It feels like a dream too good to be true, but I keep pinching myself, and I don't wake up, so it must be a dream, I mean true; DataPhile has shipped! The demo version allows you to do everything with the sole limitation of being able to store only 25 records. In next/pub/submissions on cs.orst.edu and sonata.cc.purdue.edu is DataPhile.tar, which contains: drwxr-xr-x 2 andrew wheel 1024 Apr 7 14:36 DataPhile.pkg/ drwxr-xr-x 2 andrew wheel 1024 Apr 7 14:37 DataPhileAux.pkg/ drwxr-xr-x 2 andrew wheel 1024 Apr 3 11:50 DataPhileUpdater.pkg/ -rw-rw-rw- 1 andrew wheel 3324 Apr 7 14:33 DataPhile_ReleaseNotes.rtf sum DataPhile.tar 14814 1592 Expect the usual migration to pub/next/demos on orst, and pub/next/2.0-release/demos on sonata. DataPhile.pkg is the app with help files and template databases. DataPhileAux.pkg has the labels templates and sample databases. Check out MedicalConvention.dp, to see a full blown database with many views. DataPhileUpdater.pkg contains dpUpdater app, which converts beta DataPhile databases to the release 1.0 format* DataPhile_ReleaseNotes.rtf has installation instructions, tips for converting databases, and manual errata. *this is what has held up the ship date for so long: we wanted the release version to be compatible with 3.0 NeXTstep system software, which it is, but we had to wait to get all the goodies available in 3.0. As a result, your early databases are not directly compatible, but can automatically be converted by dpUpdater to the new format. See DataPhile_ReleaseNotes.rtf for more details. -- andrew ||<<-->>||<<==>>||<<++>>||<<??>>||<<++>>||<<-->>||<<==>>||<<++>>|| !! Andrew Stone !!
