- ClipNfile for Windows
-
- We run across all kinds of useful information in Cyberspace every day. The
- problem is saving the data in an organized way so that we can find it again when
- we need it. This is why I wrote ClipNfile.
-
- ClipNfile allows you to set up storage folders for many different subjects
- (URLs, Finance, Medicine, Software, etc). You can also create subtopics. When
- you run across information you want to save, you need only select the folder
- button for the correct subject and then copy the information from the program
- you are currently using (Web browser, mail reader, etc) to the clipboard. The
- information is then automatically appended to the appropriate file. When you
- need to find the information someday, you know exactly where to look. You can
- also print these files of organized information with 2COL or JETCOL.
-
- You can make the ClipNfile window stay on top of other windows for easy topic
- selection and can add your own comment whenever an item is saved. You can use
- this comment as a key when you search for the information later. You can also
- add, remove and rename topic buttons easily. There is no limit to the number of
- topic buttons you can create although it is recommended for best organization
- to keep the buttons to less than 20.
-
- ClipNfile costs $15 plus $5 S&H, or $15 total with 2COL or JETCOL. SWREG #9642

- 2MENU
-
-
- 2MENU is a 2COL and JETCOL interface for use with Microsoft Windows 3.1 or
- higher.
-
- It provides an easy to use Windows interface and gives you the choice of either
- fast DOS text mode printing or professional quality TrueType printing using
- Windows Print Manager. 2MENU has a unique font control algorithm which optmizes
- the readability of multicolumn printing. Allows landscape as well as portrait
- on all Windows compatible printers.

-
- View, set, and save an unlimited number of printing option profiles.

- appearance you want prior to printing.
-

- printing. A large number of excerpts can be built up on the clipboard before
- printing. This saves printing unnecessary text.
-

- Print directly from clipboard or edit/excerpt clipboard before printing.
-
- Autoclip feature automatically collects excerpts copied to the clipboard from
- other applications and prints them all as one document. Great for printing HLP

-
- 2COL
-
- 2COL prints two columns, each 80 characters wide, on a standard sheet of paper.
- Most dot-matrix, inkjet and DeskJet printers are supported. By suppressing
- unnecessary blank lines and ignoring page breaks, 2COL is able to use a larger
- font while averageing approximately 4 pages on one side of a sheet than other
- compressed print programs. By using standard draft mode, 2COL prints faster and
- more readably than other programs which rely on subscript or graphics mode. 2COL
- will optionally print an exact number of pages/column retaining original
- formatting.
-
- 2COL is ideal for printing reference material (such as shareware manuals) and
- word processing drafts. It saves paper and storage space. By putting more
- information on less paper, 2COL saves you money when faxing or mailing.
-
- 2COL will optionally print in subscript mode, putting almost 8 pages on one side
- of a sheet of paper. By using 2COL's two-sided printing option, almost 16 pages
- of information can be printed on a single sheet of paper.
-
- The program has been designed to be easy to use, even for the novice. It comes
- with a demo/tutorial which demonstrates most of the printing options and shows
- how to use them.
-
- NEW FEATURES:
-
- Booklet/Pamphlet printing allows you to create professional looking manuals
- on most modern printers when used with the 2MENU Windows interface and TrueType
- fonts.
-
- 2COL will now print from 1-6 columns with column widths from 20 to 160
- characters. This is useful for printing labels and lists as well as
- printing wider documents such as source code listings on wide-carriage or
- some landscape-mode capable printers.
-
- Proportional fonts are now also supported.
-
- Prints landscape mode on Deskjet in addition to portrait.
-
- Wordwrapping and filtering functions have been added for printing wordprocessor
- formats (such as .WRI, Word, Wordstar, and WP Generic documents).
-
- Now also reformats to widen or shrink document width. Particularly useful for 17
- char/inch printers or for people who have trouble reading 20 char/inch print.
-
- Prints pages in reverse order to eliminate paper shuffling with sheet feed
- printers: Deskjets, Inkjets..etc. Particularly useful when printing on both
- sides
-
- User defined initialization strings are now supported to select draft/LQ,
- specific fonts, etc.
-
- Macros available for printing directly from WordPerfect and WFW ($3 each).
-
- Automatically adjusts line spacing to eliminate partly filled last pages.
-
-
- OPTIONS:
- * the number of lines/page to print
- * the maximum number of consecutive blank lines to allow
- * the column width
- * whether to pause for single sheet feeding
- * numbering each source and/or output page
- * enable IBM graphics characters(dot matrix only)
- * top margin, left margin settings
- * print only odd/even pages - for two-sided printing
- * to display total number of output pages before printing.
- * to prescan the document and automatically optimize margins
- * whether to automatically adjust line spacing to fill or
- eliminate partial pages at end
- * adjustment for different page length: A4, legal, etc.
- * user specified initialzation string.
-
- Hardware requirements: IBM compatible computer, 256K RAM, dot matrix
- or DeskJet printer. While 2COL will run on 17 cpi printers, a
- printer capable of 20 char/inch is best. For Epson FX,LQ,LX and many
- IBM compatible dot matrix printers. All DeskJet models supported.
-
- Other requirements: MS-DOS 3 or higher.

-
- JETCOL includes 10 specially designed soft fonts in graduated sizes which are
