direct, the personal communication manager organizes all person-related information in a simple, yet flexible database. Its straightforward user interface gives you instant access to the information you need: look up any person with just a few keystrokes. direct sets up phone connections fast and without any trouble using its own smart phone dialer. Or select a phone number in any other application and use the direct dial service to call this number.
direct is the first application to include an address book that's directly based on the NEXTSTEP Workspace addresses. direct does not need to export fax numbers to the Workspace or import Workspace address folders as it uses the same address database concurrently with the Workspace. The Workspace is immediately notified of address changes made in direct and vice versa, leading to always up-to-date information in the fax panel fax number lists, and on fax cover pages containing an address.
Unlike the Workspace address inspector, direct is streamlined towards fast information access. The efficient keyboard control lets you search rapidly in the different fields without having to resort to the mouse. Once an address is selected, you can directly add or modify information.
direct includes its own smart telephone dialer that can dial phone numbers for you (if you use it with the mix box).
The phone dialer remembers the last numbers you dialed and keeps them ready for fast and easy redial. If used with mix, direct is integrated into the automatic service detection, automatically switching incoming calls to fax, modem, or telephone. With its intuitive user interface, direct puts an end to complicated key combinations on your telephone.
direct runs on NEXTSTEP, both on NeXT computers and PCs.
