Vertex Librarian Release 1.1 Upgrade Available from Vertex Software

Vertex Software announces the release of Vertex Librarian 1.1, which
fixes minor bugs in the 1.0 release.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA (October 12, 1992) -- Vertex Software
is pleased to announce Release 1.1 of its Vertex Librarian product,
the most advanced information retrieval product available for the NeXT
computer.

Vertex Librarian 1.1 is available immediately from Vertex Software.
An upgrade from previous versions of Vertex Librarian is free to all
registered users.  If you have not received an upgrade after two
weeks following this announcement, please contact Vertex Software.

Vertex Librarian is a powerful information retrieval system which
extends the idea of the NeXTstep Digital Librarian.  While maintaining
the look and feel of Digital Librarian, Vertex Librarian adds features
such as management of any type of NeXTstep file; hypertext browsing
and editing; an extended qery language; thesaurus-based conceptual
searching; document structure (pattern) analysis; and complete
multi-user network integrity. 

Vertex Librarian runs under NeXTstep 2.0 and higher.  This will be the
last interim release which is not 3.0-specific.

This release fixes several minor bugs found in the debut of the product.
The following lists the bug fixes/enhancements for Version 1.1 of Vertex
Librarian for NeXTstep:

- fixed bug in handling of file names longer than 256 characters
- fixed bug in handling of text containing foreign characters
- added the fast indexing feature and associated toggle on the indexing
  defaults panel
- fixed recognition of Rich Text Format files that do not end with a .rtf
  extension
- added toggle to the Librarian Window allowing users to show full paths
  for file names
- fixed the panel that pops up on indexing files into an info base that has
  a default filter assigned; allows choosing Repeat (which uses the filter
  on all the remaining files) and Cancel (which cancels the whole indexing
  process)
- fixed a bug with file names containing certain characters, e.g., &,
  |, >, etc.
- fixed a bug in the structural analysis concerning end of line ($)

The demo available via anonymous FTP from sonata.cc.purdue.edu has
also been updated.  It is in a tar'ed Installer package in
/pub/next/submissions/VertexEval.tar. 

Vertex Librarian 1.1 is available immediately from Vertex Software
(orders 800-333-4845), for $399.00.
