Limitations
because of the popular demand,  you can now save your work with this application as well as create your own copy.

Quitting a Master does not activate the next Master, thus killing references for all clones. That s a major weakness that will be solved shortly (end of June).

This app rely on a database to control file access, but that one is not yet integrated so avoid working on those file with other application at the same time since no control are done at that level yet (that is the  job of the database !).

The client look at all the machines on the network to find the server, so it may takes some times. In fact  since the server is not located  explicitly on one computer, users that want to use RemoteText thru out the Internet will fail. I will fix this very shortly because it s annoying and because i would like to get feedback on 
how well RemoteText performs when using Internet instead of one localNet. PLEASE DO SO and send me your results.

Recall this App is essentially to evaluate your needs !!! so please be kind enough to let me know of what you would like to get in, etc...

Presently the services are very limited, but they will grow to the power of 100 within the end of the year. :-)
LOOK the HYPERWORLD project ;Hyperworld.rtfd;Hyp;¬ further in this help.

No rtf or rtfd support...yet ! these should be available  in the near future.
No distributed graphic support. Those enhancements will not be available before the next new year (1994).

The topview  of the Server that display the text  allow editing. The idea here is to give the manager a chance to give a message to all
incoming new users of RemoteText.
Rule for the server: you never should edit the text in that area without asking for a lock on a selected zone (see How to use RemoteText).
It is just a question of time, sorry.

There is no warranty or other guarantee of fitness for this software, it is provided solely "as is".  Bug reports or fixes may be sent  to the authors, who may or may not act on them as they desire.

This application is a little module of a much more important work
on Cooperative tools, HyperText generation, parsing, building
and browsing documents of any kind (well text and image is a good start !).

This work is part of my thesis researches, i am presently doing at the University of ParisVIII, Saint-Denis, FRANCE.
