We interrupt this week's WinOnLine.INI for this important message:

   Press Release

Windows OnLine Offers FREE "World Of Windows" CD-ROM Disc

(Danville, California) -- Windows OnLine (WOL), The premiere Windows oriented computer online service, has announced new memberships including a very special offer for their GOLD members.  For a limited time, new and renewal GOLD members will receive FREE, the PC-SIG, "World of Windows" CD-ROM.  This new product offers many outstanding Windows files and programs. Included are 350 of the best shareware programs, 900 TrueType fonts, 429 ATM fonts, over 2,000 sound files in .WAV, .VOC, .SND, .SOU, .MID format and 10,000+ icons.

The disc provides a font previewer and installer, a sound player and an icon manager.  More than 200 programs can be run simply by clicking on them in File Manager  All programs and articles reviewed in the July/Aug issue of Shareware Magazine are included as well as copies of the WinOnLine Review,  and its sister publication WinOnLine Review,  Shareware Edition - the original electronic magazines that feature reviews and briefs of both commercial and shareware Windows software.  The WinOnLine Review,  praised by the international online community, is published in a Windows Help file format featuring hypertext and color graphics.

Frank Mahaney, founder of Windows OnLine and Publisher of the WinOnLine  Review,  is pleased to offer the CD-ROM to GOLD members.  "I believe that this gives our members a wealth of resources to use immediately."

This CD, combined with a one year membership to the online service, will give users the opportunity to acquire the best and latest in Windows files.

GOLD members may download up to 400 megabytes of the very latest Windows shareware.  This combination of CD-ROM and Online service access is the 1-2 punch that other services lack.  WOL does not charge connect fees, hourly fees, speed surcharges for high speed modems, or any other continuing fees.

Windows OnLine  has been described by PC-SIG as the "World's Best Windows BBS" and may be the world's largest in terms of Public Domain and Shareware Windows files  "We wish to be the one place that Windows users can be sure they will find what they are looking for in PD and shareware Windows software," said Mr. Mahaney.

A WOL GOLD membership costs $109.95 which gives the user access to the BBS for one year, the CD-ROM, and up to 400 megabytes of file downloads.  "Even considering long distance charges, our GOLD membership is a greater value and much less expensive than major online services," said Mr. Mahaney.  "We can furnish our members with 14,400 bps v.32bis data speeds on all our phone lines while the major services offer, at most, 9600 bps."  Also available is a one year "less-active" membership at $69.95.

More information and online membership can be obtained by calling the BBS's main data number, 510-736-8343 (modem).

Enjoy the issue !


Shareware Briefs

CHASTITY

A modern version of a gothic tragedy:

It's every parents' nightmare. You come home and your young daughter is sorrowfully hanging her head. "Mommy and Daddy," she bemoans, "come here and sit down. I have something I have to tell you." Your heart sinks. Something is terribly wrong. "One of the boys in my class came over after school, and he, well I didn't want him to but . . ." Your thoughts go to where you keep the shotgun. ". . . I told him not to touch it, but he did anyway. H-H-He . . . . well, touched the mouse and broke Windows!" Your worst fear has come true!

Author Owen Poteat had the same fear and developed Chastity, a Windows front-end that provides individualized passwords and menus for the little ones to who sometimes recklessly value expediency over knowledge. It's a cute interface, and reasonably easy to use for both the parent setting up the menus and the child using it. A To Do list is available, handy for parent-entry of a "Do your homework first!" message. Chastity will provide an avenue for each precocious user to have up to 36 of their own menu selections, but it doesn't really isolate your beloved computer from danger. There is a handy DOS window feature that is two-pronged. It allows easy DOS commands that will be interpreted and run within Windows or will shell to DOS if needed. It also accepted my CD\ and wildcard DEL command, but let's hope they don't speak DOS. Check out CHASTITY.ZIP (47K) if these features appeal to you; the author welcomes suggestions to further develop the program, which can be registered for $20.00. The only thing left is, how do we get the little monsters (and big monsters at work) to stop using Ctrl-Alt-Del once they find out about it?

JUDY'S TENKEY

More than ten keys

Many Windows calculators have come and gone, but Judy and her ten keys deserves a place on your computer if you require the occasional or regular calculation. This is what Wolly would refer to as a "Real World" application, intelligently constructed for real world use. The calculator is totally configurable to operate the way you work. It is broken into components that can be included or excluded from appearance; the trigonometric component is not shown in the illustration (Wolly doesn't believe in trigonometry). You may show just the entry/result window for total simplicity, or include just the components you need. Those components include a Function Bar for advanced mathematical calculations, Finance Bar for financial analyses, History Tape, Memory Bar, Number Pad, Statistics Bar to calculate statistics of selected tape entries, and finally the Trigonometry Bar. Judy's Ten Key provides intelligent cut and paste for easy use with other Windows applications, and can react to input like a typical ten-key, a scientific calculator, or an adding machine. TENKEYS.ZIP (102K) could be the one calculator that does it all for you while in Windows. Registration for this program is $14.75.

  CLICK HERE!

STOPWATCH

Ready, on your mark, execute!

Wolly's not exactly sure what it is that you'd time to the hundredth of a second on your PC, but Stopwatch will let you. It displays the time as it so swiftly passes, along with buttons to stop and start the timing function. A save button, when pressed, will record the "lap time" in a window that will scroll through all the numbered, saved times maintained during that use of the program. SW103.ZIP (15K) may be registered for $5.00.

TO DO

Too much To Do!

If you're in the market for a very simple "ToDo" list, this is one that is worth checking out. It's just a tad clumsy moving around, but does offer a pop-up calendar to choose dates from, and items can be prioritized using number rankings. Clicking on the item brings your dialog box with some optional details as well, but you can't edit it unless you close the box and then go back and click edit. The size of the reminder box is the advantage; it could be omnipresent on your screen as a constant reminder of upcoming events, and the calendar displays and priority number on dates with tasks so tagged. Printing of tasks is a handy facility to take your tasks on the road, and you may have multiple ToDo files to differentiate personal and business, for example. TODOW104.ZIP (108K) suggests a donation of $25, though the author would like to hear from you even if you don't register. Wolly feels that his wording also suggests he realizes the program is overpriced, and he's willing to talk.

FILE KILLER

Violence! What next, sex??

If you absolutely want to rub out that file, File Killer claims to do it. Nobody will be able to use a recovery program to undelete it after it is obliterated by writing a series of 1's and 0's for EVERY, SINGLE bit position in the file; and doing it 5 times. Wolly found out one thing when testing killer on the 386-25: you'd better only try to kill files in the same subdirectory as File Killer, or it bombs. It GPFed Wolly every time on the 486 machine (Wolly's Test System) and killed his poor little mouse, so Wolly killed Killer. KILLER10.ZIP (65K) is freeware from Organic Software that needs a little more selectivity and some fine tuning.

PRARIE DOG HUNT

Wolly Errata (oops!)

Wolly looked at and really enjoyed this game of shoot 'em up bang-bang, blood splatting, doggies screaming, great fun a couple of issues ago. Unfortunately, he didn't go beyond 16 colors when he played and reported that the little prarie dogs were only a pair of eyes. Wolly was wrong. Author Ian Firth let Wolly know that he was shallow in the color department, and ever since he's enjoyed the incredible detail of the scenery while popping prarie dogs. This 16 color reduction of the glorious 256 color rendition doesn't do it justice, but at least we've set the record straight for WINDOG10.ZIP (243K) and finally seen the scene properly. Now, let's go shoot some dawgs!

TIME TRAX

Footsteps in the sands of time

Time Trax is a freeware electronic appointment calendar that is a quite sophisticated and useful example of the genre. A clean-looking calendar graces your screen, displaying the time and date, prepared to access your daily schedule for today, future or past dates. Entry is quick and easy, with a drop down box to select appointment duration by half-hours. Choose the length of the meeting and those times are eliminated from the schedule list. You can block days as events, such as holidays or vacations, and those will appear in red and show the description at the bottom of the calendar. Superior Software Tools provides TTRAX.ZIP (30K) for your use free of charge but optionally offers to personalize it with a business name, allowing unlimited distribution to your clients for $25.00.

WHIZ NOTES

Do users become Whizzards?

Whiz Notes is more or less a free form topic/notes generator, with features for searches. It describes itself as a super-notepad designed for your "imaginative mind" so you will "see your productivity soar as never before!" Wolly didn't find WhizNotes intuitive nor easy to use, and believes the documentation hype exceeds the program, especially in view of its $54.45 price tag. WHIZNT.ZIP (227K) is also a Help authoring system.

CLIENT BILLER

And nothing much more

If you do a bit of computer work on the side, or another business that requires billing clients, Client Biller is worth auditioning. The four selections shown take you to simple dialog boxes that allow input or maintenance to clients, invoices, selection of reports or choose from some limited options. The client and invoice functions allow you to establish a client list and common job descriptions and make it easy to choose from a those lists. It's seemingly aimed at the consultant market, with no sales tax or shipping-specific features. The invoice is previewed prior to printing, but the format and fonts are constants you cannot change. It will print an envelope, but again in one manner with no options. No payment tracking is offered. CBILL.ZIP (103K) would be worth its $19.99-24.99 registration request if it were more mature and more useful in the real world.

LOAN ANALYZER

Side by side comparisons

With mortgage rates at their lowest in twenty years, many folks are or should be refinancing their homes or buying one. There are many deals out there, and comparing one to another can be confusing to those who thought that points were only found at the tips of sharp objects. Loan Analyzer displays the illustration shown, but three across, and allows input of data from three different deals you may have been offered. The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is calculated and a box placed around the "best" deal. (That may or may not be the best deal. It depends on how long you expect to stay in the property and other factors. Editor) Wolly suggests that if the author thought people had more principles concerning their principal, he wouldn't bring pop his nag screen with the annoying beggar remarks so often. Registration for LOANAN.ZIP is $14.00. BTW, author, you spelled the wrong word right, but . . .

TRUE TYPE FONTS

Hebrew, anyone?

   (Gad Thin)   TGAD.ZIP (23K)

   (Naftali)   TNFTL.ZIP (28K)

Both font files are shareware and contain additional styles.

WINDIAL CORPORATE EDITION

Call 'em all

WinDial has upgraded its directory and dialer with network support, hence, the Corporate Edition. It presents a very readable interface and is highly customizable in both appearance and function. The database and its screen presence can probably be configured for your specific needs. It has some very useful goodies, such as one click sorting of key fields, search functions and column sizing. New features include background searches, import capabilities, custom field names, custom alphabet buttons, clipboard dialing and a database configuration file. Registration for WDCE20.ZIP (466K) is $25.00 for the Corporate Edition, with a sliding scale per machine beyond one.

WavSorter_Review

I must admit there are few computer tasks I enjoy less than formatting disks. Though I thought the format option within DOS was unbearably slow, it wasn't until I began formatting disks with Windows that I truly learned the meaning of SLOW. I'm sure anyone who has ever used the File Manager's format option can understand what I mean. I was on the brink of buying pre-formatted disks when, I tried a few shareware alternatives to the built-in Windows format utility. Well, as usual, I bumbled along checking out a variety of shareware formatting utilities when EUREKA! I stumbled upon another shareware jewel. This program is called by the unlikely name of Mr. Format 1.1

Yes, it was hard for me to take a program called Mr. Format seriously too, but despite the name, the program is a disk formatters dream come true. No excessive bells and whistles, just the bare bones tools you'll need to format disks from inside Windows.

Not only is the Mr. Format 1.1 program simple to setup and use, but it's the fastest formatting utilities I've seen for Windows. Just to keep myself honest, and to see how fast the program actually was, I timed it against both the built-in DOS and Windows formatting utilities. While not very scientific, since I only used my wrist watch, there was a marked difference in the speed of formatting. I used the DOS format as the basis of comparison. This took 1 minute and 35 seconds to format a 1.44 Mb disk. The Windows format took a full 2 minutes and Mr. Format only took 1 minute and 10 seconds.

Although the full format was quite speedy, the Quick Format option is even faster. To quick format a previously formatted disk the program only takes 7 seconds. And, unlike several other programs I tried, once started, you only need to tap the ENTER key when switching disks. This allows you to quick format a pile of disks without ever once hunting for your mouse.

Mr. Format is a simple utility program that only does one thing, it formats disks. But, if all you want to do is format disks, this program is for you. Members of Windows OnLine can find

Mr. Format as MRFORMAT.ZIP in Directory #150 - (Windows-New Uploads).

Mr. Format 1.1   ($10 Registration fee)

Xavsorter Review

DocuPower Pro 2.1 is the latest version of a program that has been in my WinWord directory for quite some time. When the new version was released, I eagerly installed it over top my previous copy of the program. Few programs can be described as indispensable. However, having used this program since the early days of version 1.X, I feel qualified to add this description to DocuPower Pro 2.1.

For those of you unfortunate enough not to have this program on your system, allow me to tell you what this program is and how it can help make your life easier. DocuPower Pro is an add-on for Word For Windows that helps overcome one of the more serious limitations of most computer systems: you and I, the operators.  If you are at all like me, you sometimes forget where you put your files. Of course you only learn you've forgotten where you put this file when you need to include it in some rush job. So, you then frantically search through every directory on your system until you find the missing file. DocuPower Pro may not help you with your writing, but will definitely help you keep track of your files. In fact, with the new features added to the program, DocuPower Pro can now even help you search for your files.

Quite often, many of the projects I work on require several different files.  Before I had DocuPower Pro, I would have to create a separate sub-directory to keep these files together.  More often than not, I also needed some of these files for other jobs, which meant keeping multiple copies of these files on my hard drive. Well, with DocuPower Pro, I don't need to create separate sub-directories, nor are multiple copies of the file required.  I now simply create a DocuPower Pro folder and copy the file to this folder. The unique aspect of this process is that I don't have to move any of the files. I simply leave them where they were created and DocuPower Pro keeps track of them, no matter where they are on my hard drive. This pseudo-directory arrangement that DocuPower Pro prepares, allows you keep everything nice and neat and eliminates the need to create a variety of temporary sub-directoriesjust to keep your files together.

Once installed, the program may be accessed directly through either the File or Tools menu, or by simply selecting the File, Open command. Probably one of the nicest features of the DocuPower Pro program is the control it allows you to have over your documents. Unlike other programs I've seen, DocuPower Pro is not pushy and will not try to take over your system. So, when you select File, Open the program prompts you to either open the file normally, or from the DocuPower Pro folders.

The heart of the DocuPower Pro program is in its folders.  These are the pseudo-directories you create to store the documents.  Not only can you use the folders to keep everything organized, but you can use plain English descriptions to name both the folders and the documents within the folders. The names can be up to 45 characters long. No matter how you have your DOS directory structure organized (or disorganized, if you're like me). DocuPower Pro keeps all your files close at hand and immediately accessible. You can create an unlimited number of folders and each folder will hold any number of document descriptions, all displayed in alphabetical order.

The program also has integrated File Find and Text Search utilities to rapidly find the file you need by either its name or by its contents. This integrated file management function allows you to make directories, copy, rename, delete or move files. The file management window is also  easy and intuitive to use. You'll be able to do virtually file management task without leaving WinWord or DocuPower Pro.  You can even print documents or FAX documents directly from a folder.  Even document assembly is a snap with DocuPower Pro. Her you can merge documents by inserting the contents of one document into another. While I've used the older versions of the DocuPower program for quite a while, even I was impressed with the features of this new edition.

Unfortunately, space does not permit me to completely describe every feature of  the program. But, you can download the program and see for yourself what DocuPower Pro 2.1 can do. One word of caution, however, make sure you have your seat belt fastened before taking this program for a test ride.  Or, it might just blow your socks off. Members of Windows OnLine can find DocuPower Pro as DP21.ZIP in Directory #150 - (Windows-New Uploads).
