-
- DEX-i-cal was origianlly designed to be useful for the person
- who is not computer smart. It began as a simple rolodex,
- utilizing a screen design that does not intrude upon the
- user's need to extract or enter information. It's layout is
- much like one would see on any filecard, making it very user
- friendly.
-
- The capabilities of the program expanded even as it kept its
- simple format. The original telephone rolodex idea became a
- telephone dialer as well, a straightforward memo file was
- added that does not abuse memory and a number of calendar
- utilities were added as well.
-
- DEX-i-cal is not flashy. It is not weighted down by myriads
- of utilities that would not be useful to the average user.
- It aims to present screens that are easily understood by all
- and does not detract from the work at hand.
-
- An interactive Tutorial is offered as part of the program.
- The user is walked through the program, step by step and
- screen by screen. It should take about a half an hour to go
- through through the tutorial. Those who have a good deal of
- experience with computers might understand the program even
- without the Tutorial.
-
- Now some of the drawbacks.
-
- The Tutorial was written for version 4.07....never released.
- I have spent my time upgrading the program, and have more
- immediate upgrades in mind before going back to bring the
- tutorial up to date. Upgrading is non-ending.
-
- This is the full program, as of now, but your use is limited
- to 40 filecards, (120 phone numbers). Where there was a 6
- month restriction on the earlier demo, that limitation has
- been removed.
