** Java "Tools" buttons bring up submenus that will type template code for statements, methods, listeners, adapters, I/O statements, and I/O dialogs. The "HTML tools" button has submenus that type various tags.

*** The "Pick a macro" button alows the user to pick a macro found in MultiEd's template directory.


You can use Tool Setup program (included in the download) to select from these and other supplied tools or you can create your own tools. Some of the other supplied tools include

  • JavaFX compile and run
  • JavaFX run
  • JavaFX script documentation
  • Load Processing file into the Processing IDE so it can be run
  • Load Processing.js file into a browser after creating an html file, if needed
  • Assemble 16 bit MASM program
  • Assemble 32 bit MASM program
  • Load a file into a non default browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape or Firefox)
  • Run the MultiEd Tool Setup program

In some cases it is necessary to customize the tool or a associated .bat file to reflect the location of files on your computer.
