CH-CH-CH-CHANGES

Sorry, fans! Wolly won't be here next week. This will be the last weekly WOLRS!

WHAT!?!?!

DON'T PANIC!! We've decided to make the WinOnLine Review™ Shareware Edition a monthly magazine like the original WinOnLine Review™, that monster that features articles on commercial software (Did you see the animated and noisy Wolly in WOLR81?). And the new WOLRS will be bigger and better than the weekly (and it will get your whites whiter, brights brighter, and will contain a fresh lemon scent!) You'll see many more Feature Reviews from our great staff writers, new files from the entire month, and a larger Shareware Briefs column.

So, be patient and keep a stiff upper lip. We'll be back with WOLRS Issue #38 on February 15th. See ya' there!

click me

Enjoy the issue!


      SHAREWARE BRIEFS

AUDIO LAB

Wave!!

Audio files are fun to play, but even more fun to play with. Audio Lab allows you to edit WAV or VOC waveforms. Special effects that include echo, reverse, and invert are easily implemented, and the MDI (Multiple Document Interface) lets you open multiple windows for mixing together. Want to watch? Use the real-time spectrum analyzer. Wolly would prefer to have an Undo function available to recover from his experimental nature, but who's to complain? ALAB11C2.ZIP (227K) is freeware, courtesy of author Hamish Hubbard.

CD PLAYER

The Secret O' Life is enjoying the passage of time

Bob's old stereo system has found a home in the computer room to deliver great sound from his audio card. Wolly could never understand all these high-priced fancy computer speaker systems. You can buy an inexpensive receiver and a pair of speakers for the same money! CD Player for Windows is a great way for him to catalog and enjoy Bob's CDs. With this program Wolly can instantly find the selection he wants, repeat it, or choose shuffle-play. There's an oscilloscope view as well as the normal full screen, or CD Player will shrink down to just its control panel. Real quick to learn and easy to use. Registration for CDPLY232.ZIP (91K) varies from $15.00 to $25.00. Wolly notes he cannot actively boogie and also accurately keyboard, and he sure did get told to turn it down a lot during the review.

LABEL WIZARD

Magic?

Here's a pretty nice label program that builds labels using proprietary templates that allow entry within their predetermined "panes." The clean and intuitive interface is easy to learn, populated by a handy toolbar, and makes intelligent use of the right mouse button. Changes are quick and easy, and the results very nice. Label Wizard includes templates for a cassette J-card, mailing and 3x3 diskette labels. A $20.00 registration fee brings additional templates along with a program to create your own. Grab LBLWZ20A.ZIP (226K) and take it for a test drive.

DOS DOOR

Yes, I have been at DOS Door

This simple freeware door awaits your entrance back into the dark and unfriendly world of DOS. A quick click and you're there. Thanks to Mark Alan Pruitt of Studio, Eh? Productions for DOSDOR11.ZIP (22K).

TRUE TYPE FONTS

Better late than never

   AGMINT.ZIP (37K)

FILE FIND

Needles in a Diskstack!

FileFind gives you plenty to choose from and delivers a fine report, complete with criteria, after completing the job. It will search most archive types, including ARC, ARJ, ZIP, ZOO, LBR, LZH, PAK, and PKA, but don't expect speed here. Wolly gave it the three finger salute the first time he ran it and didn't realize it searched archives, thinking it had died in action. WFIND21.ZIP (59K) lets you specify drives, file size ranges, dates, and allows printing or clipboard copying of the results. Registration is $10.00. Wolly finds that just right.

OMNIDAY

Dear Diary:

If you'd like to document your life and daily adventures electronically, take a look at OmniDay. A full line-up of icons makes entry and searches for your bits of wisdom easy. The program will handle up to ten users, who can protect their entries with a passcode and even encrypt their data if they so desire. The Reminisce feature allows easy browsing of daily entries, and an interface to an external spell checker or thesaurus is provided. All in all, ODAYW201.ZIP (382K) is pretty well done and can be registered for $29.95.

MEDIEVAL WAR

War is medieval, isn't it?

Mass your troops! Build a light infantry or galleon piece to capture your opponents' cities! Medieval War is a multi-player game of strategy that takes you through squares representing sea, land, mountains, forests, and cities. If you like this kind of game, MEDWAR10.ZIP (197K) seems like a good example of the genre. Registration is $29.95.

WIN WAGES

Or in this economy, lose wages

Changing jobs? WinWages is a simple calculation program that will spread wages into categories easily understood. Specify the wage range, time period and increment, and WWAGES10.ZIP (66K) breaks it down into digestible pieces. Sure, it's nothing you couldn't do with your spreadsheet program, but it is quick, convenient, and registers for $5 to $8.

TIME AND MONEY TRACKER

Time is money!

Keep records and price your time, by project, with the Time and Money Tracker. Each project can have its own fixed cost and hourly rate. TMT201.ZIP (52K) is simple and straightforward, far too simple for its registration fee of $25.00 personal use or $45.00 business use.

FM MegaWord Review
      MEGAWORD

a review by Ed Hoffman

For those of you who have already purchased the new Word for Windows 6.0 you are well aware of the awesome power of this new program. Microsoft certainly did quite a job crafting this word processor. However, as is so often the case with commercial software programs, someone takes a very good program and makes it much better. In this case the someone is Romke Soldaat and the program is MegaWord 6.0.

 From a comprehensive and well written 70+ page manual to over 30 tools and utilities to significantly enhance the already powerful features of Word for Windows 6.0, the MegaWord program has virtually something for everyone. This is truly a worthy successor to the earlier MegaWord 2 program. The primary problem in writing a review for a program that offers as much as MegaWord , is trying to figure out where to start. So, rather than getting off on the wrong track, we can start with the basic requirements. If you're planning on giving this program a try, in addition to the Word for Windows 6.0 program, you'll need Windows 3.1 or higher, and DOS 6.0/6.2 if you want to access some of the program features.

The first feature I really think is well thought out is the optional install routines. Here you have three choices of how MegaWord is installed. You can have the program load as a permanent global template, a temporary global template, or load individual elements to your normal template. Another VERY nice touch is that MegaWord does not disable the existing functions within Word for Windows 6.0. Each replacement element or tool in MegaWord can be overridden by holding down the SHIFT key when you start the macro. So, with this feature, if you want the original Word for Windows command instead of the MegaWord command, you always have the choice. Just these features alone would win the prestigious Works For Me! award, but there is MUCH more to this program.

Document and Template Tools

The program comes with a variety of tools and macros to replace some of the more cumbersome File commands. These include:

Template Manager. Replaces the File New command and shows templates and wizard names and descriptions.

Document Recall.  Lists the files you've worked on and allows you to both preview and reload them easily.

Project Manager. Group related documents under a Project Name. One mouse click will reload the entire project.

Fast Open. Preview and open documents.

Fast Path. Complete directory management from within Word for Windows. Create, remove, flush and rename directories, or delete entire directory trees.

MultiFile. Complete file management from within Word for Windows. Copy, move, delete, preview, open or print files or groups of files anywhere on your system.

MultiPrint. Complete control for printing, faxing, and setting your printer drivers. Runs Print Manager and the Control Panel as well, all from the same dialog box.

Viewing Tools

The program also has several tools to customize your workspace and to make using Word for Windows 6.0 more sensible. These tools include:

View Manager. Define your favorite workspace view and give each view a unique name. Then recreate whenever you want with a single mouse click.

Window Manager. Close or arrange document windows quickly.

True Name. Puts full path name, document title/description, or file name in the title bar.

Toolbar Picker. A fast and convenient tool for adding or changing toolbar icons. Cut and paste any of the 312 button images with two mouse clicks.

QuickZoomUp, QuickZoomDown and QuickSplit. Hotkey keyboard interface to the Word Zoom commands.

Editing and Formatting Tools

The program has a few tools to make creating and using special characters easier. These tools include:

Special Characters. Pick foreign or non-alphabetical characters from a mini toolbar.

Compose Character. Create special characters quickly and easily.

Table 3D Effects. Adds 3D effects to entire tables or to selected table cells.

Table Toolbar. An all-in-one table formatting toolbar.

Date and Information Tools

The program also has tools to allow you manipulate date, time and numbers. These include:

Date and Time. Inserts any date in more than 30 formats and in over than 20 languages.

Date Calculator. Shows everything you want to know about any date in the past and future.

Calendar. Displays the calendar of any month/year combination, and inserts the calendar in your document in any font and size, and in the language you wish.

Character Analyzer. Scans selected text and tells you exactly whats there.

Word Count. Counts the words in your entire document, page, section, paragraph, sentence, line, table, selected area, and more. Also reports on the readability of your selection.

Insert Number. Insert any number in any format. And this is probably the only Word for Windows calculator that speaks 21 languages!

System Tools

The program also has a collection of tools to replace Program Manager and the Control Panel. Manage your Windows system, from within Word for Windows. These tools include:

Application Manager. Start any Program Manager application. Turns your favorite Program Manager group into a point-and-shoot Button Bar or Launch Menu, with no programming.

Main Applications Toolbar and Control Panel Toolbar. Immediate access to your most-used Windows applications and system settings.

System Monitor. Keeps you continuously up-to-date with your System Resources and gives immediate access to comprehensive system information.

Lock Windows. Blank your screen and optionally password-protect your system.

System Exit. Quit Word for Windows or Windows, or reboot your computer and restart Windows.

Entertainment Tools

For those times when you don't really feel like working, MegaWord even has a bit of fun built-in. These features include:

BioRhythm. Checks your physical, emotional, and intellectual state. And reveals the compatibility between you and your partner.

CD Player. Control your CD-ROM player from a Word for Windows toolbar and enjoy your music CDs while you work.

So, if you have Word for Windows 6.0, the MegaWord program is an addition you should seriously consider adding as well. I'm not sure, but I'll bet you'll see some of these features from Microsoft when they redo Word for Windows again. Members of Windows OnLine can find a full description of the MegaWord program as MWORD6.ZIP or the full MegaWord program as MWORD6.EXE in Directory #500 - (WINDOWS-New Uploads).

Registration fee: $54.00
