Subject: BanzaiSlider (never say newton is lost!)
(newton gps navigation talking moving map slides)
Newton is not dead, just lost and bought back by Apple. Find your
own way with BanzaiSlider!
This version replaces Bonzai and Banzai4800 and the first version
of BanzaiSlider.
The old BanzaiSlider version had more of the feel of sliding the
maps as if they were huge virtual screens that you could zoom in and out of
under the newton window (see BanzaiReader). Another new feature, unlimited
zoomout with newton press pict books.
The current version of BanzaiSlider has a map turnoff button to
allow you to see ETA's (now corrected to your time zone). The zoom slider
control is placed for compatibility to older mp120 and mp130.
Compatible with Garmin II and III (set at 4800 baud and with NMEA
sentence filter) as well as Scoutmaster GPS (just set Scoutmaster's
baudrate at 4800).
Rich Drinkard, a beta tester, made some suggestions on activity
sounds and map display and so that is improved. He also requested the
unlimited zoomout. Evidentally his 28meg flashcard on a mp2100 could hold a
very large map to find his way around. I believe we are going to see bigger
than 4 meg flashcards officially supported by apple on the mp2100.
Rich Drinkard reported me experiments that tripmate does speak NMEA
sentences! So, I shall be working on a version for it!
I am working on a mp100 Garmin II III and Scoutmaster version with
limited features.

Subject: TMap: A Newton Map of the Boston Subway
When I purchased the "Fodor's 94" card for my Newton, I noticed it
didn't contain a subway map for Boston, so I wrote this fairly small
(57K on your Newton) application. The left and right arrow buttons
scroll the map as you'd expect; the normal Newton up and down buttons
work the vertical scrolling. The overview center button pops up a
little about box. You can also "grab" the map with your pen and drag it
around.

Subject: Calendar Marker 1.2 Newton App
Every time you open the Dates application, Calendar Marker swiftly checks
for any and all day notes and meetings in the current month. It also does
this check when you change or make a new appointment, or select a new day
to view. It then draws a box around any day with a day note, and places a
small line to the left of any day with a meeting. A line is drawn near the
top of a day with one or more morning meetings, while a line is drawn near
the bottom for one or more afternoon meetings.
Calendar Marker displays week numbers to the left of the month. It counts
the first week in a year with more than 3 days as week 1. If the first week
in a year has 3 or fewer days in it, it is numbered the same a the last
week of the previous year. If the last week in a year has fewer than 4 days
in it, it is numbered 1. Those are the rules.

Did you ever sign up for a class, start attending it, and then remember

Well suffer no more fellow Newt owner!
Assuming you're a true Newt freek and have it with you nearly 100% of
the time, you're probably going to find this piece of stationery quite
useful.
Rate-A-Course lets you keep track of:
The course #/name
The Prof's Name (and you can select names directly from the Names soup
if you want)
The status of the class ('Breeze',
'Cool','Headbanger','OK','Sucks','Totally Blows' are predefined)
When it's offered (predefined: Fall/Spring/Summer Semester,
First/Second/Third/Fourth Quarter)
Who recommended the course to you (you can select names directly from
the Names soup if you want) -- this is good so you know who to go back
to thank or otherwise deal with depending on how the class actually
turned out ;->
When the class was taken (if you do end up taking it) -- same
predefined periods as when it's offered
What grade you received (lots of predefined's, although you'll
probably only use the 'A' selection right?)
And a never-ending comments field so you can add whatever you want
(e.g., where you took the course, what the prof was REALLY like, grading
policies, adhearance to the syllabus, tips, etc...)
If you have questions, comments, suggestions, etc., want to make a
donation (US funds), or just want to drop me a postcard saying this
thing saved you from taking a really crappy class, send a note to:

T-Cube v1.0
August 12, 1994
Designed by: Dan Venolia (dvenolia@apple.com) & Forrest Neiberg
Newton Port: Les Vogel
T-Cube is a new way of entering characters and text on Newton. It
complements handwriting recognition and the soft keyboard. Characters
correspond to "flick" gestures made into the T-Cube window.
After you have installed T-Cube, it is accessed by tapping its button in
the Note Pad status bar. T-Cube shows nine buttons arranged like a wheel.
Pressing and holding the pen down in any of the button shows a different
"pie menu" containing eight characters. You can "type" a character by
moving the pen in one of the eight directions, then lifting it.
This sounds like a tedious way to type, but as you start to memorize common
characters, such as space and "e", you can make the gesture directly,
without invoking the pie menu. Using the menu, an "e" is made by pressing
in the "north" button and dragging to the north-east. As a gesture, this
is a simple flick that starts in the north button and proceeds to the
north-east. You should have the most common characters memorized after
only an hour of use.
More information on the design of T-Cube can be found in:
Venolia, D. and Neiberg, F. "T-Cube: A Fast, Self-Disclosing Pen-Based
Alphabet," in Proceedings of CHI '94 (Boston, April 24-28, 1994), ACM

Subject: "Wunschzettel" for Newton
wzettel-124.hqx is the English version
wzettel-124-de.hqx is the German version
"Wunschzettel" is the German word for"list of wishes". Consequently
it is a (check-)list manager. I know, there are more list managers "out there".
But this one has a special feature: Each item you once made can be "remembered"
by "Wunschzettel". So after entering its name once you can reuse the item over
and over again just on two "taps".
A typical example is a shopping list. Instead of writing again and again items
like "bread", "tooth-paste", ... you can select these items from dynamically
growing popup lists. After a short time you have all those things in your popup
that you might want to buy. This is also quite usefull to check out if you have
forgotten anything to put on your list.
More Features of "Wunschzettel":
- Supports multiple lists (each one has its own pop-up lists).
- On each list, items can be assigned to one (of three) different named
categories.
- Sort selected items by four different criteria:
alpha, checked+alpha, categories+alpha, checked+categories+alpha.
