This program is not an indicator for FD-disks, because it 1. is too voluminous, 2. needs OS2.0 or higher, 3. needs more memory than other indicators. @ENDNODE @NODE Warum "Why MultiIndicator ?" @{b}@{u}Why MultiIndicator ?@{uu}@{ub} Read the following feature list and @{u}compare@{uu} with other programs ! @{b}1.@{ub} MultiIndicator shows ASC-files (with or without ESC-sequences and Tabs), HEX-files and Guide-files (if an external Guideindicator is available). MultiIndicator decides automatically if it uses the ASC-, HEX- or Guide- indicator. @{b}2.@{ub} MultiIndicator passes over ESC-sequences which would impair the output on the screen. @{b}3.@{ub} MultiIndicator can be configured with Prefs-files, that means you can always configure MultiIndicator differently. @{b}4.@{ub} MultiIndicator opens an AppIcon, if it was started from the Workbench, so that you can use it when you need it. @{b}5.@{ub} MultiIndicator shows compressed Guide-files exactly. This is not possible if you use AmigaGuide or MultiView alone. @{b}6.@{ub} You can compress and encrypt files with XPK. MultiIndicator realizes if a file is compressed and encrypted, for example you can compress a file with SHRI and then crypt that file with FEAL - MultiIndicator realizes this. @{b}7.@{ub} MultiIndicator has a comfortable print option, so you don't need a special print utility for ASC-files. @{b}8.@{ub} MultiIndicator supports Localization under Workbench 2.1. @{b}9.@{ub} MultiIndicator supports many options of OS 3.x, for example scalable Gadgets, NewLookMenus, Busypointer etc. @{b}10.@{ub} MultiIndicator has a very good help system. @{b}11.@{ub} MultiIndicator supports an external ASC-editor. @{b}12.@{ub} MultiIndicator supports an external HEX-editor. @{b}13.@{ub} MultiIndicator allows you to change the line spacing. @{b}14.@{ub} MultiIndicator has a little ARexxPort. @{b}15.@{ub} etc. These are only the most important features. Look at the changes in @{"History" link Entwicklung}. @ENDNODE @NODE Woher "Where I get new Versions ?" @{b}New versions of MultiIndicator@{ub} You get the latest version of MultiIndicator from FTP-Server AmiNET (only important versionchanges), in good Mailboxes or at the @{b}Official Support Site for MultiIndicator@{ub} @{fg highlight}@{b}T U R T L E K o m m u n i k a t i o n e.
