-
- #1503█ Are you undecided if you should install Windows 95 or you
- #1503█ have already installed it?
-
- #0003How would you like a file manager which provides the comfort
- of long filenames in Windows 95 but which can be used as fast
- as a DOS program; a file manager which has the Windows 95
- Start Menu integrated but which still runs in a DOS box.
-
- #1503█ You are surfing the Net or visiting BBSs?
-
- #0003In this case a file manager which automatically displays the
- "file_id.diz" info files in archives is made for you. You
- need a file manager which treats archives like subdirectories
- and which supports the four most important archiver programs
- (ARJ, PkZip, LHArc, and RAR). Your file manager has to allow
- you to view and modify files directly in archives. An
- intergrated UUencoder/decoder would be very helpful when
- sending data through the Internet.
-
- #1503█ You have to do much file organisation and you need fast
- #1503█ and solid file management functions?
-
- #0003We have for you a file manager which provides time
- estimations during the copying of files, which calculates
- the size of subdirectories in the background, which provides
- a skilled FileFind and which searches for all necessary
- archiver programs and installed application by itself.
-
- #1503█ Security has the highest priority for you?
-
- #0003Your file manager should keep a logfile, it should warn you
- if programs residently stay in the memory, if you want it it
- should delete files irrevocably so that they cannot be
- restored. A display of remaining laptop battery energy can
- revent bad surprises.
-
- #1503█ Or do you just need a reliable file manager?
-
- #0003For you we have developed UFO 96, the DOS file manager which
- supports
- Windows 95. The change to UFO 96 is easy; you will regain
- standards in UFO 96 to which you are used to from other
- products.
-
- #1503█ Additional functions
-
- #0003SAA concurring multifile editor, System info tool ("PC
- Equipment"), extensive Online Help, Drag & Drop, Display of
- file infos at HTML, WAV, GIF, PCX, BMP, MOD, and S3M-files.
-
- #1503█ Support
-
- #0003Via Fax, CompuServe mail, Internet E-Mail, FidoNet, and
- numerous support BBSs.
