. 
You will need to edit mymain to set the UI and color scheme as it will 
override the settings in main.fte. Another alternative is to rename your 
main.fte mymain.fte or use -Cmain.fte on the command line. If eFTE/2 
can't find your configuration SET EFTEDIR in config.sys to point to the 
directory your main.fte is in. If you want to install it directly
over an FTE/eFTE install and not lose your custom configuration changes 
you can achieve that by installing only packages 1 and 3 to your current 
install directory.

I have structured the configuration files to make it easier to translate 
the menus. I lack the language skills to do the translations. If you have 
an opportunity to do one or more of the translations please send them to 
me at ygk@qwest.net. The menu files are located in the menu_xx (where xx is 
the language code) subdirectories of the config directory. 
You may add any language with a 2 letter code. Simple create a menu_xx 
subdirectory using the code and place the menus in it. To test them copy the 
direcctory menu_xx to the config directory of an eFTE/2 installand start 
eFTE/2 with -Lxx (xx = language code) on the command line.  The edefault.fte 
also could be translated. If you are interested in translating the documentation 
(help file etc) please contact me.

Known Issues:

1. Occasionally, eFTE/2 will trap when starting an external program. The problem 
appears to be an estyler issue.
2. Opening some help files with certain keywords will trap newview. This is an issue 
either with newview or with the help file as it occurs when newview searches the 
same term. (e.g. open the Open Watcom 2.0 C Library Reference and search for return).
