- >> Advantages of TXDB, also on Notebook and HP200LX Palmtop
- --------------------------------------------------------
- Other hypertext-systems don't allow to change the text or the
- connections and you must use a complier, like for Windows-Help-
- Files the HELP-COMPILER.
- ++ TXDB is an interpreter, you can change the texts all the time,
- ++ new pages, references are very simple to make, no compiler needed,
- ++ the reader inserts new connections = greater motivation
- ++ the format for authoring or reading the text is identical!
- intuitiv, ergonomic
- ++ the modular structure is optimal for cooperative authoring,
- two or more persons have common parts of HyperText,
- brainstorming: one page = one idea,
- Palmtop, Notebook user: Other hypertext-systems must be controlled
- by a "Mouse", no direct selections from many topics on one keystroke,
- other systems needs much more memory.
- ++ TXDB is optimised on keyboard-control,
- ++ select direct, easily and press a key to continue,
- ++ TXDB is a compact framework, only 70 KB EXE-File,
- ++ only 5% capacity of a standard 1,4 MB diskette!
- ++ Zoom: on HP200LX from Hewlett Packard zoom can be used:
- e.g. texts with 60 columns, 18 rows or bigger.
