Appendix 21:  Editor

 

EEGer contains a primitive text editor to allow notes and observations to be recorded during a feedback session (live or replay), client data review, and spectral data review.  A typical screen looks like this:

 

 

 

The client "name" is shown on the top line (subject to HIPAA settings).  The "Header" button pastes in the boilerplate file (specified by editing it from the "Preferences" menu) at the current cursor location.  The "Marker" button pastes in a line of text with the date/time information.  Also on the marker line is the relative session time (for live/replay sessions) or "Review" or "Spectral" to show when the marker was inserted.  The remaining information (those letters/numbers on the marker line) are encoded information as to when the marker was "actually" created so that annotations can be forensically determined.  However, the marker and header data is just text and can be deleted like any other text.

 

The editor is commonly started using F8 from wherever possible.  It can be closed (and data saved) using F8, File->Exit, or clicking on the "x" in the upper right corner.  The data is ALWAYS saved when the editor is closed.  It is not possible to abort saving the data.
