           |?|      You could insert a text file in a     |?|
           |?|    selected area by 'ASCII Editor'. The    |?|
           |?|  program word-wraps automatically at the   |?|
           |?|      end of the selected area without      |?|
           |?|    splitting the words. Additionally you   |?|
           |?|     can center the text in the border.     |?|
           |?|                                            |?|
           |?|  The program has some painting functions   |?|
           |?|      and it's easy to define your own      |?|
           |?|  borders. You can always use this borders  |?|
           |?|   to insert a text (or a ASCII picture).   |?|
           |?|                                            |?|
           |?|  Example: 1.) create a own border or use   |?|
           |?|    the rectangle function. 2.) mark the    |?|
           |?|  empty area in the border. 3.) Press the   |?|
           |?|    'Import Text in Selection' button and   |?|
           |?|             choose a textfile.             |?|
           |?|                                            |?|
           |?|    This text was made with the program.    |?|
           |?|                                            |?|
