QuicKeys 4.0 for Macintosh Public Preview Version Now Available New
upgrade adds OS 8.5 compatibility, improved interface, 50 new
features and performance boost for leading Macintosh automation
software

West Des Moines, Iowa, March 3, 1999-CE Software, Inc. today
announced that a free "preview" version of the new QuicKeys 4.0 is
now available for download and evaluation from its Web site. The
latest upgrade to CE Software's popular automation software, QuicKeys
4.0 features compatibility with Mac OS 8.5, more than 50 new
automation capabilities, an updated interface, completely revised
documentation and several other improvements. QuicKeys 4.0 is
scheduled to ship in the next 60 days.

"As a long-time QuicKeys addict, I'm looking forward to this next
revision," said Sharon Steuer, QuicKeys expert and author of The
Illustrator WOW! Book. "Whenever 'Actions' don't work in PhotoShop or
Illustrator, I turn to QuicKeys. There are so many repetitive tasks
that only it can do, and version 4.0's easier shortcut creation makes
QuicKeys even more indispensable!"

Long the industry-leading productivity tool for the Macintosh,
QuicKeys' new version 4.0 features the following improvements: --
Compatibility with Mac OS 8.5. -- Ten new QuicKeys plug-ins that
prime QuicKeys for use with the Web, Internet E-mail and the Mac
desktop. -- New Setup Assistants for easier shortcut creation.
-- Completely updated, non-modal Editor interface with type-to support.
-- New contextual menus for creating shortcuts.
-- Improved toolbars with drag-and-drop functionality for launching
programs and documents.
-- Full integration with Mac OS 8.5's Appearance Manager themes.
-- Enhanced reliability and performance.
-- All-new printed manual and continued free telephone technical support.
-- Plus many additional improvements.

Fred Terry, QuicKeys expert and author of The Automatic Mac, said: "A
new version of QuicKeys that makes it even easier to send E-mail,
reformat text from messages, and retrieve Web pages and files will be
welcome given the release of the Internet-centric iMac and System
8.5. I can't wait for version 4.0."
