- Last Updated November 1992
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
-
- Korenthal Associates (KA) has been producing top quality software
- since 1984. From the beginning, our programs were acclaimed by the
- computer press, starting with the Webster's New World family of
- spelling checkers, thesauri, and word processors, which won the
- coveted PC Magazine Editor's Choice and Best of 1985 awards, all the
- way up to the current day, when Bill Machrone of PC Magazine called
- 4Print "way cool", and PC/Computing picked it as one of their Ten Top
- Shareware Picks.
-
- But let it never be said we rest on our laurels. We're still hard at
- work, striving to bring you some of the most innovative and useful
- programming and creativity tools on the market. Here are our current
- product offerings as of the date of this document. And stay tuned,
- there's more good stuff on the way!

- 4Print (with 4Book)
-
- The Paper-Saving and Booklet-Printing Utility
- For Your LaserJet or DeskJet (or compatible)
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- 4Print prints two or three fully readable pages of text on each sheet
- of paper using your LaserJet's or DeskJet's landscape printing capa-
- bility. Even without a duplex printer, 4Print can print on both sides
- of the page, yielding four, six, or even more pages of text on each
- sheet!
-
- 4Print is perfect for program listings and documentation, and its
- single-column mode is great for wide spreadsheets and database
- reports! And not only does 4Print's reduced paper consumption mean
- lower paper costs and less shelf space taken up for storing printouts,
- it's also good for the ecology!
-
- New with version 4.1 of 4Print is the companion utility 4Book, which
- makes it easy to produce handsome booklets right out of your laser
- printer. Booklets can be customized in dozens of ways, including
- cover styles, large title fonts, boilerplate text, and even random
- quotes that print out differently each time the booklet is printed.
-
- Other 4.1 features include printing 1-4 columns of text across,
- variable number of lines per page, reverse-order printing to eliminate
- the need for paper shuffling, automatic line numbering, compression of
- excess blank lines and page breaks, intelligent word wrap, and support
-

- PhDbase Developer's Edition
-
- Powerful Phonetic Search Technology
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- Database developers can build fast and accurate "fuzzy" searches into
- their applications using the PhDbase Developer's Edition. Using a
- clever hybrid of two classic approaches to inexact searching, PhDbase
- delivers the speed of a Soundex-like phonetic search along with the
- accuracy of older fuzzy search methods which must scan the entire
- database. PhDbase even returns its search results in order from most
- to least likely match.
-
- PhDbase takes advantage of the best features of phonetic and fuzzy
- searching, and at the same time, avoids their shortcomings. For
- example, Soundex can't find the name "Korenthal" if you search for
- "Cornthal", but PhDbase will, instantly! PhDbase is simple to
- program. It uses the host database's regular indexes and also
- includes a traditional fuzzy search for special needs like free-text
- searching in memo fields.
-
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- PRODUCT INFORMATION Page 2 of 6
-
- PhDbase can augment many diverse applications, such as online order
- entry systems, mailing list "dedupers", contact management systems,
- genealogy programs, library catalog searchers, and online reference
- tools. All of these can benefit from PhDbase's powerful search tech-
- nology. And PhDbase can easily be added to an existing system as an
- alternate search approach when the methods currently in place fail to
- find the desire record.
-
- The PhDbase Developer's Edition supports FoxPro, Clipper 5.0 and
- Summer '87, dBASE IV and III Plus, Arago, dBXL, Quicksilver, and
- FoxBASE+. (Please call for availability of C/Pascal/Assembler/
- Btrieve, Paradox, Oracle, and other platforms.) Free fact sheets and
- demo disks are available on request.

- Transitions
-
- Special Effects Library for DOS Developers
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- Bored with standard pop-up window fare? Transitions will take your
- windows and fade, slide, explode, wipe, or pan them, or apply any of
- dozens of other special effects. So, instead of simply popping up,
- you get windows that slide in from the left. Menus that drop onto the
- screen a line at a time. Browse windows that fade in and out. And
- help screens that explode from one or all four corners.
-
- Transitions is not itself an interface library─rather, it works *with*
- whatever programming language and DOS text mode interface library
- you're using. Whether you're programming in C, C++, Pascal, dBASE,
- FoxPro, Clipper, Paradox, or any other DOS language (see note below),
- with or without an attendant interface library, Transitions will make
- your programs come alive!
-
- Transitions is so easy to use, even novices can get terrific results
- in minutes. Simply preface your normal display code with a simple
- function call, and like magic, Transitions will intercept the display
-
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- PRODUCT INFORMATION Page 3 of 6
-
- changes and then display them using whatever special effect you
- requested. And Transitions can do this even to built-in language
- features over which you normally have no control. For example, you
- can make a FoxPro browse window slide in from right to left by adding
- =EnterLeft() just before the Browse command!
-
-
- Transitions 1.0 $79.95 60-day money-back guarantee
-
- Note: Release 1.0 supports FoxPro and C only; please call for
- availability of other platforms. Also note that Transitions
- requires a VGA or EGA display.

- Babble!
-
- A Creativity Tool For Writers
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- Babble! analyzes samples of text for style and content, and then mixes
- them together to generate a steady stream of nonsensical prose. Mix
- Shakespeare with Harold Robbins, or Firesign Theatre with Dick and
- Jane! Add special effects like Stutter and Subliminal! You can even
- import your own writings! All text is controlled on-the-fly using
- Babble!'s unique "text-mixing studio", and changes appear instantly.
-
- By mixing up words and ideas, and by finding connections which are not
- obvious on a straight reading of the text, Babble! is useful as a
- creative tool and an idea generator for brainstorming. It has been
- used to name products, inspire marketing and advertising materials,
- and rescue authors from writer's block, and it's even valuable simply
- as a toy for people who love words!
