Subject: NewtCase 2.1 DEMO - Newton Package Management Utility [Mac]
This is an update to v2.0. We fixed a few bugs with NCK archives and
updated the documentation.
Demo available on CompuServe, America Online, eWorld and AppleLink by March
1st. Available at
"nwtcse21.zip" is for Windows users, "NewtCase 2.1 (Mac).sit" is for
Macintosh users.
This is a demo release of NewtCase v2.1. The commercial version is
distributed by PelicanWare (800/655-NEWT or 503/221-1148,
bettes@teleport.com). This demo will expire 30 days after installation.
An upgrade is available for registered users of previous versions, see the
documentation for pricing and other information.
NewtCase archives Newton packages to reduce heap memory requirements,
alleviate conflicts between applications, and clean up the Extras drawer.
Archived packages do not show up in the Extras drawer, but can be launched
or reinstalled at any time using NewtCase. With NewtCase, you can
temporarily deinstall applications without having to remove them. NewtCase
can launch an archived package and, when you quit that package,
automatically re-archive it.
Additions since version 1.1:
+ Added a "NCK Archive" that is backed up by the Connection Kit.
+ Old style archives are now called "Quick Archives" (they are faster than
NCK Archives).
+ Added a QuickLaunch list that lets you launch any installed or Quick
Archived package without opening NewtCase.
+ Nine user configurable sets.
+ Now supports multiple-package selection for filing and routing
(archive/install/remove/run).
