- The Plusses of HyperTEX+
-
- If you order HyperTEX+ you can enjoy all the benefits of HyperTEX
- and more! Here are some HyperTEX PLUSSES:
-
- Plus 1 HyperTEX+ documents are smaller!
-
- Hyperdocuments created with HyperTEX+ are smaller
- than hyperdocuments created with HyperTEX. A LOT
- SMALLER! For example, when you convert an ASCII
- file which is, say 100K in size using HyperTEX
- you will end up with a hyperdocument file which
- is nearly 300K in size. Not so with HyperTEX+.
- The size of the hyperdocument is virtually the
- SAME size as the origninal. In fact it might
- even be SMALLER, because HyperTEX+ strips out all
- control characters from an ASCII file during the
- conversion process. If you value your disk space
- HyperTEX+ is what you need!
-
- Plus 2 More and more versatile link types!
-
- With HyperTEX, you have basically three types
- of links available to you: Text, Program and
- Document. These are available with HyperTEX+
- too, but there's more. For example, with
- HyperTEX+, you not only can link to a document,
- but you can specify which frame in the document
- you want to link to. This gives you much more
- powerful hypertext access between documents.
- AND, you can also create links to ordinary text
- files. That way, if you have certain text
- files which you want to be able to view from
- within a document, but you don't want the file
- to be a hyperdocument, with hyperlinks, you
- can include it as part of your system.
-
- Plus 3 The HyperTEX+ Reader program is BETTER!
-
- * HTREAD.EXE, the program which allows you to
- read a hyperdocument you create, has much more
- to offer with HyperTEX+.
-
- The Read History function is somewhat 'automatic'
- with HyperTEX+. When you traverse links within
- a hyperdocument, the reader keeps track of those
- links, as with HyperTEX. The plus is that if
- you want to go back to a previous link in the
- chain, just press the 'p' key. To go forward
- to the next link, press the 'n' key. This feature
- is sometimes more convenient than using the
- Read History function, which allows you to
- pick links from a list. The HyperTEX+ reader
- automatically selects a link!
-
- Furthermore, with HyperTEX+, HTREAD marks the
- first frame from which a hyperlink is accessed
- as the ROOT frame, so that the chain is complete.
-
- * HTREAD is menu driven! Yes, if you want to make
- use of the functions available in the reader
- program, you can call up a menu system by
- pressing ALT-M. All the basic functions of the
- reader are accessible from the menu, such as
- searching, accessing the index, and configuring
- the foreground and background colours.
-
- * More configuration power!
-
- You can configure more than just colours with
- the HyperTEX+ reader. You have control over what
- the message on the top line of the reader program
- says with the HyperTEX+ reader By default, the
- message says 'HyperTEX+ Reader', but by using the
- program SETCFG.EXE, you can have it say whatever
- you like! This might be as simple a matter as
- including the information about the availability
- of the menuing system and online help for use with
- the reader, with a message such as:
-
- 'F1 = HELP ALT-M = Menu'
-
-
- All in all, I'm sure you will agree, HyperTEX+ is worth the
- registration cost! Register today!
