(My stuff runs several pages long sometimes.) >-- James ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ November 29, 1999 In regards to your question above, James... There are several ways to send SignWriting through email. If you want to send an ENTIRE SignWriter document, that is several pages long, then do not make .GIFs...instead send the entire file. To send an entire document, attach the SignWriter file, which ends in .SGN, to an email message. The receiver on the other end can open your file by starting the SignWriter Computer Program and opening it there. That is the only way to send an entire document. Did Wayne teach you how to attach a SignWriter file to an email message? The files are .SGN files. You can also send complete dictionary files. For one dictionary, you need to attach two files: .DIC and .DIN. If you want to write a short email message with a little SignWriting, then make .GIFs. If you make those .GIFs using the Screen Capture method, then you can only do one screen at a time. Screen captures can only capture what is seen at that moment on the screen...That is just as well too...because it is better to attach small .GIFs to email messages anyway, to help people who have older computers or software. So the Screen Captures are "one screen at a time". Why not try to send us a document or a .GIF? Remember Charles Butler sent us a complete .SGN document recently called "Salt and Oranges"? The actual file was called "SALT.SGN". Anyone can download it from the SignWriting List Archives at: SignWriting List Archive https://www.egroups.com/group/sw-l/ We look forward to receiving documents, dictionaries or .GIF files from you!
