Has anyone used TEXT-SHOW from DECISIONS Software? The local Community
Information Center is looking for some software to do demos/tutorials/etc
of their Adult Literacy and other databases and they cannot afford things
like Dan Bricklin's Demo Program. ($300 in Canada)
I would like to hear from anyone who has used this program. It is listed
in the PC-SIG catalog as DISK2888.ZIP
Please reply by e-mail. If there is enough interest i will summarize and
post the responses.
FYI: TEXT-SHOW is an ASCII screen presentation program using text files.
Like PC-STORYBOARD or SHOWPARTNER it uses screen fades, seques and special
effects but the screens it displays are ASCII.
