Dear E-Primers,

I am a new e-prime user, and would like to use e-prime to do self-paced
reading experiments (word-by-word reading of sentences). I have a few
questions:

1. Is there anybody out there who could help me with an example script of a
self-paced reading (either moving or stationary window)?

2. Could I enter the stimulus materials into a ListBlok without having to
copy and paste all of them? Could I, for instance, refer to an excell or
text file and specify the rows and columns (how??) that determine the
stimuli to be read?

3. Is there an easy way to calculate and display the sentence contours and
mask the previously presented word? E.g. in a moving window display, the
display at
time 1 is:	- -- ---
at time 2:	I -- ---
time 3: 	- am ---
time 4: 	- -- Sam.


Thank you so much!!
