I assume you mean sorting the paragraphs using the macros?

I gave it a try and it worked as it was supposed to work.

Have you tested the other macros to ensure that it’s not something wrong with your copy of AppleScript? (or maybe these macros is not even AppleScripts but perl macros instead?)

Have you tried to re-install NWE and the macros?

Hi:

Are you running with a French localization by any chance?

The macros could refer to menus with the names in English. If you got a French localization, the names of the menus are in French…

Peter is correct. The easiest way to fix this is to open the Macro, and convert the names to french. There has been some talk on the French Nisus mailing list about how to do this. You can search their archives for more info.

This is a bug we will correct in a future release.

Julian,
[1] les macros francisées par notre ami Kino sont téléchargeables dans la rubrique "Fichiers" de la la-liste-nisus:

Yes, I went and did the new macro download, but there are still two problems:

1. when i sort I get a message "mauvais menu selectionne dans la macro...la macdro contient une commande de menu inconnue: presse-papier 1" then i press on the "continuer la macro" button and then I get a similar message but "0" instead of "1" ( "mauvais menu selectionne dans la macro...la macdro contient une commande de menu inconnue: presse-papier 1"). Then I press on "continuer la macro" and then the sorting happens. WHY IS THIS?

2. is use this sort for bibliographies--and long ones at that. the italics are taken out or added to every letter when i sort. Can Nisus please fix this??? I am going mad...

thanks,
