- I've been using Frame for quite a while now and am _very_ impressed. If
- her machine is fast enough (what platform will she be using?) Frame is
- great. I'm currently using it for both printed and on-line Hypertext
- documentation and am using conditional text to manage that.
-
- One of the biggest problems I've had with Frame is that when I am working
- with a large document (one with m any sub-docs) there is not yet a way to
- globally effect all open files (save, change a condition, etc) I must
- de-iconize each individually. Because I have 17 files in my current work,
- this can be time consuming as I keep all the files open because you can't
- do a cross reference to a closed file. Then again, I'm a window-a-holic.
