-
- Sierra Software Innovations has just completed negotiations with DataPak
- Software for distribution of their Word Solution Engine a high speed TextEdit
- replacement. We are finishing up the implementation of a TTEView replacement
- that utilizes that engine.
-
- Some of the benefits are:
-
- 1) Large text structures - > 32K !
- 2) Real Tabs. The width can be specified
- 3) Very fast editting
- 4) No license fees beyond initial purchase
- 5) Script Manager compatibility
-
- The TTEView replacement, tentatively called "SuperTEView", will be bundled with
- a complete "Word Solution Engine" package.
-
- The "Word Solution Engine" is a 27K object code library that adds TextEdit like
- capabilities with major improvements in performance.
-
- Current plans call for selling the complete package for $350 to $400. This
- will include:
-
- 1) The Word Solution Engine (normally $300)
- 2) The SuperTEView unit - MPW Pascal and Think Pascal
- 3) Free Technical Support - Phone and EMail
- 4) Prompt fixes to any bugs!
- 5) Full source code to the SuperTEView unit
-
- This product will be available by the MADA meeting at MacWorld Expo in August.
-
- This is intended to be the first of a series of quality building blocks based
- on DataPak Software engines. DataPak Software has just announced a further
- add-on enhancement that will allow one to have almost all the capabilities of a
- full word processor, paragraph level line spacing, adjustable tabs, leaders,
- etc. Our intent is to follow up SuperTEView with an enhancement that uses the
- new DataPak add-on. DataPak Software is selling the add-on for $170.
-
- There will also be a disk buffering package available that will enable one to
- edit large files without requiring that the entire file be in memory.
-
- We are also seeking a few quality beta testers to exhaustively test the
- capabilities of the "Word Solution Engine" and the SuperTEView unit.
- Developers regularly using multi-byte and right to left scripts are especially
- needed.
-
- We are also soliciting suggestions.
-
- Please forward any beta tester requests or suggestions to D2086,
- or call (702) 832 - 0300.
