- SeekEasy (v5.0) by Correlation Systems REGISTRATION ($30.00)
-
- SeekEasy is a VERY easy-to-use, "flexible match" information-retrieval
- program. It lets you search a file for a character string, and
- returns the "best matches" it finds to your request, listed in the
- order of match quality. It does this even if the item found is not
- exactly what you requested, has words in it that were not in your
- request, doesn't use words spelled exactly the same way, etc.
-
- With SeekEasy, "Close Is Good Enough!"
-
- SeekEasy lets you find items when you only "pretty much" remember how
- you filed them - or aren't even sure WHAT is in the database, but want
- to see everything on a particular topic. Typical applications:
-
- - Indexing photographs by their descriptions.
- - Finding information filed and indexed by someone else. With
- SeekEasy, you don't have to "think like the person who filed it" to
- be able to find information later.
- - Storing miscellaneous facts all in a heap, for later recall by
- topic as needed.
- - Storing Table Of Contents entries from magazines, so even
- YEARS later you can find all articles on a given topic! How many
- times have you wished for THIS ability?
-
- SeekEasy will store items into files of its own unique data format,
- and it will search its own data files or virtually any other file,
- even .COM and .EXE files if you wish. For files in SeekEasy data
- format, SeekEasy supports editing, deleting, etc. of the data. For
- non-SeekEasy formats only searching is allowed.
-
- Hardware Requirements: SeekEasy runs on PC-DOS or MS-DOS 2.0 or
- higher. SeekEasy requires 75K of available RAM to run. This is not a
- problem with most systems, unless they are filled up with
- memory-resident utilities. SeekEasy will work with data files up to 4
- megabytes in size.
-
- PLEASE NOTE: This archive is CRIPPLEDOCed. In short the file contains
- a brief documentation file suitable for evaluation purposes. A larger
- and more complete manual is available upon registration.
