i found this in my digital archives

for days I was trying to figure out what was the name of the software that created these
with no luck

then i stumbled on a txt file that listed my sw library back then
and one name rang a bell

then i found some scereenshots and this forum so i think that was the sw

anyways... of course i don't have the setup file (or do I, I should need to browse my floppys, if i find them)

how do I open this??? 
i know some of these are text files with the data and such. but the data are no interest to me, I want to see it how I remember it, all colored and stuff

I see that there's this Quercus sw which is inspired by Idealist but does it open these files

Hi Nikolay

 

You don’t need the install floppies.

UnRAR this file into c:\Idealist or similar - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S4mU10kug68_Pw2LH4jrOBIqMp2O4wIm/view?usp=sharing

 

Double-click on your .tex file and associate it with IWIN.EXE in c:\idealist.

 

All the best - Martin
