This new version of the Howsoft Webpage Editor ("webEd") is a complete re-write aimed at over-
coming the limitations of the original version. For example, you can now produce pages of up
to a million pixels in height! This very page was created using webEd.

To use this visual (WYSIWYG) editor, you do not need the slightest knowledge of HTML. You simply
design your page usng 3 types of "widgets": pictures, texts and hotspots (for navigation).

The standard production of a webpage is in the "MHT" format. An MHT file is a webpage where all
the data (including pictures) is contained within a single file. This is great for the actual preparation
of your web-pages, since everything is easily kept together. Thereafter, you can use your MHT files
directly for offline use in documents, Help files, etc., or you can convert them to standard HTML
format (with picture export) for use on the Web.

The webShow Maker program will enable you to easily prepare a slideshow (based on web pages)
so that you can carry it on CD/DVD or a pendrive and give your presentation on any computer that runs
Windows.

After you have prepared the individual web pages for your presentation (using the webEd program
above), make sure the file names indicate their titles and sequence in the desired webshow. Copy
the webShow Maker program to the folder where the web pages are kept, and execute it.

On the simple click of a button, your webshow (i.e. slideshow using web pages) will be ready. The
additional program ("_webShow.exe" - a simplified version of the Microsoft Internet Explorer) will be
ready and waiting in your folder. Your webshow will also be provided with an index page, which you
can further elaborate if you wish. The simple click of another button will centralise (on the screen)
all the pages in your webshow, should you so wish.

Navigation among the web pages of your webshow (and between these pages and the index) is done
in Javascript which has now been included in your web pages. If, later, you wish to transform your
pages back into normal ones again, then just run the webShow Maker program again and clean
everything down, again on the simple click of a button.

By this method, the making and breaking of webshows for public presentation could not be simpler.
Enjoy!

The original "HTML Slideshow" has always been very popular. This new slideshow is very similar in
function, but works purely with pictures. It has one great advantage: it is a STANDALONE program.
This means that when you prepare a presentation and go around travelling with your slideshow on
CD-ROM for example, there is absolutely no installation or "setup" to perform before you can run
the slideshow on another computer. Just put the CD in the drive, double-click on the slideshow
program, and off you go!

In view of its similarity to the old slideshow and this added advantage, it is hoped that the new
"Standalone Slideshow" will be even more popular. Enjoy!

Many webpages are made using little itsy-bitsy widgets of pictures and text which at the initial stage
reflect the results of our creative ideas, inspiration and practicality in mounting them. However, at a
later date, particularly if we wish to clone parts of the page for use in other pages, these little widgets
become inconvenient and it would be better to be able to capture larger portions of the finished page
in the process of reform. For example, portions of text produced by HTML might later be better
incorporated into a picture, particularly if we wish to avoid text-spacing incompatability between
different types of browser.The WebCap program facilitates this process. If you have a complete
webpage on the Internet or on your HD, you can easily display it and capture any portion of it as a
picture.

Have you ever wished you could substitute a coloured area in a picture without affecting the different
hues of the colour or the shading? Well, now you can do it. Just look at the example on the right.

Note that although the rubber is being used carelessly beyond the border of the hat, the colours in
the background stay as they are.

This simple task is not so "simple" as it may seem, and you will be hard pressed to find a piece of
software that does this conveniently. That is why Rubber Dub-Dub was written for you.

Take advantage of our special introductory offer while it lasts. Click on the link above to get more
exciting details about this cool new program.

This is a combined slideshow and screensaver with optional HTML transitional effects, using your
own pictures. Just copy the program to the folder where your pictures are, or if you prefer, keep a
single copy of the program in the same place and specify the picture folder for the sequential display.

Since the transitional effects offered are those commonly available in HTML, you need to have one
of the later versions of Microsoft's Internet Explorer appropriately installed to show transitional effects.
If the little picture on the right is currently demonstrating these effects, then your Internet Explorer is OK.
If the transitional effects do not work, you need either to update your browser or use the HTML
Slideshow with the transitional effects disabled.

This slideshow has been popular for many years. However, a new improved version exists which
does not rely on Microsoft-only HTML to display the transitional effects between one picture and
another. Please see the "Standalone Slideshow" above which is the 3rd item in the Howsoft
Presentation Suite.

Try to imagine the simplest way possible of distributing your pictures to your family, friends and colleagues.
To distribute, you would simply upload the pictures to your site. The person downloading would simply
navigate to this site as he/she would do when using a browser. Well, that's exactly what you can do when
you use the "PLUS" version of the Howsoft HTML SlideShow. And what's more, you can watch the slide-
show as you are doing the download!

This new PLUS version does everything that the "lite" version above does, and quite a lot more. Of course,
it is more fun if you have broadband.

Like the HTML Slideshow above, the Iconshow program will show your icons from the current folder or
from the folder you choose. If you double-click on an icon, it will be loaded into your default icon editing
program. If you have lots of icons in the same folder, they will be shown on multiple pages.

A very practical little program.

Welcome to the howsoft Power Presentation Suite ("powerShow"). With this suite of
2 programs (shown immediately below) you can improve your public presentations
very easily and quickly. The style of preparation is very different to that offered by
products such as Microsoft Powerpoint and the Open Office Presentation program.

One of the strengths of the alternative system presented here is that the products of
the powerShow (web pages) are generally much more versatile, and they have
various other potential uses.

If the computer you are using is connected to the Internet, you can include
external links in your webshow to enrich it with Internet content. The pages of your
webshow can also be as high as you choose.

Use the first program below (webEd) to prepare your web pages individually. Then
very quickly transform them into a webshow (a slideshow using web pages) with the
2nd program, the webShow Maker.

Most people nowadays save their backup on CD-Roms, DVDs or pendrives. This is a wonderful way
of storing data, but it can be a bit of a nuisance if you need to find things. Putting each media item of
the collection in your drive to examine its contents is impractical and tiresome.

DiskTree solves this problem. When you have created your backup on one of these media, just
give it to DiskTree to grab all the directory and file names. Do this with all your media. When you
need to find something, just run DiskTree again and do a search. You will quickly find what you
are looking for.
