FINISH LINE for Windows
FINISH a LINE with a Single Key!
Automatically Learns the Words and Phrases YOU use
Enhances Word, WordPerfect, Excel, Ami Pro, Visual Basic
and hundreds of other Windows Applications
FINISH LINE(tm) is software that makes using your PC faster and easier by
allowing you to Finish a Line with a single keystroke. FINISH LINE
automatically learns your style and vocabulary as you type, then shows
likely words and phrases in a window. Unlike keyboard macros, it requires
NO set-up commands and no Hot-Keys to remember.
Simply use your computer and favorite Windows application programs as normal.
As you begin typing a word or phrase that FINISH LINE can predict,
FINISH LINE displays the possibilities in a window. You can press a single
key and FINISH LINE will complete the word or phrase for you.
======
To install FINISH LINE for Windows:
- In Window's Program Manager (the main Windows screen) select from
the menu:
File | Run
- Then enter the full drive\directory\name of SETUP.EXE, for example:
A:\SETUP
(If you use Norton's Desktop or HP's New Wave instead of Program Manager,
follow their instructions for RUNning a program).
SETUP will prompt you for the drive and directory to install FINISH LINE
and create the FINISH LINE icon on your desktop, and then run FINISH LINE.
======
FINISH LINE contains an extensive HELP file that explains what FINISH LINE
does and how to use it. The easiest way to access HELP is to first install
FINISH LINE for Windows. Then you can access FINISH LINE's help through
menu selections or by pressing F1.
If you would like to read the help file before installing FINISH LINE
for Windows, enter Window's Help from any application. Then select from
the menu: FILE | OPEN and enter the full drive\directory\name of
FLW.HLP, for example: C:\UTIL\FLW.HLP
======
This version of FINISH LINE works with most Windows programs. However it
does not work with DOS programs (even those executing under Windows).
A DOS version of FINISH LINE is available that works with most DOS programs
in text mode. The DOS version can be run stand-alone or under Windows
(even simultaneously with FINISH LINE for Windows). Both versions use the
same dictionary file format so words and phrases learned by one version CAN
be transferred to the other. You can use the FINISH LINE menu to display or
print an Order Form for both DOS and Windows versions, (including a special
discount if you order both!)
Full-function evaluation versions of FINISH LINE for DOS and FINISH LINE for
Windows are available from many bulletin boards and shareware distributors.
