-
- This package provides a modular HyperText System based on the datatypes concept
- of the AmigaOS 3.x . It offers many features, which aren't implemented in any
- currently available datatypes. Currently there are the following datatypes
- available in HTDS:
-
- - hypertext.datatype :
- super-class for all HyperText/Text related formats
-
- - hyperguide.datatype :
- AmigaGuide compatible sub-class, which implements most of known AmigaGuide V40
- commands and attributes.
-
- - html.datatype :
- The WWW document standard can nowbe viewed with MultiView.
-
- - directory.datatype :
- Allows you to browse through the FileSystem
-
- - man.datatype :
- Used to manage Unix-Manual-Pages in ASCII format (output of groff). Now you can
- use man-pages with HyperText links !
-
- - htdsascii.datatype
- display normal ANSI texts
-
- - productinfo.datatype
- display the Product-Info files
-
- In the SDK archive :
-
- - catalog.datatype
- Sample implementation for IFF files.
-
- - htdemo.datatype
- Example sub-class DataType with full source code
-
- - dirdemo.datatype
- Subclass of directory.datatype
-
- Some other DataTypes should come (soon?) :
-
- - mail.datatype
- Provide a HyperText link for each mail in a Mail-Folder
-
- - autodoc.datatype
- Browse through autodoc files without converting them
-
- - xxx.datatype
- If you have any ideas, let me know.
-
- Main features are :
- ===================
-
- * embedding of other datatypes objects, which supports DTM_DRAW method
- * definition of links
- * multiple fonts
- * asyncron rendering
- * starting program's, ARexx macros from a link
- * Retrace/Forward buttons
- * ARexx port with commands to manipulate the hypertext object
- * well defined HyperText Programming Interface (HTPI)
- * supports lists like HTML : <OL>,<UL> and <DL>
- * supports normal and pattern searching
- * rexx scripts for internet access from a hypertext document (ftp,aminet,www,mail)
- * node indexing for very fast opening of hyperguide documents
- * rexx script for source viewing
- * background colors and pictures
- * HTML color expression handling (#RRGGBB)
- * navigator button row configuration
- * export class system. HTML/AscII export.
-
- ToDo list :
-
- * removing bugs
- * optimization of the hypertext.datatype (speed, memory usage)
- * more ARexx commands
- * documentation ....
- * and more ...

- Changes to last release :
-
- HyperText-DataType-System 40.10 (5.4.97) :
-
- - hypertext.datatype
- - changed link lockup. Now the directory of the document is searched
- before the current directory. This fixed a strange behaviour with
- directory.datatype. If you clicked on a file or directory where
- in the current directory exists a entry with same name, this entry
- was opened. This is now fixed.
- - directory.datatype
- - added root entry support for my new root: handler
