Apple has continued to show their dedication to the Macintosh community by almost constantly updating their hardware and software. We have decided to support as many of the emerging (or "enabling") Apple technologies as we can.
AppleEvents
When Mac users first started accessing the Internet, the major Internet-Related software developers sat down and hammered out a standard suit of AppleEvents that would allow related applications to communicate. InternetMemory now makes complete use of these events to "send" addresses to other applications.
If you use a product that doesn't work with InternetMemory (i.e.: no address gets inserted), send us a note with the product's name and the author's email address. We'll try and get them to support the standard in a their next release.
Apple Guide
Apple Guide is an online help system provided by Apple to developers. InternetMemory comes with one guide file: the Tutorials (竚1). Apple Guides can be accessed through the Help menu when InternetMemory is the active application.

The Tutorials also appear elsewhere in this manual.

Balloon Help
Apple's Online Help system has two parts: Apple Guide and Balloon Help. While Apple Guide is designed to guide you through more complex operation, Balloon Help displays cartoon-like bubbles that briefly explain what you are pointing at. For example: If you turn on Balloon Help and point to your hard drive icon, you'll see a balloon that looks like this:

Drag and Drop
You already use Drag and Drop without realizing it! Since the dawn of Macintosh, the Finder has allowed you to drag objects into and out of folders, onto other disks, into the trash, and onto the Desktop.
The Drag and Drop extension (built into System 7.5) takes this one step further by allowing you to drag text around inside windows and often into other applications directly. Address Books can be dragged from the Finder into the File List. Addresses and folders can be dragged around in the Content list to organize them and they can be dragged to different files in the File list. Anything except Address Books can be dumped on the Trash for deletion.
New in InternetMemory 1.5:
You can now drag addresses out of the Content List and into any application that supports Drag and Drop. For example, you can drag an address from InternetMemory's Content list into the Content area of Netscape to access that URL.
