INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS NAVIGATOR

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

I. WELCOME

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

Before embarking, we wish to welcome you to the Windows Navigator

("WinNav"), and thank both our registered users and new users for

trying our Microsoft Windows application.

1.1. INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS NAVIGATOR

WinNav is a Microsoft Windows application designed to allow users

to navigate and explore all of the files, directories and infor-

mation contained on their system drives and hard disks, and to

manage same with both Windows and standard DOS applications

without leaving the Windows environment.

It features many new and unusual features that can be customized

by each user to suit his or her own application programs and data

files; these features in some ways extend well beyond those of

Windows' Program Manager, File Manager and MS-DOS Executives, or

any other Windows application to date. WinNav offers an intelli-

gent, customizable interface that allows users to optimize Micro-

soft Windows to fit their specific needs.

1.2. SOME OF ITS CAPABILITIES

While WinNav does not take the "everything and the kitchen sink"

approach of similar DOS utilities such as Lotus Magellan,

PCTools/PCShell and XTree, and certainly lacks in many of their

features, it offers one important capability that they don't --

it does Windows! As a result it shines in comparison to their

dull interface, allows better mouse control, provides familiar

controls and direct access to Windows clipboard.

Finding those hidden files are quick and simple through the use

of WinNav's local, branch and global explore features that allow

you to match multiple filespecs from any drive or directory on

your system and gather them into a single list window.

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

WELCOME -- Page 2

THE NAVIGATOR IS "DEVELOPMENT-WARE"

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

Then scroll through each data or executable file in the list

while viewing its contents in the quick view window which offers

text, snoop, WordStar modes as well as ARC, ZIP and LZH directory

modes, or invoke a basic file type feature that provides an

alternative to invoking the DOS type command to view unlimited

length text files.

When you've located the file you want, WinNav can instantly open,

launch or run every file on your system, both executable and data

files, via any Windows or DOS application with only a few key-

strokes or clicks of a mouse button. It also provides the abil-

ity to launch groups of multiple applications, and to control

their display on the screen.

An alternative approach to exploring for files or file groups is

available through WinNav's unique implementation of "Alias Direc-

tories" which offers an escape from the archaic concept of direc-

tory trees and path name restrictions.

Its comprehensive "Pack" and "Unpack" features provides access to

popular file archive and compression utilities via launch dialog

panels. You'll quickly agree that WinNav offers the most sophis-

ticated and complete support available in any Windows applica-

tion, for SEA's and PK's ARC, LHARC and PKZIP archive or

compression utilities. In addition, it fully supports automated

conversions of packed files to and from *.ARC, *.LZH, *.ZIP,

*.PAK, *.DWC, *.CPR, *.LBR, *.SQZ, *.LZS, *.MD and *.ZOO compres-

sion formats, and virus scanning, with Kenneth Starling's CVT and

McAfee Associates' virus SCAN shareware utility programs,

together with the applicable DOS archive or library applications.

So even without the "kitchen sink" WinNav still provides some of

the basic and most useful features included in Lotus Magellan,

PCTools/PCShell and XTree, as well as a few features and capabil-

ities that even they don't offer.

1.3. THE NAVIGATOR IS "DEVELOPMENT-WARE"

As WinNav is an evolving application under continued development,

being a prototype for a Lotus Magellan/XTree type executive for

THE NAVIGATOR IS "DEVELOPMENT-WARE"

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

Microsoft Windows, and is distributed for evaluation purposes

through "shareware" channels, it should be considered

"Development-Ware" and not "shareware" per Se.

Generally, the term "shareware" refers to a relatively mature

copyrighted product which is being distributed for evaluation and

marketing purposes through non-retail channels.

Although "Development-Ware" is a copyrighted product distributed

and marketed as is shareware, it is far from a "mature" product,

but is submitted as an evolving application and development tool.

However, this should not imply that it is a "beta" version of an

application still undergoing testing -- "Development-Ware" is a

fully tested, finished product in the conventional sense. It is

rather a conceptual distinction, in a sense, a few utilities

extracted from a long wish list of what one might like to have in

the ultimate application program; not unlike a writers conception

of the "Great American Novel."

Furthermore, "Development-Ware" should not be confused with

"Cripple-Ware" or other types of demo programs which disable

functions in order to tease a user into purchasing a registered

copy. Any unimplemented functions in "Development-Ware," such as

WinNav, should be considered just that -- unimplemented; they

have not yet been fully developed or included in either the reg-

istered or unregistered versions, but are only "ideas" of possi-

ble functions that might be implemented or abandoned in future

releases of the application.

"Development-Ware" is distributed under four basic premises:

(1) If the product has proceeded to a point in develop-

ment and testing, as to offer features that users

need or can make use of now -- then let them use it

now!

(2) Products often develop in a vacuum without "real"

user feedback, this can result in the final applica-

tion duplicating the functions of other applications

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

WELCOME -- Page 4

THE NAVIGATOR IS "DEVELOPMENT-WARE"

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

or having little or no value to the PC community, and

ultimately no market for the product --then don't

develop it if no one wants it!

(3) Quality software takes time and money to develop; and

for this reason, many needed applications and good

ideas never mature into final products simply because

small or part-time developers cannot compete with

commercial software developers and publishers and

therefore cannot afford to produce the final polished

product -- then solicit support for your application

and ideas at their inception, from other small devel-

opers and potential users!

(4) Worthwhile products will be supported, those that are

not should not be developed -- then only develop,

produce and enhance application when enough small

developers and "real" users express an interest in

and are willing to support it, through both registra-

tion and constructive feedback or through co-

development or contributions of useful code!

As indicated, distribution of "Development-Ware" of an applica-

tion can be of substantial benefit to both its developers and

ultimate users. It permits the user to benefit from many of the

features and functions of a final product, at little or no

expense; it provides "real" end-user input into the actual devel-

opment of a product, allowing the developer to consider those

features deemed important to the user and otherwise avoid

existing and foreseeable problems, whether real or cosmetic, that

might be incorporated into a final product and provides a means

of quickly remedying those problems as the application grows; it

allows the developer to associate other developers on a co-

operative basis, informally or contractual basis; it allows

single or multilevel versions of the product to be developed,

e.g., "shareware," "custom" and "retail" versions, and allows

spin-off products to be developed incorporating or standardizing

features; and it offsets development costs through registration

and licensing fees, through "shareware" and "custom" versions,

and remuneration and advances from commercial software publishers

and distributors. And, perhaps most importantly, it gives the

competition a peek and a shot a making their own products just a

little bit better; a chance to out program the competition rather

than litigate them into oblivion (users and the development com-

munity as a whole should not suffer by and simply don't benefit

from stagnated applications and interfaces from companies who try

to hold on to their market share without having to provide com-

petitive products).

Since its initial development in late 1988 and first public

release in May, 1989, WinNav has undergone many changes and has

received tremendous response and support from both its registered

users, and welcome feedback and suggestions from registered and

non-registered users alike. Judging from this response, I can

safely say that both the "Development-Ware" concept and the

shareware system is alive and flourishing as a viable means of

making quality software available at reasonable cost.

In creating WinNav, which I began as a simple learning exercise

and a development tool for a small file management and viewer

application, I set out to make a crude Windows application that

would allow one to view the first few lines of a file and then

copy and delete them as needed. However, my initial plans appar-

ently got sidetracked by some rather large gaps in the existing

shareware applications available to Windows users. In an attempt

to satisfy some of the basic needs of myself and as many other

Windows users as possible the plan for WinNav was conceived -- to

develop a quick, simple and intelligent executive for Microsoft

Windows, which would provide means of seeing what was in a file

before copying, deleting or renaming it, a way of running and

loading every day applications without having to create complex

menu files, a way of using most popular archive utilities from

within Windows without abandoning the graphic environment for the

DOS command line prompt, and, most importantly, providing Windows

with file explore and group features similar to existing DOS

applications. Hopefully, each version of WinNav moves a little

closer to these goals.

Along the way, many individuals have suggested features and

changes in the program that are not feasible in the current

design of WinNav or are simply beyond my present technical exper-

tise -- please keep in mind that I am a full time attorney in

WHY REGISTER NOW?

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

Houston, Texas, and WinNav is only a part-time project. However,

some of those user needs and suggestions have been merged into

the current design of WinNav, or may, if support and interest

continues and I can figure out how to do it technically and

financially, be implemented in future versions.

But don't expect the impossible, it is doubtful that the tremen-

dous power and capability of a DOS application such as Lotus

Magellan or PCTools can ever be satisfactory implemented in the

Windows environment as it now exists. Therefore, the user should

not expect WinNav to ever mature to the level Lotus Magellan, but

hopefully this author might be able to scratch the surface of

some of Magellan's more basic functions for the benefit of all

Windows users.

1.4. WHY REGISTER NOW?

Should you register WinNav now, or wait for the "finished" prod-

uct?

That depends ...

Hopefully, WinNav will never be a "mature" product per Se, but

will always be considered "Development-Ware" -- their are too

many enhancements that could be added and the wish list still

grows.

When the terms "not fully functional" are used in conjunction

with WinNav, they are used from the developer's standpoint and

not that of the user; it simply means that I hope to continue to

add many major enhancements to future releases of the applica-

tion, some of which may appear from time-to-time in grayed menu

items and non-functional dialog panels. These unimplemented

functions could just as well be omitted from a particular release

of WinNav, and it been called a "finished" product -- sort of

like dBase IV and the infamous 1.0 release. From a users' point

of view, however, many of its existing functions could in their

own rights be finished standalone products with capabilities

exceeding other Windows applications being commercially marketed.

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

WELCOME -- Page 7

WHY REGISTER NOW?

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

So the foregoing should not be the basis of any decision not to

Other future releases may include some basic text search and view

file format filters as does Magellan, PCTools and XTree, more

elaborate launching of applications and files, and a more graphi-

cal interface; however, this is only a "wish" list and not a

guarantee or warranty that such features will ever be implemented

-- the release of updated versions of WinNav, as with "share-

ware," will depend on the continued support of its registered

users.

Please keep in mind that WinNav will only continue to be enhanced

and released as "Development-Ware" through shareware channels, so

long as its users demonstrate continued interest and support for

the product.

Another good reason for registering the current release of WinNav

is that the basic registration fee for new users, generally, has

increased with each major enhancement to or release of WinNav,

whereas existing registered users continue to be able to upgrade

their versions for only a nominal fee.

At a minimum, registered users will generally be able to obtain

any version of WinNav that is distributed through shareware chan-

nels, for the cost of the media and handling (the current charge

is shown in the "Registered User's License" and "Order Forms"

sections of this User's Guide).

In addition, registered users, contributing to the support and

development of future versions of WinNav, will be given notice of

all major new releases, and provided with an authorization code

to disable the opening and closing prompts for registration of

their copy.

So we return to the question, "Should you register WinNav now, or

wait for the "finished" product?"

USE AND DISTRIBUTION OF UNREGISTERED COPIES

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The answers are simple . . . register WinNav when it is useful to

you, when you find you are using its features on a regular basis,

if you want to contribute to and encourage its continued develop-

ment, if you want to save a few bucks by avoiding the increase in

registration on the next major release, when you're starting to

feel guilty, or . . . .

Full information on registration and licensing are contained

elsewhere in this manual.

1.5. USE AND DISTRIBUTION OF UNREGISTERED COPIES

Unregistered copies of WinNav are for evaluation purposes only,

and may be distributed through normal shareware channels. Please

distribute these evaluation copies to other bulletin boards and

users.

Each release of WinNav will be first posted on Fox Micro's BBS,

in Houston, Texas, at (713) 859-9105 (Public Node) and (713)

859-9108 (Private Node). Those interested in Microsoft Windows

may find that the Windows and OS/2 conference and file area on

this board to be one of the best and most active in the Houston

area.

In addition copies are uploaded to various Compuserve forums'

software libraries, including the Microsoft Windows (MSWIN) and

third-party Windows Developers forums (WINAPA and WINAPB), the

Samna forum (SAMNA), and other Windows and PC related forums,

GEnie's Microsoft Connection, PKWare's BBS (414) 352-7176 and the

ABOUT THIS GUIDE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

1.6. ABOUT THIS GUIDE

This guide is designed to help you explore and use WinNav for

Microsoft Windows; however, it, like WinNav, is in the develop-

ment stage, and is far from complete. Again, the point is to get

the application program to the user at the earliest possible date

in its development -- the manual, hopefully, will catch up later.

Besides, its always fun to investigate and discover undocumented

functions and uses for any application program.

Nevertheless, throughout this manual, every effort has been made

explain those functions applicable to this release of WinNav, and

to point out those functions which have not been implemented;

hopefully, this will avoid needless confusion and frustration for

its users.

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

II. LEARNING TO NAVIGATE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

2.1. STARTING WINNAV

WinNav may be activated as is any other Windows Application, and

may also be installed in the "load" or "run" sections of the

WIN.INI file.

2.2. USING WINNAV

2.2.1. General Features and Commands

Function menus or dialog panels, as most features of WinNav,

can be invoked through the menu bar, either through the use of

the keyboard or mouse. They may be canceled by pressing the

[ESC] key or a "Quit" ([Alt]+[Q]) button exit any dialog panel.

Their default commands and options can be selected by clicking

with the mouse, or by using the [Tab], space bar or cursor

keys, and invoked by pressing the [Enter] key or by the "OK"

([Alt]+[O]) button.

Other functions or selections are invoked by accelerator and

Alt-Key combinations. The Alt-Key combination may be used by

pressing the [Alt] key in combination with a character key

which matches a window or dialog control that has an underlined

character displayed. Accelerator keys can be located by invok-

ing the various "Help" menus or by pressing the [F1] function

key, other accelerator key combinations may be found in

applicable sections throughout this manual.

Message boxes are displayed on the screen automatically, and

can be canceled by pressing the "space bar" or an "OK"

([Alt]+[O]) button.

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

LEARNING TO NAVIGATE -- Page 12

USING WINNAV

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

"Cursor keys" generally include the left, right, up and down

arrow keys, the [Home], [End], [Page Up] and [Page Down].

These may also be used in some instances in combination with

the [Shift] and [Ctrl] keys, for example, the [Ctrl]+[Right

Arrow] or [Left Arrow] keys can toggle between the list and

view windows, and the [Shift]+[Up Arrow] or [Down Arrow] key

combinations are used to mark multiple file selections in the

list window.

Key and mouse controls may be different if the directory list-

ing or view windows have the current or active focus.

WinNav's window size and location can be manipulated through

the use of the system menu (invoked by pressing the [Alt]+[-

SpaceBar] key combination or by clicking the mouse on the [-]

system menu symbol in the upper left corner of WinNav's parent

window), maximized by pressing [Alt]+[F10] combination, mini-

mized by the [Alt]+[F9] keys, sized by the [Alt]+[F8] and cur-

sor keys, moved by the [Alt]+[F7] and cursor keys, or restored

by pressing the [Alt]+[F5] key combination. The mouse can also

be used to maximize, minimize or restore the applications win-

dow by clicking on the up and down arrow symbols in the upper

right of WinNav's parent windows, double clicking the caption

bar or by dragging the window border..

2.2.2. The Directory List

Upon loading WinNav, you are then presented with a listing of

the current directory from which you may select a file, drive

or directory, together with various child windows that provide

you with current information.

The default for the list of files is *.* which displays all

files in the current or designated directory, unless a file was

named in the command line used to invoke WinNav..

The List menu commands allows the directory list to display

global and recursive file specifications from every disk or

drive on the user's system, which are selected through the use

of the Local, Branch and Global Explore dialog panels; these

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

LEARNING TO NAVIGATE -- Page 13

USING WINNAV

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

options allow the displayed list of file names to be limited or

expanded to particular groupings of files, and allow recursive

drive and directory searches.

In addition you may assign and select an Alias Directory or

Group listing from either the Local or Branch dialog panels and

search for multiple preassigned groups of files from the Global

Explore dialog panel.

Selections are made by moving the listbox current selection

bar, up or down, to the desired file, directory or drive item.

This is accomplished through the use of the up and down key-

board cursor control keys, e.g., the page up or down, home or

end or up and down arrow keys, or by clicking or dragging a

mouse.

Multiple file names may be selected by dragging the mouse over

the listed file names or through the use of the [Shift] and

[Ctrl] keys in conjunction with the arrow or cursor keys or

clicking the left mouse button.

The "List" window may be toggled from standard to Maximized

(Zoom) modes by (1) repeatedly pressing the [F8] function key

while the list box has the current focus, or (2) the "Window"

pop-up menu's "Max List" option. In addition, the Max List

mode can be invoked by pressing the [F11] function key even

when the "List" window does not have the current focus. The

list window can be subsequently restored to standard split Col-

umn mode by pressing the [F9] function key.

WinNav's "List" and "Quick View" windows may be switched from

standard to split Row screen mode by (1) pressing the [F10]

function key, or (2) the "Window" pop-up menu's "Rows" option.

To restore the standard Column mode (1) press the [F9] function

key or (2) select the "Columns" option from the "Window" pop-up

menu.

2.2.3. Changing Drives and Directories

You may select a new directory or disk drive from the directory

list, by one of the following options: and then switch to it by

either pressing the return key or by double-clicking on it with

the mouse.

(1) Selecting the drive or directory with the cursor

control keys and then pressing return, or

(2) Pointing to the drive or directory and then double-

clicking the left mouse button.

(3) Backing up the directory tree by pressing the [Left

Arrow] key while in the "List" mode. This option

will result in the list box switching to the parent

of the current subdirectory until the root direc-

tory is reached; thereafter, pressing the [Left

Arrow] key will first collapse the directory to

display only subdirectories and disk drives, and a

second press will collapse the list box to display

system drives only.

The current path or directory may also be changed through the

List menu bar's "List" "Local" selection ([Alt]+[L], then [L])

keyboard combination, which displays the "Path Explore" panel.

The Path panel provides a simple set path to edit boxes where

the full pathspec, including designated filespec, may be manu-

ally typed.

More powerful and sophisticated Path panel features may be pro-

vided through preassigned "Alias Directories." The Alias

Directories' listings may be added to, updated or deleted by

use of the "New," "Update" and "Remove" buttons immediately

below the Alias Directories list box.

There is also a multiple selection extension ("Ext") listing

which will automatically complete the files to be selected edit

box with one or more selected file extensions and wildcards.

The Path Explore panel also allows you to designate whether to

include Hidden, Read Only and System Files, Drives or Directory

names in the resulting list window by checking the appropriate

check boxes. Whereas the "Display" group of grayed buttons

indicate what file or directory information will be displayed

in either a Row or Maximized List window.

The Path panel also provides the ability to recurse all subdi-

rectories of the designated directory path, for inclusion of

matching files in the resulting list window, by simply marking

the appropriate check box. The Branch List menu selection

invokes an identical Path Explore dialog panel, but with the

recurse all subdirectories box already checked.

2.2.4. "Quick View"

The "Quick View" window, located to the right of the List win-

dow in standard "Columns" mode or below the list in the split

"Rows" mode, will display the initial lines of the currently

selected file. This window will be updated automatically when

you select a new file and release the cursor control key or

left mouse button.

The View window attempts to automatically determine the appro-

priate view mode for the current selected file, directory or

drive in the List window, and display it in the following

modes:

Text Text Attempts to display files in a simple

ASCII/ANSI text mode.

Text Snoop Attempts to extract all printable text from

any

file, whether a data or executable file.

Text WordStar Attempts to display files in a text mode

(7 bit) after striping the high order bit (used by

various applications such as WordStar for

storing printer and control characters/com-

mands).

Dir ARC Dir Shows a directory of the contents of an

*.ARC archive/compressed file.

Dir LZH Dir Shows a directory of the contents of an

*.LZH, *.LSH or *.ICE archive/compressed

file.

Dir ZIP Dir Shows a directory of the contents of a

*.ZIP archive/compressed file.

DIr Tree Shows the directory of the selected drive

or pathname (or the parent of the current

directory if the [..] abrievation is

selected.

If a valid file name is selected from the directory list box,

the "Quick View" window will attempt to display a partial

contents of the file. Approximately the first 10,000 bytes of

the file are read into the internal view window; the percentage

indicator at the lower right of WinNav's window indicates the

approximate percentage of the total file read into memory --

files less that 10k in length should display 100% read.

In the Text, Snoop and WordStar modes the initial lines of a

text or ASCII files will be displayed in the view window, but

may not retain their proper formatting.

Executable and binary files shows text extracted from the non-

text file, however, this text will not necessarily be from con-

tiguous portions of the file, and may contain a certain amount

of garbage, i.e., characters appearing in the file but which

are not really words. While this unformated view mode may seem

like nonsense at times, the Snoop mode is excellent for reading

font types from *.fon files, as well as allowing you to read

sufficient text in certain wordprocessing files such as Windows

Write, Word, Word for Windows, WordPerfect, Ami/Ami Pro and

Lotus Manuscript document files to identify the files contents

-- thereafter you can launch the appropriate application for a

formatted view or editing session.

Files compressed in the *.ARC, *.PAK, *.LZH, *.LZS, *.ICE or

*.ZIP formats will have their internal file directories dis-

played in the view window.

Using "Quick Views" Extended Features

When the list directory is the active window or has the

"focus," the "Quick View" window displays the file as indi-

cated above. To access its extended features, the view

window must be given the focus; this is done by (1) pressing

the [Ctrl]+[ -> ] (control and right arrow key) combina-

tions, (2) selecting the "To View" option from the List

mode's "Window" menu's "Toggle" option, or (3) by clicking a

mouse on the "Quick View" window area.

When the view window gains the focus, the List mode menu bar

is replaced with the View mode menu bar, and the "List" mode

indicator on the upper right information bar changes to

"View." The user can now use the keyboard cursor keys or

mouse and scroll bars to move through the file being viewed,

and invoke various selections from the new menu bar.

The "Quick View" window may be toggled from standard to

Maximized (Zoom) modes by (1) repeatedly pressing the [F8]

function key while the view window has the current focus, or

(2) the "Window" pop-up menu's "Max View" option. In addi-

tion, the Max View (Zoom) mode can be invoked by pressing

the [F12] function key even when it does not have the

current focus, and subsequently restored to standard mode by

pressing the [F9] function key.

WinNav's "List" and "Quick View" windows may be switched

from standard Column mode to a split Rows screen mode by (1)

pressing the [F10] function key, or (2) the "Window" pop-up

menu's "Rows" option. To restore the standard Column mode

(1) press the [F9] function key or (2) select the "Columns"

option from the "Window" pop-up menu.

Using the "Quick View" Window as a "Quick Editor"

WinNav's "Quick View" window can also be used as a "Quick

Editor," while still protecting the file from any possibil-

ity of being modified. When viewing the file you are view-

ing a portion of the file read into memory and not the file

itself, and when you modify the file all modifications take

place in the view window only. Therefore, the user can

modify the view of the displayed file, and then use Windows

clipboard to perform various copy, move, paste and delete

functions; this allows text to be saved and retrieved

through the clipboard and to cut and pasted into any other

text processor (even a DOS wordprocessor) or application

such as a terminal program.

You can even use the "Edit" menu's "Delete All" feature to

completely erase the view windows contents, type in excess

of 20k of text, and then use the "Edit" menu's "Select All"

and "Cut" or "Copy options to move it to the clipboard for

use in another Windows or DOS application. Again, these

changes are performed exclusively in the memory allocated to

the viewer and will not modify the original disk file

itself.

Using External Viewers

The entire file may be viewed through any user configured

external viewer, list or browse utilities by (1) pressing

the [Ctrl]+[F6] or [Shift]+[F6] keys, or (2) by use of the

pop-up "File" menu's "Type" function, or the "View" menu's

"User Viewer 1" and User Viewer 2" options; another option

is through the use of the "File" menu's "Launch" and "Open"

selections.

The [Ctrl]+[F6] and [Shift]+[F6] function key combinations

will invoke the user designated Viewer 1 and Viewer 2,

respectively. For these functions to work properly and to

their full capabilities, the user is required to customize

the WINNAV.INI file as described in "Getting Started" sec-

tion of this manual.

The "Launch Panel" may also be invoked by double clicking on

the listed file's name. This allows the user to select any

application which has been pre-configured through use of the

"New" or "Update" listbox setup buttons, and to launch it

with the appended file name and preset parameters.

When the "Launch Panel" is invoked the currently selected

file becomes the default file displayed in the dialog pan-

el's "File" edit box window. WinNav will then check the

file's extension against those appearing in the user

configurable [Launch Extensions] section of the Windows'

WINNAV.INI file or, if it can find no match there, against

those appearing in the [extensions] section of the WIN.INI

file; if WinNav finds a match, it will automatically select

the appropriate appropriate application and parameters, and

set the "Primary Task" edit window box accordingly.

2.2.5. Launching a File

You may "launch," i.e., load and run, the currently selected

file, a single application or groups of multiple applications,

through WinNav's enhanced Launch, Open and Run facilities. Any

file, including Windows or MS-DOS applications or data files,

may be launched by one of the following options:

(1) Selecting the file with the cursor control keys and

then pressing return,

(2) Pointing to the file name and then double-clicking

the left mouse button,

(3) Selecting the file with either the cursor control

keys or mouse, and then chosing the File/Launch

pull down menu, with the [Alt]+[F] then [L] keys or

the mouse, or

(4) Selecting the file with either the cursor control

keys or mouse, and then pressing the [F7] key.

With respect to executable files, i.e., those having an *.EXE,

*.COM, *.BAT or *.PIF file extension, options (1) and (2) will

immediately load and run the application; options (3) and (4)

invoke the Launch dialog panel, which allows the user to enter

any desired parameters, e.g., the name of a data file.

The "File Open" command will immediately launch the associated

application, if any, and load the selected file, without

prompting for additional user input. Only WinNav's "File Open"

menu options will load and run a non-executable file automati-

cally, all other functions will invoke either the Launch or Run

dialog panels, which will allow the file's associated

application program to be verified or an alternative selected.

If a non-executable file is selected, and if that files exten-

sion appears in either the [Launch Extensions] section of the

WINNAV.INI file or the [extensions] section of the WIN.INI,

then the default Launch "Primary Task" window will display the

filespec of the application extracted from the INI file that

has been previously associated with that extension.

The "File Run" command is designed or initially configured to

run applications and generally ignores the selected file.

DOS Prompt

Exit

Open

Purpose: This command will allow any selected file to be

"opened" -- the associated application program

together with the selected file will be ran and

loaded. This feature, although much more

advanced, is similar to the features available

under the Windows File Manager and MS-DOS Execu-

tive applications, and provides the user with the

capability of immediately launching Windows and

DOS applications, utilities and even data files,

and a simple an intelligent way to invoke an all

but unlimited number of user specified applica-

tion programs.

In order to determine which application is asso-

ciated with the selected file, WinNav first

examines the [Launch Extensions] section of the

WINNAV.INI file, and, if no matching extension is

found, then examines the [extensions] section of

the WIN.INI file. If no matching extension is

found in either INI file, WinNav advises the

user, and then invokes the "Associate" dialog

function to allow the user to install the

required information in the selected files.

Note: This version of WinNav requires that the user

manually edit the [Run Buttons] section of the

WINNAV.INI file, in order to customize the but-

tons and their associated applications; this may

be done with the Windows Notepad utility, or any

other ASCII/ANSI "text" editor.

See, the "Associate" function and installation

sections of this manual.

Launch ...

Purpose: This command will allow any selected file, appli-

cation or multiple applications to be "launched"

-- it replaces or combines the run, load,

associate and group options available under the

Windows Program Manager, File Manager and MS-DOS

Executive, with more advanced options. It can

provide the user with the capability of launching

Windows and DOS applications, utilities and even

data files, and a simple an intelligent way to

invoke an all but unlimited number of user speci-

fied application programs.

Prior to actually invoking the application, or a

data file and an application, the Launch dialog

panel will appear, prompting the user to accept

the proposed default application (provided one

has been previously "associated" with the current

file type), to select a group or task from the

listbox menu, or to manually type the desired

information in the applicable edit window.

In addition, the Launch Panel provides an

Extended Command edit window which allows the

user to invoke multiple applications or command

line tokens at the same time. Each command line

token or application is required to be separated

by a comma "," in order to be properly processed

by WinNav.

Format:

calc.exe, cardfile.exe, winword.exe

Both the Primary and Extended Commands allow the

user to select how the command group will be

displayed, i.e., in a window, iconic or full

screen, whether the selected file should be

appended to the primary application, whether Win-

Nav should be reduced to an icon upon completion

of the launch or whether the application windows

should be tiled.

The "Group/Task Menu" listbox can be configured

through the use of the "New," "Update" or "Re-

move" keys, and can support nested submenus up to

five levels deep. The current menu or level is

displayed immediately above the listbox. To move

down a level simply double-click the mouse or

press the [Enter] key on the desired listing; to

move back up a level, press the [Esc] key.

Double-clicking or pressing [Enter] on a non-menu

item will immediately launch that application

group. A menu or level listing is identified by

a "..." in the "Primary Task" edit window.

Note: In this release of WinNav, only the first for

windowed applications will be tilled, if that

option is selected.

Also, refer to sections on associating and

launching files for additional information.

Shortcut: [F7]

Run ...

The "File" menu "Run" command allows the immediately start

an application program, generally without loading the

selected file. This command is similar to other "Run" func-

tions of various Windows application in that it allows the

user to manually type in any desired application program and

parameters. However, it also provides several advanced

functions, such as the drive or directory to log to prior to

invoking the application program, allowing selection as to

how the application should be displayed, i.e., in a window,

as an icon or full screen, whether WinNav is to be minimized

or the window display tiled.

The Run dialog panel also provides twelve user definable

application push buttons, to speed invocation of commonly

used application programs. When the desired push button is

selected, the specified application is run; all other param-

eters or Run panel options are ignored, and WinNav only

invokes the options that the user has defined in the [Run

Buttons] section of the WINNAV.INI file.

Purpose: This command will type or list a document file in

a window in a manner similar to the DODS "TYPE"

command.

THis command allows the user to scroll through

text files of unlimited length. All features

such as pause, resume or cancel can be invoked by

the menu options; in addition, the [Alt] or

[Spacebar] keys may be pressed to toggle the

scroll on and off, as well as double-clicking the

mouse button on the view window.

Warning: In this release of WinNav, the command runs an

external Windows list utility, WINLST.EXE, which

is provided with WinNav. WinType is actually an

application still in the early stages of develop-

ment, and as a result has not been extensively

"beta" tested.

As Windows 3.0 is much more touchy than Windows

2.1, and can be more tempremental on some

machines than others, WinType should be used

sparingly and with caution, until you can deter-

mine its suitability on your own equipment. An

internal version of a similar viewer should be

incorporated in one of the next few releases of

WinNav.

Associate ...

Purpose: This command is an advanced version of the Win-

dows File Manager and MS-DOS Executive's associ-

ate capabilities. It is used to "associate" a

certain file type as identified with its file

extensions, with a default application program.

It offers advanced capabilities such as assigning

log directories, window size style, whether Win-

Nav should be minimized, etc. This information

is saved to the [Launch Extensions] section of

the WINNAV.INI file, and the more traditional

"associate" information is also saved to the

[extensions] section of the WIN.INI file.

The information assigned and saved by "Associate"

is used by both the "File Open" and "File Launch"

options of WinNav, in the latter the associated

In addition its advanced capabilities provides

"Alias Directories" and multiple extension selec-

tions from various listboxes, as well as the

means of including or excluding hidden, system,

read only files and directories from the list

window.

The "Alias DIrectory" feature provides the user

with a menans of referencing vany directory and

multiple filespecs within directories in a less

cryptic manner than typing their archaic DOS tree

names.

You can also change drives by backing up the

directory list tree with the [LEFT ARROW] key, or

by pressing the [END] key, which will move to the

to the directory and drive area of the List

Window, selecting the applicable drive (or direc-

tory) and pressing [ENTER].

THE DISTRIBUTION DISKS

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

III. GETTING STARTED

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

3.1. THE DISTRIBUTION DISKS

The unregistered version of WinNav is originally distributed in

the form of a self extracting archive file (although it may have

been converted by others to an ARC, ZIP, PAK or LZH compressed

file format). The distribution file should contain the following

files:

WINNAV.EXE The Windows Navigator (WinNav) application

program.

WINNAV.INI A sample Windows Navigator (WinNav) informa-

tion and configuration data file. You should

always review this file as it may contain

configuration information that has changed

since the last update of the users' guide.

registering or licensing this release of Win-

Nav (this document is also contained in an

appendix to the users guide).

TYPEDOCS.BAT This batch file will use the DOS copy command

to output WinNav User's Guide (WINNAV.DOC) to

your printer.

WINNAV.DOC WinNav's User's Guide (this guide may be in

multiple files identified as WINNAV##.DOC).

The disk sets which may be purchased from the author consist of

the "Program Disk," which contains each of the aforementioned

files and any supplemental information files which may be added

from time-to-time, and a "Utility Disk," which contains an

assortment of unregistered copies of various shareware applica-

tions that are supported by or that may be used in conjunction

with WinNav.

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

GETTING STARTED -- Page 49

WHAT YOU NEED

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The applications contained on the "Utility Disk" are either pub-

lic domain or shareware, and may be distributed by you in accor-

dance with the terms and conditions specified by their respective

authors; please keep in mind that if you continue to use

shareware applications, you must register or license it directly

with its author (by registering WinNav, you have not aquired a

license to any of the shareware applications contained on the

"Utility Disk"). Generally, these same utilities may be down-

loaded by modem from most local BBS systems, Compuserve and

GEnie, or are distributed on disks by various public software

library services.

Please do not distribute any programs are files contained on the

"Program Disk" as they are only for your personal use; the only

exception to this is the unregistered archived copy of WinNav,

which may be provided on either the "Program Diak" or "Utility

Disk" as space is available. Any distribution contrary to the

foregoing limitations is prohibited by the respective authors and

may be actionable under various local and federal laws.

3.2. WHAT YOU NEED

To use WinNav, you need the following:

Microsoft Windows (version 3.0 or later)

MS-DOS/PC-DOS (version 3.0 or a later version required by

your version of Microsoft Windows)

A pointing device, e.g., mouse, is recommended

A Microsoft Windows supported graphics adapter card (EGA or

VGA is highly recommended)

In addition you will need the application and utility programs

specified in "Appendix D" as well as the standard DOS and Windows

applications you normally use.

DEFAULT INSTALLATION

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

3.3. DEFAULT INSTALLATION

A default version of WinNav is easily installed, by copying the

files WINNAV.EXE and WINNAV.INI to your Windows directory; how-

ever, many of its features will not be fully functional, until

you reconfigure it for your own system and to fully support all

of your Windows and DOS applications.

The instructions in this section are primarily provided for user

customization.

Generally, WinNav will attempt to use internal defaults for those

settings which do not appear in the either the sample WINNAV.INI

file or your current WIN.INI file; however, these defaults may

rely on certain PIF files and your systems DOS environment set-

tings, and may not function properly if certain settings have

been omitted. For example, all external applications or their

respective PIF files must be located in a directory accessible by

through the DOS "path=" setting.

3.4. CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

The WINNAV.INI is a configuration file that is used by both Win-

Nav. It contains a series of sections, keywords and settings,

similar to those in the WIN.INI file, that generally appear in

the following format:

[section1 name]

keyword1=setting1, setting2, setting3 ...

keyword2=setting1, setting2, setting3 ...

[section2 name]

keyword1=setting1, setting2, setting3 ...

keyword2=setting1, setting2, setting3 ...

The section name appears in brackets, and each keyword begins on

a new line and is followed by an equal (=) sign and the appli-

cable setting. Multiple settings are often used, and are gener-

ally (but not always) separated by a comma and a space.

CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

3.4.1. Editing the "WINNAV.INI" File

Although most available user configurable features can be added

or updated from within WinNav, you may wish to make changes

directly to your WINNAV.INI file; this can be done with any

ASCII text file editor, e.g., Windows' Notepad.

To change WINNAV.INI settings directly, follow these steps:

1. Open WINNAV.INI from your text editor in an ASCII or

nondocument mode.

2. Locate the section name, keyword or settings you want

to change.

3. Edit the section name, keyword or settings.

4. Save your changes to the WINNAV.INI file.

5. Quit (generally you do not need to reload Windows but

may need to reload WinNav).

Remember that changes you make to WINNAV.INI generally, but not

always, take effect when the appropriate WinNav feature is

invoked; however some features may require you to follow the

better practice of reloading WinNav after you've made changes

to the INI files.

For more information on editing and using INI files, please

refer to your Microsoft Window's User Guide.

3.4.2. Sections, Keywords and Settings

WinNav currently makes use of the following WINNAV.INI sections

and keywords (in addition it uses the WIN.INI [extensions] sec-

tion for supplemental information). In addition, you should

check the sample WIN.INI file which may include some changes

since the last revision of this manual.

3.4.3. The [WinNav] Section

The [WinNav] section of the WINNAV.INI file is used to install

many of the custom user features available under WinNav. The

keywords "userviewer1", "userviewer2" and "utlarc" are the only

keywords whose options must be manually installed by a user

using a text editor; all other keywords are either installed

automatically by or from within the WinNav application.

Keyword: userviewer1

Purpose: The "userviewer1=" keyword allows the user to

designate the external application program that

is to be invoked by the "View" menu "User Viewer

1" option, for viewing the current selection.

Syntax: userviewer1=

Where "" is the full DOS drive,

path, file name and extension for the application

to be invoked.

Example: userviewer1=c:\win386\browser.exe

Purpose: The "userviewer2=" keyword allows the user to

designate the external application program that

is to be invoked by the "View" menu "User Viewer

2" option, for viewing the current selection.

Syntax: userviewer1=

Where "" is the full DOS drive,

path, file name and extension for the application

to be invoked.

Example: userviewer1=c:\file\list.com

Default: None.

Keyword: utlarc

Purpose: The "utlarc=" keyword allows the user to desig-

nate an alternate external application program

that is to be invoked for unpacking files which

have a "ARC" extension. For example, the user

may prefer to use PKXARC.COM rather than ARC.EXE.

Syntax: utlarc=

Where "" is the full DOS drive,

path, file name and extension for the application

to be invoked.

Examples: utlarc=c:\win386\pif\pkxarc.pif

CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

Default: If WinNav cannot find the "utlarc=" keyword in

your WINNAV.INI file, it will search for and

launch the default "ARC.EXE" application.

Warning/ WinNav presently assumes the alternate applica-

Tip: tion will be either ARC or PKXARC, and looks for

the letters "pk" in the application specified in

the "utilarc=" setting to determine the appli-

cable Unpack dialog panel to invoke. Therefore,

other alternate applications must conform to the

command and options syntax of either SEA's ARC or

PKXARC to work with the applicable dialog panel,

and, if the PKXARC dialog panel is to be used,

the alternate application must contain the let-

ters "pk" in its file name. For example, NoGate

Consulting's PAK.EXE, could be configured to

emulate PKXARC's command and options sytax, and

be invoked by using an alias PIF file named

"PKXARC.PIF."

Keywords: User and License [Internal]

Purpose: These Keywords and their respective settings are

created and updated by WinNav, as a result of a

user providing the appropriate registration

information for his or her copy of WinNav at the

applicable prompts.

If a copy of WinNav has been duly registered,

each time it is reloaded, it will immediately run

the application without the startup and closing

prompts that appear in unregistered evaluation

copies.

Warning: Users of unregistered evaluation copies of WinNav

should not attempt to manually edit this informa-

Keywords: Winx, Winy, Winw and Winh [Internal]

Purpose: These Keywords and their respective settings are

automatically created and updated by WinNav, and

need not be modified by the user. They represent

the coordinates of WinNav's parent window; they

are read when WinNav is first invoked, and are

updated or saved upon exiting WinNav and respond-

ing "Yes" to the save current display query.

Each time WinNav is reloaded, it will size its

parent window to the coordinates last used when

it was previously run.

Tip: When WinNav is invoked for the first time, size

its parent window, with either the system menu

"Size" command or a mouse, and then exit the

application; this will save the current coordi-

nates of the parent window. Then each time the

application is invoked it will automatically size

itself to these coordinates.

Keyword: Split, Zoom and ShowWin [Internal]

Purpose: These Keywords and their settings are automati-

cally created and updated by WinNav, and need not

be modified by the user. The setting stores

information as to whether WinNav's parent window

was in the Column, Row, Maximize List or Maximize

View modes or if WinNav was displayed as an icon,

in a window or full screen when it was last

exited; the setting is read when WinNav is first

invoked, and are updated or saved upon exiting

WinNav and responding "Yes" to the save current

display query.

Each time WinNav is reloaded, it will automati-

cally select the display and modes based on those

in effect when it was last used or previously

run.

Tip: Before exiting WinNav, select the desired display

and mode for the parent and child windows; then

respond "Yes" to the save display on exit query,

this will save the current display position,

style and mode of both the parent and child

windows. Then each time the application is

invoked it will use the saved mode as its

default.

Shortcut: [F10] invokes the split Row screen mode.

[F 9] restores the standard Column screen mode.

3.4.4. The [Pack] Section

The [Pack] section of the WINNAV.INI file is used to install

many of the Pack and Unpack features available under WinNav.

Keyword: unpackto

Purpose: The "unpackto=" keyword allows the user to desig-

nate the drive and directory where archived files

are to be unpacked. This setting will be

displayed as the default when any of the unpack

dialog panels are first displayed.

Syntax: unpackto=

Where "" is a valid system drive, and

"" is the full qualified directory name.

The path name must end with a backslash ("\").

Examples: unpackto=c:\unpack\

Default: None.

Purpose: The "packto=" keyword allows the user to desig-

nate the drive and directory where archived files

are to be stored upon packing.

Syntax: packto=

Where "" is a valid system drive, and

"" is the full qualified directory name.

The path name must end with a backslash ("\").

Examples: packto=c:\archive\

Default: None.

3.4.5. The [Run Buttons] Section

There are twelve user configurable "Run" buttons which appear

in two rows on the "Run" dailog panel. On the top row from the

left the button keywords are LB1, LB2, LB3, LB4, LB5 and LB6;

the bottom row of button keywords are LB7, LB8, LB9, LB10, LB11

and LB12, again from left to right.

Each button's settings allow the user to designate a brief

title for the application to be displayed within the button,

the full path and file name for the application to be invoked,

and a decimal value which tells WinNav to include or ignore the

parameter line when launching the application (a "0" to ignore

the displayed parameter line or a "1" to include it).

The buttons, if not configured by the user, will contain a

selection of default Microsoft Windows applications. Those

applications, such as NOTEPAD.EXE and PBRUSH.EXE, which accept

a commandline parameter, have been configured to ignore the

selected file, i.e., to run the application without an appended

file name; those that do not, such as CLOCK.EXE and CALC.EXE,

also will ignore any parameter lines.

CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The following explains how to configure the keyword options of

the [Run Buttons] section of the WINNAV.INI file. Additional

or updated configuration information is contained in the sample

WINNAV.INI file and Appendix C, of this manual.

Keyword: LB# (LB1 through LB12)

Purpose: The "LB#=" keyword allows the user to customize

an application push button on the Run dialog

panel, so that it will invoke an application

other than the default.

Syntax: LB1=, ,

LB2=, ,

LB3=, ,

LB4=, ,

LB5=, ,

LB6=, ,

LB7=, ,

LB8=, ,

LB9=, ,

LB10=, ,

LB11=, ,

LB12=, ,

Where "" is the text that should appear

in the push button, and may include an "&" before

any character to designate an Alt-Key combination

to be as a shortcut. Note that certain Alt-Key

combinations are used by the Run dialog panel and

should not be duplicated by the control buttons.

The "" is the full DOS drive, path,

file name and extension for the application to be

invoked.

The "" is a decimal number "0" or "1"

which tells the Run panel whether or not the

dialog's parameter line is to be appended to the

launched application's commandline. If the

parameter is to be appended the value is "1,"

otherwise, it should be set to "0." Generally,

you may set the value to "1" if an application

can accept and load file name's specified in the

commandline; however, this may duplicate the

functions provided in the Launch panel.

Example: LB1=E&xcel, c:\excel\excel.exe, 1

This will run Microsoft Excel, and load the

worksheet file, if any, specified in the Run

panel parameters window.

LB1 If WinNav cannot find the "LB1=" keyword in your

Default: WINNAV.INI file, the first push button will

default to "1 Calculator." When this button is

used, WinNav will search the current directory,

the Windows directory and the DOS environment

string in the parameters window will be ignored.

LB2 If WinNav cannot find the "LB2=" keyword in your

Default: WINNAV.INI file, the first push button will con-

tain the text "2 Calendar." When this button is

used, WinNav will search the current and Windows

directories and the DOS environment "path=" for

the "CALENDAR.EXE" application. Any text string

in the parameters window will be ignored.

LB3 If WinNav cannot find the "LB3=" keyword in your

string in the parameters window will be ignored.

3.4.6. The [Launch Main Menu] and User SubMenu Sections

The settings in the [Launch Main Menu] section of the WIN-

NAV.INI file contain information that is required to launch a

Windows or DOS application from the "Group/Task Menu" listbox

of the "Launch" dialog panel. Due to the complex nature of

these settings, you should add, modify or delete all list menus

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

GETTING STARTED -- Page 63

CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

and items only from within the Launch panel, using the "New,"

"Update" and "Remove" push buttons which invoke the Launch

setup panel.

Note that submenus in this version of WinNav may be nested to

only the fifth level.

Default: None.

Shortcut: You may use the "New," "Update" and "Remove" push

buttons, in conjunction with the invoked Setup

panel, to add, modify or delete the entries appear-

ing in the "Group/Task Menu" listbox.

The "Group/Task Menu" list will be updated immedi-

ately as a result of any addition, update or dele-

tion; you do not have to exit the Launch panel or

reload Windows in order for WinNav to detect these

changes in the WINNAV.INI file.

Tips: When a character key is pressed and the "Group/Task

Menu" window has the current focus, the current

selection bar of the list box will scroll to the

next task title that begins with the character of

the key pressed. Therefore, task titles should use

different first letters whenever possible. In order

to group all submenus in one location, you may

precede their titl with a common character such as a

perio "." or a right bracket ">", etc.

3.4.7. The [Launch Extensions] Section

WinNav's [Launch Extensions] section of the WINNAV.INI file is

more complex than the Window's [extensions] section, and gener-

ally should not be manually edited; generally, all additions,

modifications or deletions should be made through the "File"

menu "Associate" option panel. This section is used by the

"File Open" and "File Launch" selections to determine the

default application or groups of applications to associate with

a specific file type or extension.

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

GETTING STARTED -- Page 64

CUSTOMIZING THE "WINNAV.INI" FILE

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

When any file is selected and then the "File Open" or "File

Launch" functions are invoked, WinNav compares its file exten-

sion with those appearing as keywords in the [Launch Exten-

sions] section of the WINNAV.INI file (or if no match is found,

then the WIN.INI [extensions] section); if it locates a match

it will display the WINNAV.INI application setting for that

file extension as the default application of the "Launch Panel"

or will immediately invoke the associated application and load

the selected file if the "File Open" option was selected.

If the user invoked the "File Launch" panel, he or she is then

given the opportunity to load the file into either the default

application or to select another application for the task.

This offers another significant advantage over the File Manager

or MS-DOS Executive associate functions and similar functions

in other file managers, in that it does not require the user to

elect to include in the [extension] section of the WINNAV.INI

file either an application program, e.g., an editor such as

Notepad, or a viewer application. Now the [extensions] section

can be used exclusively for applications that manipulate data

files, and the [View Extensions] section for launching external

view only applications (which generally load significantly

faster than databases, wordprocessors, etc.).

Furthermore, designating associated extensions will not limit

the user to a single application program, e.g., selecting a

file with the *.TXT extension might display a default viewer or

editor application, but the user is given the opportunity to

change this default automatically via the Launch panel's

"Group/Task Menu" or manually through the primary task edit

window. Thus, common file extensions may be used by more than

one application.

As the [Launch Extensions] settings was originally patterned

after the Windows' [extensions] section, and as the [exten-

sions] setting of the WIN.INI file may also be used by the

"File" menu's "Open" and "Launch" selections, it may be helpful

to also refer to the Microsoft Window's User Guide for more

information on configuring settings in this section of the WIN-

NAV.INI file. Also review the sample WINNAV.INI and the appen-

dix of this users' guide for more configuration information and

examples.

3.4.8. The Windows' [extensions] Section

WinNav also makes use of the settings in the Windows' [exten-

sions] section of the WIN.INI file, if it does not find a match

in the WINNAV.INI files [Launch Extensions] section.

When a non-executable, e.g., data file, is selected to be

launched, WinNav may also compare its file extension with those

appearing as keywords in the [extensions] section of the

WIN.INI file; if it locates a match it will display the WIN.INI

application setting for that file extension as the default pri-

mary task in the Launch Panel. The user is then given the

opportunity to load the file into either the default

application or to select another application for the task.

Please refer to your Microsoft Window's User Guide for more

information on configuring settings in this section of the

WIN.INI file.

3.5. CREATING PIF FILES FOR DOS APPLICATIONS

WinNav can be used with both Windows and DOS applications; in

fact this is the main basis for developing this application -- to

integrate the DOS operating system and applications with the Win-

dows environment.

The internally defined standard DOS applications (see, Appendix

D) used by WinNav are invoked by launching a PIF file. It

should be noted that WinNav looks for *.EXE or *.COM extension,

WIndows first checks for a *.PIF file.

When installing your own DOS application, be sure that, if it

requires more than nominal memory and is not located within your

The Navigator [0.50 09/30/90] It's FlashPoint WindowWare!

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

GETTING STARTED -- Page 66

DOS ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

DOS environment path, a PIF file for the application is created.

Refer to this PIF file when invoking the application and not to

the executable *.COM or *.EXE file itself.

Suggested or required PIF file names for many of the internally

defined functions such as Pack and Unpack options are set forth

in Appendix D, of this manual.

Also refer to the Microsoft Windows User's Guide, for information

on using the PIF Editor and properly configuring your PIF file.

3.6. DOS ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS

In Windows, just as in DOS, your DOS environment settings are

important. If an application is not found in the default or

Windows directories, Windows will search the "Path=" setting of

your environment setting to determine additional directories and

drives to search.

Furthermore, many DOS applications such as PKZIP.EXE, PKUN-

ZIP.EXE, LHARC.EXE and ARC.EXE rely on the DOS environment set-

tings when run from Windows, just as they do when run from DOS.

Therefore, the applicable users' manuals should be referred to,

in order to properly setup the DOS environment variables for each

application. Generally, if the application has been properly set

up to run outside of Windows, it will run properly within Windows

and from WinNav's dialog panels -- that is if the PIF files have

also been properly configured.

IV. DISTRIBUTION, REGISTRATION AND LICENSING

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

WinNav is copyright and has been released for evaluation pur-

poses; it may be distributed as "Development-Ware" through normal

shareware channels.

4.1. PERMISSIBLE DISTRIBUTION

To ensure future development and support of WinNav, you are

encouraged to distribute unregistered, evaluation copies to oth-

ers.

Operators of electronic bulletin boards (Sysops) are encouraged

to post WinNav for downloading by their users.

WinNav may be uploaded to and downloaded from commercial systems

such as CompuServe, the Source, and BIX, so long as the only

charge paid by the subscriber is for on-line time and there is no

charge for the product itself. Those copying, sharing, and/or

electronically transmitting this product are required not to

delete or modify the copyright notice and restrictive notices

from the program or documentation; anyone doing so may be subject

to civil damages and criminal prosecution.

If you are passing WinNav on to others, uploading it to a bulle-

tin board system, or including it in a users group library, do

not separate the files contained in the packed ARC, ZIP or LZH

file -- pass the entire packed file on to the intended party.

This ensures that those who receive the product will have all the

correct configuration utilities and documentation necessary to

get WinNav up and running quickly. A listing of what files you

should have and the purpose of each is listed later in this man-

ual.

WinNav documentation may not be modified, nor may be distributed

separate from the application program. In addition, the distri-

bution documentation may not be printed, copied or otherwise

reproduced, by any means, without the written permission of the

author and copyright holders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, commercial vendors and distrib-

utors of "public domain" or user-supported software libraries

must obtain written permission to distribute copies of WinNav.

No one may use WinNav as a promotion for any commercial venture

or as an enticement for the user to pay for any program, product,

or service unless they have received the express written permis-

sion of the program's author.

In order to distribute WinNav, a dealer or disk vendor must com-

ply with the following conditions:

(1) You must obtain written permission from Richard S.

Patterson to distribute WinNav. If you receive no

reply, write again; my silence does not constitute

permission, and you may not distribute "pending"

receipt of permission.

(2) A maximum disk fee as set by Richard S. Patterson in

the vendor contract must not be exceeded. WinNav may

not be included on any disk sold for more than this

maximum, including CD-ROM or optical disks, without

express written permission from Richard S. Patterson.

(3) Vendors may not modify or delete any files on the

disk. Vendors may add a "GO" program, and/or a

reasonable number of small text files designed to

assist or provide a service to the user, but these

added files must be easily identifiable and end-users

must be allowed to delete the added files.

(4) Vendors must make a reasonable effort to distribute

only the most recent versions of WinNav. All vendors

who have requested and received written permission to

distribute WinNav will be notified of updates as they

are released.

(3) No charge, other than a media and handling charge not

to exceed $10.00, excluding actual postage, is made.

(4) Users of the program must purchase a Registered

User's License should they decide to use this prod-

uct.

One license per usable copy of WinNav is required, and the pro-

gram may not be used beyond a thirty (30) evaluation period

without registration. A single archive or backup copy is not

considered a "usable copy" for evaluation or registration pur-

poses.

Please note that if you purchased a disk containing this software

from a public domain/shareware software distributor you have paid

the media and handling charges as permitted above. This is not a

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- ----------

4.6. PURCHASE ORDERS AN 111p151b D BILLING

Purchase orders are subject to acceptance, and may require an

advance deposit on large orders. Generally, purchase orders are

rejected of orders less than $250.00 -- even if they are from a

major national corporation or governmental agency; we are sorry,

but we cannot justify spending hours reading the often cryptic

language of multipage purchase orders for relatively small order

or single registrations.

Furthermore, purchase orders will not be accepted if they purport

to obligate us to your company's terms and conditions which are

contrary to those of our licensing agreements or disclaimer of

warranties.

4.7. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS

We recognizes the difficulties our international customers face

in presenting payment for our products. These difficulties

include excessive fees charged for international money orders,

postal delays and currency conversion problems of various types.

However, as we are unable to accept payment via MasterCard (Euro-

Card) or Visa at this time, we can only accept international

money orders or travelers checks payable in U. S. Dollars; you

must perform any necessary currency conversions on your end of

the transaction, and take any necessary steps to eliminate the

possibility of the loss of the funds by the postal services.

It is strongly recommended that international orders be paid by

Postal Money Orders, as these appear to be honored by most U.S.

post offices, or by drafts drawn on U.S. banks with preprinted

U.S. bank routing numbers.

An additional charge to cover postal fees and handling is

required on all international orders. All materials will be

mailed via airmail, whenever possible, thus avoiding many unnec-

essary delays. The additional fees as of the date of this manual

are as follows:

4.8. REGISTERED USER SUPPORT AND FEEDBACK

Registered users who do contribute will be notified when updates

and new products are available. Anyone wishing to offer advice

and suggestions are most welcome to do so.

Those of you who have registered your copy of WinNav, and wish to

receive an updated copy of the latest shareware version, can

always obtain a registered copy by mail; include the current disk

Optionally, you may include two (2) 5 1/4" or 3 1/2" diskettes

for each set ordered, together with a self-addressed stamped dis-

kette mailer (with adequate postage to cover the cost of each of

two (2) disk sets requested), plus $5.00 to cover handling, and I

will copy and send you the latest version of WinNav.

If there have not been any significant updates made since your

version, I will wait until the next release of WinNav to send

your update (if no updates are expected to be available in the

following 60 day period your payment and/or media will be

returned to you).

If you do have a question, a bug report, or suggestions for

future versions, please drop me a note, and include:

(1) A self addressed stamped envelope (if a reply is

required);

OTHER MATTERS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

VI. APPENDIX A

-------- ----- ------ ----- ----- --------- ----- --------

6.1. OTHER MATTERS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS

Again, WinNav is "Development-Ware" and is still evolving. Gen-

erally, no hidden features are implemented by registration that

are unimplemented in a current unregistered release, although

upon registration you may disable the display of the opening or

exit screens (which, obviously, is a plea to support this appli-

cation by registration should you decide to use it, but hopefully

aren't as demanding or obtrusive as some other popular Windows

applications which even contain third-party advertisements).

Many features are, however, currently under development, and many

more are finding its way on to an ever growing "wish list" for

enhancements.

Other future releases, it is hoped, will gradually reduce Win-

Nav's reliance on external DOS applications and utilities such as

XCopy, and certainly file and directory move and other file

management features will be added.

Other features, which have not yet been suggested or even thought

of, will certainly find their way into the Windows environment

and WinNav itself, provided the interest and support of each of

WinNav's users continues.

Please use the following multipage form for registration and all

Note that you can locate the version or release number of your

evaluation copy of The Navigator on both the sign-on display, and

on the "About" dialog display that can be accessed from the

"File" pull down menu bar. If you fail to include the version

number of your copy, we must assume that it is the same as the

number and date appearing in the footer at the bottom of each

The following registration fees and forms supersede previous fees

and charges, and are effective as of the date of this release.

Registered user's will be provided with an authorization code,

that appear when The Navigator is run, as well as being provided

with announcements of future updates and releases. These autori-

zation codes are personal and unique, and may not be disclosed or

9.2. ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS AND UTILITIES

Although the following applications are not required nor inter-

nally defined by WinNav, they can be used to fully exploit its

Launch and View Panels' capabilities. They are comprised of many

of the most popular and widely distributed public domain and

shareware DOS and Windows applications that are available today.

These applications are just a sampling of the utilities that can

be invoked by WinNav, and should not be considered to be a recom-

mendation or endorsement, nor should it be considered as an all

inclusive list of available public domain and shareware

applications suitable for use by any particular user.

Each of the standard DOS applications, indicated by an asterisk

("*") next to its name, should be loaded by WinNav's Launch or

View functions invocation of their respective PIF files; gener-

ally, the file name of the PIF file should be the same as that of

the executable program. The Windows applications do not require

PIF files, and may be invoked by directly calling the applica-

tion's file name and *.EXE extension.

vides extensive options, filters,

search and other facilities too

numerous to describe.

DBB.EXE * 1.2 DataBase Browser an excellent and

relatively new list utility that

displays formatted fields and

records

stored in the dBase *.DBF file

format.

WP5LOOK.EXE * 1.0 Another excellent list utility

that displays WordPerfect for-

matted document files, and pro-

vides its own internal search

capabilities.

BROWSER.EXE 3.0 and 3.2 A Windows list utility that pro-

vides fine search, filter, format

and other capabilities -- its only

draw back is that it cannot load

large files as the entire file is

held in memory.

VIEW.EXE 2.0 demo A Windows text management applica-

tion that provides large file

viewer support, configurable

screen, print and other functions

-- its only draw backs are that it

will not allow a file to be loaded

as a command line parameter, and

will crash if an executable file

is loaded for viewing.

GCP.EXE 4.20SW An excellent Windows graphic

(f/k/a (also 4.10) viewer, manipulation and file con-

EASEL.EXE) version utility, which supports

Windows Paint (Old and New MSP),

Bitmap, Cursor and Icon, MacPaint

9.3. HOW TO OBTAIN APPLICATIONS AND UTILITIES

Many of the foregoing are shareware as well as public domain

applications. These applications, like Windows Navigator, may be

obtained from such sources as local bulletin board systems

(BBS's), friends, clubs and user groups, and even mail order pub-

lic domain distributions -- one such software library is men-

tioned earlier in this manual.

In addition, most of these are distributed (at least for a lim-

ited time), to registered users who purchase a disk copy of Win-

Nav; they are included free of charge on a separate Utility Disk,

together with any original on-disk documentation and other

information, distributed with WinNav's registered user disk.

Note, however, that shareware authors expect or at least hope to

get paid for their investment of time and labor in the develop-

ment of a particular application; "payment" generally means

direct payment to the author, and not to any third party or

distributor.

When you register WinNav, you have not paid for or obtained any

license to use any of the applications which might be contained

on the Utility Disk; these utilities change from time to time,

and are merely provided as a convenient way for you to sample

additional applications that are made available through their

respective authors.

Should any of these utilities be of use to you and wish to con-

tinue to use them, then you must comply with the license terms

and conditions and the registration instructions that are

included with each individual application. Furthermore, these

utilities are distributed "AS IS" and without any warranty what-

soever. Also note that while it is hoped that the utilities on

the whole represent the most current versions presently being

distributed by the author, more current versions may be available

through other sources.

Hopefully, from time to time, other shareware authors and regis-

tered users of WinNav, will pass on copies of WinNav's demo pro-

gram (not the registered copy please) to others, or will forward

new versions of their own utilities, viewers or other shareware

and public domain applications to us for review. If they are

found to be compatible with or otherwise complement the use of

WinNav, we in turn, will attempt to make them available to our

own registered users for their review.
