DiskSalv 3 is the first commercial version of DiskSalv. Developed by Dave Haynie and published by Intangible Assets Manufacturing, it is the fourth major revision of DiskSalv, and it offers features never before found in DiskSalv or other Amiga disk utilities. While it would be difficult to list every new feature of DiskSalv 3 in a reasonably short announcement letter, new features include: * A Hot New Look The DiskSalv 2 user interface has been completely reworked. While the best features have been retained, much has been improved. The font sensitivity is better than ever -- why should a utility tell you which font you must use? The overall look is cleaner, with graphical queues throughout that enhance operations without making undue demands on your system's memory or pretending to be a video game. Gadgets and help texts are context sensitive. Device selection throughout is drag-and-drop, though of course enhanced list selection is still available for the asking. Interactive AmigaGuide links are provided for every gadget and menu function, available at the press of the HELP key. * An Ounce of Prevention... A disk can now be checked for troubles without actually making any repairs, for extra confidence. Deleted directories, files, and data can be permanently erased for added security, program releases, etc. Traditional full or incremental backups are supported, in the same style as DiskSalv's recovery functions. * ...And a Pound of Cure You still get traditional DiskSalv functions, only better. Undeletes can often be performed in-place. A fully redesigned filter mechanism supports pattern matching on full pathnames, file notes, dates, file sizes, and/or protection bits. Pattern matches can be used to include a file in a scan, exclude it, or stop a scan on a match. Any number of filter groups may be active at the same time, and such groups may be loaded from disk. * When Time Counts A new intelligent prefetching disk cache, buffered file I/O, and improved internal design makes DiskSalv faster than ever. The scroll bar calculations have been refined for greater accuracy. * There's Nothing to Lose Device description editing and volume searching functions have been greatly enhanced. DiskSalv can freely convert between its internal device format, standard Amiga ASCII format (DOSDrivers files), and Rigid Disk Blocks (the standard autoboot format). * Going by the Book A complete, on-line AmigaGuide manual is included to aid both beginner and advanced user. Details range from the basics through a complete theory of operation. Decriptions of all DiskSalv file formats and associated C Language "include" files are also supplied. Environmental awareness is a DiskSalv tradition. Back in the DiskSalv 1 days, Dave encouraged folks to "register" the shareware by sending money to Greenpeace. After careful consideration of the environmental impact of printed manuals for frequently updated computer software, we have decided to provide only AmigaGuide documentation. We believe that you will appreciate having completely up-to-date documentation with hypertext links and will appreciate our contribution to the health of our Earth. Additionally, the entire DiskSalv package is reusable, so there won't be anything you have to throw away or recycle without getting at least one more use from it. **SPECIAL NOTE: This offer replaces the "semi-commercial manual" for DiskSalv 2 offer made in the DiskSalv V11.27 release. Everyone who ordered the DiskSalv 2 manual will get DiskSalv 3 instead. If you purchased DiskSalv 2 with the expectation of printed documentation and are unhappy with receiving DiskSalv 3 instead, we will cheerfully issue a full refund on receipt of your returned software and a note explaining your disatisfaction. * WHAT A GREAT DEAL!
