- PC-SIG LIBRARY ON CD-ROM UPDATED TO INCLUDE A NEW USER INTERFACE AND MORE
- THAN 800 MB OF PROGRAMS June 21, 1992, SUNNYVALE, CALIF. - PC-SIG, Inc.
- today announced availability of The Eleventh Edition of the PC-SIG Library
- on CD-ROM. The PC-SIG Library on CD-ROM contains over 800 megabytes of
- shareware and includes more than 300 new programs, 550 updated programs,
- and the addition of 75 megabytes of Windows 3.x shareware. The
- user-interface has been completely re-engineered to take advantage of the
- HyperWriter! hypermedia and multimedia authoring system from NTERGAID, Inc.

- The implementation of HyperWriter! provides significant performance and
- ease of use enhancements. Programs can access and download much faster
- than with previous editions. Programs have been reorganized and indexed
- for better referencing. Users just c lick with a mouse, or point with the
- cursor, on a program name to see a complete description of the program.
- Downloading or copying a program is handled automatically by HyperWriter!
- Addition of a preview option is especially important for anyone who uses
- images, icons, or fonts. "You can preview the whole library of images to
- find the right one," according to Bruce Kent, product development manager.
- "This CD finally makes it possi ble to conserve your disk space and paper,
- yet still have all the information you need to make an informed decision,"
- said Kent.
-
- All new and updated programs have been reviewed and tested by PC-SIG. Every
- program goes through extensive virus checking using the most recent version
- of VIRUSCAN from McAfee Associates, and other anti-virus software.
- According to Kent, "In the ten ye ars we've distributed shareware, we have
- never had a confirmed report of a virus on any of our distributed programs
- or CD-ROMs."
