Reminder V1.1 Rel 073 08/Apr/96

Conceived and written by Matro, Rome (Italy)

Thanks to all Reminder supporters! Time has come, the modifies since the
first public release (064, about February 1996) are enough, so the upgrade
of the minor version number was required! :) To all who asked me an italian
language version: I'm thinking about it, but I wish to have a good return
from the world first; thanks!

Upgrades can be found here:

   ... and now Reminder is available from SimTel and WinSite also!! 8-D

This program is SHAREWARE; registration requires L.30000; more informations
in the help file. There's NO timing on the shareware version,
just some limitation.

Reminder requires Windows 3.x or Win95 and has a Win95 design style!
VBRUN300.DLL is required, along with at least 1Mb of free hard disk space.

Reminder has ALL the files needed to run, except for VBRUN300.DLL; to
uninstall it, just delete its folder. It's up to you to move or delete the
required libraries and custom controls from Reminder folder.

Now, an introduction follows; jump it and go down if you're an italian:
there's an italian version also! :)



INTRODUCTION ----------------------

Reminder serves to all the forgetful poeple like me: how much little sheets
of paper do you have scattered near to the computer? Especially who travels
among BBS and InterNet has notes often (even written on a Post-It) with
messages of the type" 3456789 BBS- CDROM [utility]" or
"[ftp.microsoft.com]/pub [files] for Win"! That's it, Reminder serves for
write on the flight these notes, and then look at them with calm and
perform, that is go really to visit that site, that BBS, etc.
Reminder has obviously more capabilities, seen that you don't write on a
sheet but on a PC, you then could divide the notes for categories, insert
who has suggested the pin, allot the thing a level of precedence and you
in phase of reading could order them in base to the date/ hour of writing,
to the precedence, or select them in base to this last one or to the type
of service: I want all the notes about pressing FTP  (precedence 2, where
it go from 1- very pressing- to 4- do it if you want! -) .The pins are
denominated actions that, once bends, they will go in the storyboard
through the Delete button, that in the actual view function as a basket.
Look that in the storyboard view the key instead blanks all the selected
action! The more important addresses can instead be saved in the Addresses
book on a hierarchical structure: you can decide the organization of the
addresses like you want. I have chosen to put the type of InterNet service
in the Services (FTP, WEB, etc.) and the category of interest (InterNet,
Sport, Music, etc.) as the head of each branch of the structure.

Once connected to InterNet, you will do create Reminder a HTML page, and
load it from a Web browser, containing all the actions inserted, ready
to be elaborated by a simple click! With the function` Synchronize' you'll
be able to manage your actions on two different PCs (for example at home
and at work), and maintain your locked and coherent data always on
both the PCs.

Specific informations could be found in the help file; read the WHATS.NEW
file for informations on the last program modifications; you can report
me contingent hints or bugs through an email to [e-mail],
and contingent adjournments could be withdrawed directly from the web
page http://www.stm.it/ F.Martire/reminder.htm.



INTRODUZIONE ----------------------

Reminder serve a tutti gli smemorati come me: quanti foglietti di carta
avete sparsi vicino al computer? Specie chi viaggia tra BBS e InterNet,
ha spesso appunti (magari scritti su un Post-It) con messaggi del tipo
"3456789 BBS - utility CDROM" oppure "ftp.microsoft.com /pub files per
Win!"... ecco, Reminder serve per scrivere al volo questi appunti, per poi
rivederseli con calma ed eseguirli, cioΦ andare effettivamente a visitare
quel sito, quella BBS, ecc. Reminder ha ovviamente qualche possibilita'
in piu', visto che dopotutto non scrivete su un foglietto ma su un PC,
quindi potete dividere gli appunti per categorie, inserire chi vi ha
suggerito l'appunto, assegnare alla cosa un livello di priorita' ed in
fase di lettura potete ordinarli in base alla data/ora di scrittura,
alla priorita', o selezionarli in base a quest'ultima o al tipo di
servizio: voglio tutti gli appunti riguardanti FTP urgenti (priorita' 2,
dove essa va' da 1 - molto urgente - a 4 - fallo se ti va' - ).Gli appunti
vengono denominati azioni che, una volta svolte, andranno a finire nello
storyboard tramite l'apposito Delete, che quindi nell'actual view funge da
cestino. Occhio che nello storyboard view il tasto invece cancella del
tutto l'azione selezionata! Gli indirizzi piu' importanti potete invece
salvarli nel book (addresses view) che ha una struttura gerarchica: potete
decidere l'impostazione degli indirizzi come volete... io ho scelto di
mettere nei Services il tipo di servizio InterNet (FTP, WEB, ecc.)
e a capo di ogni ramo della struttura la categoria di interesse
(InterNet, Sport, Musica, ecc.).

Una volta collegati ad InterNet, potrete far creare a Reminder una
pagina HTML, da caricare tramite un Web browser, contenente tutte le
azioni da voi inserite, pronte per essere elaborate con un semplice click!
Con la funzione 'Synchronize' potrete invece gestire le vostre azioni
su due PC differenti (ad esempio a casa e a lavoro), e mantenere sempre
i vostri dati sincronizzati e coerenti su entrambe le postazioni.

Informazioni specifiche le potete trovare nel file di help; leggete il
file WHATS.NEW per informazioni sulle ultime modifiche apportate al
programma; eventuali suggerimenti o bug potrete comunicarmeli tramite
email all'indirizzo [e-mail], ed eventuali aggiornamenti
potete prelevarli direttamente dalla pagina web
