Long Description:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WizlINK is a remote control program that allows you to run another
computer through a modem or a direct RS232 cable. It lets you work
on the distant computer as if it were right before your eyes. Unlike
other remote control programs (including those commercial software)
that could take 100K or more of memory, WizLINK with its extremely
small TSR provides a solution to everyone's memory problems and
concerns while still retaining the ultimate power of remote computing.
With the unbelievable and unbeatable 7K of TSR memory, WizLINK offers
remarkable power and functionality, including multi-file transfer,
high speed compressed data transmission (115K direct or 14.4K modem,
before compression), password protection, Back/Wait for call remote
link, auto bauding, DOS shell, remote rebooting, screen saver,
advanced options, and much more... NEW! WizMAIL, WizLINK's personal
electronic mail. Send mails/files without login to remote control.
Easy, fast, private, with protection! The accompanied WizLINK utility
program allows you to access the phone book database, the rich on line
help system, the comprehensive pick lists, and the on line User's
Manual. WizLINK is written in assembler, with both the Remote and
Host built in one, and is best optimized for its power, size, speed
and performance. It is very easy to use with user friendly screens
and help prompts to guide your steps. Either you are a new computer
user or an experienced expert in other commercial remote control
software, you will enjoy using WizlINK. WizLINK is ideal for offsite
technical support/customer service, home computing, and portable
computer applications. <ASP> member.
Product History:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The very first WizLINK product was called WizCOM, completed by the middle
of 1991 with only 3.8K of memory. It was a one file program with limited
features other than Remote Control used for in-house only. WizLINK 1.0
(with about 9K memory) was introduced in the following year to some local
corporate users. WizLINK 1.1 (6.5K) was the first public apperance in the
shareware market by Nov of 1992, with major memory optimization and full
documentation. WizLINK 2.0 and WizLINK+ 2.0 (new commercial version) was
completed by early 1993, followed by an immediate upgrade release (WizMAIL)
dated Feb 14, 1992. Many enhancements, bug fixes were continuous between
above versions. We'v put a lot of time and money into WizLINK and
accomplished the "unbelievable" and "impossible" work, and we feels that
the public has the right and deserve to know and use such great product.
