What were you trying to do?
Run ez from one of the "new" RTs in w20-575. This happened on
w20-575-109, w20-575-121, and at least one other RT in that area; it
also happened with eos.
I try two things: ez foo, and ez foo.ez.
What's wrong:
First, with both I get:
Starting ez (Version 7.0, ATK ATK-No-Version-Number); please wait...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Note the "ATK-No-Version-Number". Now, with BOTH editing foo and foo.ez,
the only menu cards I get are: "File", "Page", "Search/Spell", and the
one that has the "paste, save, switch file, plainer, delete window,
quit" options. Neither has anything about Enabling Basic Styles, and
basic styles are obviously not around: if I highlight some text, nothing
new (except Cut and Paste options) comes up.
What should have happened:
Basic styles should be enabled for editing foo.ez, and the option to
enable them should be there for editing foo. The fact that when you
start it up it says "ATK-No-Version-Number" is not encouraging ...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
ahelp. See discuss transaction oez[527], the user with that ez question
was the one that originally noticed the problem.
