The [UP ARROW] key works             in a similar manner except that it will display             the previous page of the document.  The [LEFT               ARROW] key will change the program to Chap Mode.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           @·D                                                            06           Overview                                                                                                                        Overview is one of the unique features of the               READER. This option displays a histogram depicting          the relative sizes of the chapters in the document          using bar graphs. If not all chapters of a document         fit in the display area, then one can use the               [RIGHT ARROW] key to scroll the bar graphs for              earlier chapters to the left to make room for the           bar graphs representing later chapters in the               document. The [LEFT ARROW] key will scroll the              chapter bar graphs to the right. The [PGUP],                [PGDN], [HOME], and [END] keys can also be used to          display the bar graphs for different segments of            the documents.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             @·D                                                            06                                                                               In addition, the histogram pictures the position            of the active page in the document; the positions           of all book marks in the chapters whose bar graphs          are visible; and the position of all retrace                marks, if any.  Clicking on any such marks will             display the related document position.  In fact,            clicking the mouse on any portion of the graph              will display the corresponding page in the                  document.                                                                                                               Mouse clicks on the line below the display area             will also display/hide the overview graph and               the active page alternately.                                                                                            ┌                                             ┐             │  Also see the  [F10]  and  [O]  Speed Keys  │             └                                             ┘                        @·D                                                            06                                    COMMENTS                                                                                       The COMMENTS menu option allows the reader to select any    of up to ten comment screens, if any, to be the active      comment screen.

It is a good practice to delete the PAGE.TXT                file once its contents are no longer needed.                                                                            ┌                                            ┐              │  Also see the  [F7]  and  [D]  Speed Keys  │              └                                            ┘                         @·D                                                            06                                  INFORMATION                                                                                         This menu option will appear only if the program            detects the presence of files with the .UXT extension       in the current directory.                                                                                               Such files contain GENERAL information such as              addresses, quick help, errata, or product ordering          instructions.                                                                                                           Up to twenty information screens (.UXT files) may           be included in each directory.

Examples of operations which call for a single left         click include changing chapter or page, selecting a         menu option, and selecting a book mark or a retrace         mark to go to.                                                                                                          All mouse actions when the cursor is within the text        display area (the active page) require a double left        click.  The first click changes the mouse cursor            mode, and the second click performs the operation.                                                                                    @·D                                                            08                                                                            Examples of operations calling for a double click           include searching for a word and displaying a               figure or a picture.                                                                                                    A left click normally generates results equivalent          to pressing the [ENTER] key.

While the cursor is on the active page display area,        a right click will move the marker bar will highlight       the row where the cursor is located.                                                                                    When there is an active page on display, a right            click anywhere in the Chap scroll window will advance       one chapter; i.e., the first page of the following          chapter will become the active page.  A right click         anywhere in the Page scroll window will advance one         page.                                                                     @·D                                                            08                                                                            A right or left click on the Chap or Page labels on         top of the scroll windows, will advance one chapter         or page respectively.                                                                                                   A left click on the active page display area                activates text selection mode -- the cursor will            change to signify the mode change.  The [ESC] key or        a right click on the mouse will revert the system to        normal mode.  A second click on any word will begin a       search process for that word.  The search will begin        from the beginning of the document and is limited to        the active document.  The [ESC] key or a right click        on the mouse will abort the search process.  ???                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          @·D                                                            08                                                                            Clicking on the row on top of the text display area         -- the book and chapter name -- will display the            table of contents.  A double left-click on any row in       the table of contents which corresponds to a numbered       chapter, will display page one of that chapter.                                                                         A left click on the R-# located at the bottom right         corner of the screen, if there are retrace marks,           will display the list of retrace marks.                                                                                 A left click on the word "Set" in the book mark input       prompt will cause an automatic assignment of a              temporary book mark by the READER. A second left            click on the word "Set" will assign the system              assigned mark to that position in the document and          exit the book mark input prompt.                                                                                                      @·D                                                            08                A left or right click on the line below the active          page display area will cause a toggle action between        the active page and the overview graph.                                                                                 While the overview graph is on display, a left click        on the line above the display area --  book and             chapter name -- will display the list of book marks.

For proper              outcome the host computer must have a super VGA             monitor and compatible video card.                                                                                                    @·D                                                            08                A double left click on [????] or [????] will              transfer to a position in the active or another             document in the current directory identified by that        hyper mark.  The "????" represents a hyper mark             composed of digits and symbols. The [J] key prompts         an input line for the user to specify a hyper mark.                                                                     On the overview screen, each vertical column                represents a chapter in the document. A small solid         box with a "hole" on the histogram represents the           active position in the document.  Clicking on this          box will return you to the active page.  Clicking           anywhere on the chart will display the page                 corresponding to the position in the document               identified by that spot on the chart.  Solid blocks         without "hole" represent book marks.  Clicking on any       of them will display the corresponding marked page.                                                                                   @·D                                                            08                                                                            The symbol "" denotes retrace marks.                       Clicking on any of them will display the page               identified by the retrace mark.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   @·D                                                            09                               Book Reader System                                                (BRS)                                                                                         The Book Reader System (BRS) has been developed to          primarily process and maintain mass quantities of textual   data. Although it has a practical capability of handling    graphic images, its focus lies with textual information.                                                                                                                            BRS has many useful features, but several of its            unique properties set it apart from any other text          handling and document management software program           available in the market. Following are some of BRS'         unique features:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               @·D                                                            09                                                                                          1.

With the present        commonly available computer hardware, BRS can manage        up to 70 books in each directory. Each book can have up     to 999 chapters, and each chapter can have up to 9,999      pages. This gives BRS the capability to directly access     nearly 779 giga-bytes of information per directory.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            @·D                                                            09                                                                                 2. Multi-book searching, book-marking,                           and hyper-link capabilities                                                                              With its unique method of text organization, BRS enables    the reader to be cognizant of his/her exact position in     a data set collection at all times. It facilitates          searching for words or phrases in an entire collection.     Additionally, it allows manual or automatic marking of      all the documents in the collection for subsequent          reference.  An individual creating a book collection        can use BRS' hyperlink feature to establish virtually       unlimited number of hyperlinks cross-referencing various    segments of the data sets in order to facilitate            intelligent, efficient, and effective exploration and       study of the information provided.                                                                                                                                                                     @·D                                                            09                                                                                         3. Visual orientation                                                                                 The overview feature of the BRS displays a histogram of     the relative size of each chapter in a book and identifies  not only the reader's present position in the data set,     but also the location of any book marks as well as retrace  links.  With a simple mouse-click, the reader can jump to   any location in the book.  This feature is particularly     valuable in applications such as tape transcripts and       legal depositions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 @·D                                                            09                                                                                 4. Flexible data navigation capability                                                                        BRS helps the reader to freely navigate through a book      collection without becoming overwhelmed by the size of      the information being explored.  The return feature of      BRS keeps track of the reader's movements among various     data sets.  The reader can readily retrace his/her steps    in search of relevant information in sequence or by         multi-step backward leaps.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     @·D                                                            09                                                                                       5. Footnotes and comments                                                                               BRS facilitates inclusion of up to 10 pages of comment      with each page of a book.  For example, if the front        page is a profile of an entity such as a U.S. Senator,      then the first comment page could contain his or her        capsule resume; the second comment page could include       his/her committee assignments; the third comment screen     could have his/her voting record on major issues, etc.      The reader can readily toggle among these comment           screens in search of relevant details.  Additionally,       one can add his or her own full-page comment to each        page of the book as well as a two-line footnote remark      to each page.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      @·D                                                            09                                                                                    6. No special software required                                                                            All of the necessary software is embedded in books          processed by BRS.  The reader does not need any             special software to access and/or study the books.                                                                      Moreover, BRS does not require a fancy operating            environment or memory manager.  It works with mono-         chrome as well as VGA and super VGA monitors and can        be implemented on virtually any IBM-compatible              microcomputer with a DOS version 3.0 or higher.             It can also be effortlessly implemented as a DOS            application in a Windows operating environment.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                @·D                                                            09                                                                                   7. BRS data sets are tamper proof                                                                           Finally, one significant unique feature of BRS is that      the user cannot inadvertently alter the content of the      data sets.  It is impossible to accidently modify the       content of a BRS book. This feature makes distribution of   textual material in BRS form highly desirable.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         @·D                                                            09                                                                                      8. Sample BRS Applications                                                                               Although BRS was initially developed as a book reader,      its versatility has made the program uniquely suitable      for a vast array of diverse applications. The program's     uses are limited only by the one's imagination.                                                                         Its unique multi-screen commenting feature makes BRS        a suitable program for tutorials and question/answer        type learning instruments.  To date, BRS has been           used to manage the IRC, select government documents,        data base of government officials, audio tape scripts,      literary essays, documentation manuals, e-mail,             classroom lecture notes, and legal depositions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                    @·D                                                            09                                                                       Additionally, BRS has proved highly desirable for           remote testing and dissemination of large quantities        of textual information to large groups via the internet.                                                                BRS' most promising application remains to be electronic    publishing of books and journals.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  WDATA.HLP    UCS(c)1994                                            HLP -A-C                                                            Reader Help
