TOP TEN ADVANTAGES TO WOLRS AND WOLR

A recent note to Wolly brought out the fact that there are many advantages to the electronic aspect of the WinOnLine Review™ family of magazines over its printed counterparts. Therefore, Wolly is announcing a free-for-all amongst the readers to contribute their thoughts to the list. Wolly already has a couple items:

- Subscription cards do not pile up in your lap as you read it

- Piles of WOLRS/WOLR do not have to be hauled out to the curb on recycling day

Please call in your submission to Wolly at Windows OnLine (BBS 510-736-8343) and leave a (C)omment to the Sysop, and choose Wolly, or drop your suggestions to Bob Gollihur, Editor, 7 Baywyn Drive, Ocean View, NJ 08230. Your Top Ten Reason and your name may appear in an upcoming WOLRS.

Oh --- the recent note giving Wolly the idea? It was actually one of the disadvantages. This Texas reader, who prefers to remain anonymous, told Wolly his wife gives him very strange looks when he takes his laptop into the bathroom with him.

WELCOME!

Wolly wants to introduce both his new look and a writer new to WOLRS. See Steven Jay Cohen's debut review of Vidvue! Welcome, SJC, and thanks for the complimentary specs!

Enjoy the issue !


      SHAREWARE BRIEFS

HANGMAN JR.

Did he really have to follow in his father's line of work?

This is a very clever and cute learning game for young children that allows you to participate in the teaching experience. BMP images are shown at random with an associated WAV file available from the pushbutton. In the sample file enclosed, the word describing the picture is spoken. Your child may attempt to spell the word by selecting from the alphabet above. There is no negativity here; correct letters are placed in the correct positions in the box below (not shown in the graphic) while incorrect letters slide down the screen into the animated trash can and make an appropriate noise. When the word is correctly completed, an animated reward appears, such as a bungee-jumping elephant!. Hangman Jr. provides a well designed edit function to build a file of images, sounds and words of your own. The creative possibilities are endless: relatives and their voices, animals and the sounds they make, etc. If you have young children Wolly really recommends you take a look at HJMM1.ZIP (338K), a very well engineered shareware program that can be registered for $24.95 and includes additional words, pictures and sounds.

SMILER SHELL

Made me smile <G>

This is very slick! Those of the command line persuasion have got to love Smiler Shell, an extremely handy and well-designed utility. It supports pipes and redirection, and you can run anything: DOS programs and internal commands or Windows programs. Like similar products, there is a command line editor that saves prior commands in a command stack, allowing you to search and retrieve a previously submitted command, change it, and re-submit it. It can even automatically load a previously saved stack of commands for subsequent sessions. Aliases are supported by Smiler Shell, abbreviations of  longer commands and they may be attached to function keys. One of the handiest features is a quick directory-change utility called DC that will send you in the direction of another directory by  partial name and give you choices if there are multiple possibilities. Other features are available to display time, free memory and resources, or you can compact appearance by eliminating the menu entirely. Wolly took to SMISHL13.ZIP (78K) very quickly, and might consider registering this well-conceived utility for $22.45.

TRUE TYPE FONTS

Bonanza!

All the fonts above are packaged by Elfring Soft Fonts and available as ESFTT12.ZIP (359K). Registration is $25.00, which includes an additional 15 fonts returned on disk. Additional informative materials regarding fonts and further font offers are included in the file.

   CINBOB.ZIP (52K)

   TT_FLNGE.ZIP (26K)

   NADATT.ZIP (84K)

The files accompanying each font shown above should be read for registration information.

CHRISTMAS SCREEN SAVER

'Tis the season, soon!

The holidays are nearly upon us, so it's appropriate to show a piece of this freeware screen saver from FunSoft. X_MAS.ZIP (32K) uses Windows's own mechanism and offers speed and block size adjustments. Your screen is saved by its blanking and gradual building of the Christmas image block by block, whereupon it begins again. Not a big deal, but a nice and timely one.

click me

FONT SPEC PRO

Neat but notoriously naggy

We've looked at Font Spec in the past (WOLRS #14) but it deserves another look due to some added functions and general overhaul. The program fits into that broad and ambiguous category known as "Font Managers." The illustration shown is a partial window on its latest feature, the ability to create font groups and install them a the touch of a button. Font Spec Pro continues to offer font printouts and viewing options, but your access to each of the three main functions is now through a small menu bar. Wolly is hard-pressed to suggest that Font Spec Pro is better or worse than Font Monster or other font managers. It does many things and does them well. Suffice it to say, it is different, and may serve your needs. This is where personal preferences and requirements rule. Take a look at FSP510.ZIP (214K) and see what you think. Registration is inevitable if you audition and want to continue to use this program. The nagging doesn't stop, from popping, scrolling, printing, --- AAArgghhh! Leave me alone --- I'll do anything, okay, I promise, I will send you my $25 to stop the pain!!!!

MULTIMEDIA WORKSHOP

They'll throw the book at you!

Another bookware program from Alchemy Mindworks, the Multimedia Workshop generally handles WAV, MID and AVI files. Double click on your selection in the resizable window and hear or see the results. A few handy buttons will easily play, rename, delete, etc., files, and show the wave patterns of WAVs or in-depth MIDI information. A slight bug seems to grey out buttons until a file is played and then stopped midstream, whereupon all functions were back to normal. This minor incident aside, MMWSLT10.ZIP (158K) requires the purchase of an inexpensive novel under $10.00, also available through the software publisher, as registration.

'LECTRIC TOOLBOX

Where do I plug it in?

Icon bars are a popular add on to avoid the clumsiness of Program Manager and gain quick access to most-used programs. 'Lectric Toolbox is a nice example of the genre, and can be the skinny little row at the side of the screen or a giant 18x18 matrix of icons at the ready. Drag and drop is extensively supported by the program, but 'Lectric Toolbox comes in strong on flexibility, too. Multiple toolboxes can be created, and you can minimize the size of your program icons to as little as 20x20 to keep more of your desktop available. LECTBX20.ZIP (143K) goes a bit farther than the run of the mill toolbar, and can be registered for $20.00 if you agree.

VIA PRINT

I don't like to label Ed, but . . .

This is a nice shot at a shareware label program, though it is slightly crippled by the disabling all but three Avery style formats. Full page and custom "labels" are also supported, and most features are available in color, so output could be used for flyers or business cards if desired. Each line of text or graphic are treated as separate objects, making manipulation relatively easy, but multiple lines of text become unwieldy. Fonts can be rotated in "angle" boxes and borders are supported, both nice custom touches. Wolly thought Via Print an ambitious program, and though it could benefit from some further refinement, it is well worth your consideration and probably has the capabilities for most jobs. Registration for GVIAW10.ZIP (299K) is $29.50 and includes a few bonuses from Viable Software Alternatives (see documentation).

WIN EZ

Sure does make life EZer!

Wolly has tried and liked Finder (WOLRS #29) in the past, but along comes Win EZ with even more to like! Two icons (pictured, enlarged) are added to your active application's title bar and can be positioned at right, left, or x pels from the left. Clicking on the first, the Fast Path, brings you a menu of all your program groups, which in turn brings the content of each, to click and immediately execute. Handy? YES! The second icon is an instant task switcher, for an immediate jump or to initiate closure of any other open application. The first icon can also be configured to simply jump to your shell or any other. A convenient Run option is also offered to give you access to a command line, and it has some additional convenient features. Wolly strongly suggests that you give WINEZ31B.ZIP (99K) an audition to see how it can speed your operations; registration is $34.95.

LYRA

Music to my ears!

To borrow a phrase from the help file, Lyra is like a musicians' word processor. You need not have any keyboard skills, only the ability to enter musical notation on a staff using the tools provided. But A MIDI interface or sound card capable of playing such files is a necessity. Eight "voices" are represented by the eight tracks provided by Lyra, and compositions are created by entering notes or rests of varying duration. Instruments can be selected for each part. Wolly played with this for a bit and had some great fun, and no doubt serious music can be created by the patient and proficient. Give LYRA100.ZIP (145K) a look and listen; registration is $20.00.

RANGOON

Not as easy as you'd think!

The solitaire variation is very intriguing and could easily become addictive. The entire deck is spread before you, whereupon the kings are placed at the head of the four lines, leaving four vacancies in the layout. Your job is to rearrange the cards into order by suit following the kings. The only movement is accomplished by filling the vacancies with the card that immediately follows. Hmmm. Strategically challenged need not apply. However, there are options galore, which includes three ranges of cheat mode from minimal to maximal, which might improve your chances. RANGOON.ZIP (99K) is postcardware; the author requests that you send a picture postcard of your hometown to his address in the Netherlands. Wolly will send him his picture right away.

RANDOM BOXES SCREEN SAVER

Organized boredom

Boxes in various shapes, sizes and colors explode on your screen in groups of two, four, six . . . alright, already! I can't stand the suspense --- will it display eight and twelve, too? Yawn. RBOXES.ZIP (43K). Oh, it's $5.00. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

as told to Bob Gollihur


VidVue Review
      VIDVUE

a review by Steven Jay Cohen

Okay... you're working feverishly on your presentation.... pulling out all the stops, at least insofar as the limitations of your software will allow.  You've organized some carefully chosen bitmaps, managed to get hold of that .AVI file with the neat graphical sequence in it, though you haven't quite figured out a way to extract the single frame that's needed here.... (if I could JUST alter those colors slightly and brighten it up a bit...) and you've picked out several .WAV files, one or two of which you want to use (but will they play long enough?  ..or WAIT!!  I wonder if that .MID file would do better here?) And then there's that .GIF file you'd like to use.... (if ONLY it were a little smaller... and facing in the other direction...  How am I going to manage all of these things at once?  Let's see....  I'm going to need about five or six different programs to referee this project... right?) ....NOT necessarily!  Let VIDVUE carry the ball for you.

VID what?  VIDVUE V1.1 is a graphics file viewer, general image utility and Multimedia player.  This shareware gem, written in Visual Basic 3.0, is a virtual Swiss army knife when it comes to Windows graphics.  Though you'll find an easy-to-use interface for your sound (.WAV and .MID) files to be played and timed, the real strength of this program is its outstanding manipulation of graphics.  It has a refreshingly high degree of sophistication, providing many features usually found only in commercial software.  Remarkably easy to use, its simple interface belies the power and versatility of the program, as evidenced by the array of supported formats (listed below).  Graphic operations are conducted from the Control Window and the Viewer Window.

File access is accomplished in the Control Window by way of a familiar directory list box, and you may choose to list either all supported file types, or limit it to the specific file type (extension) you are currently working with.  Highlight the desired file, click on the Load button and you're ready to work.  From here you can manipulate your graphic in a multitude of ways, and view the changes immediately in the Viewer Window.  Have you ever decided to start over again after working with an image, only to discover that you forgot to make a backup of the original?  A nice safety feature is included in VIDVUE to help protect you. If you happen to forget, a dialog box pops-up automatically when you start to work, giving you the opportunity to backup before you make your first change.

Just how sophisticated is VIDVUE?  Check this out.  VIDVUE provides the following functions which may be applied to all supported graphical formats:

Tune Colors - Brightness & Contrast adjustments; and Sharpness, which is enabled only with gray scale and 24-bit images, using anti-aliasing to soften and convolution to sharpen.

Convert to Gray - Converts and enhances 16-color, 256-color, and True-color (24 bit) images for printing on black & white printers.

Convert to 256 colors - Two options to convert True-color images to 256 colors: Optimized Palette - remaps the image to a palette which corresponds to the 256 most frequently used colors.  Though a lengthy process, the resulting 'solid' colors give the best result; Error Diffusion - uses a uniform 256-color palette, and then applies dithering (Stucki algorithm).

Convert to 16 colors - Two options: Bayesian - uses a uniform 16-color palette and applies ordered dithers (Bayer algorithm); Error Diffusion - uses a uniform 16-color palette, and then applies dithering (Stucki algorithm).

Convert to B&W - Three options: Bayesian - applies black & white, ordered dithers; Error Diffusion - dithers to enhance gray shade perception; Halftone - applies black & white, ordered dithers (similar to pattern seen in newspaper pictures).

Flip Image - Vertical & Horizontal.

Rotate - 90º, 180º, or 270º.

Handy resizing buttons are right on the Viewer Window toolbar.  If your graphic happens to be covering the Control Window, a click on the Home button will bring it right to the front. VIDVUE  features full GIF 87a/89a support (and Comment viewing) with a very fast GIF decode to screen routine. Multimedia support includes AVI video, allowing full scalability in a sizeable window.  Notably, an AVI frame grab function is provided to import and save AVI frames to other formats.  VIDVUE is also capable of playing FLI and FLC animation files.  When you've honed your graphic to perfection, and you're ready for production, VIDVUE's printing interface lends a hand by including a simulated document to resize and position your image on paper before printing.  How's that for sophisticated!

Do yourself a favor.  Download VIDVUE 1.1 and give it a thorough workout.  I think you'll agree that it has a definite place in your graphics armementarium.

VIDVUE requires Windows 3.1 running in Enhanced mode and VBRUN300.DLL in order to run.  To fully enable the broad capabilities of VIDVUE, you will want to have installed the following:

* Video for Windows (VFW) runtime for AVI playback.

* MCI drivers for WAV and MIDI playback.  These come with your sound card.  If you don't have a sound card, use Microsoft's SPEAKER.DRV that plays through PC speakers.

* MCI drivers for FLI/FLC playback.  These can be found as part of Autodesk's freely distributed Windows Animator, AAWIN.
