*** WHAT'S NEW in Disk Factory Version 1.1
>> X-Format: Cross-Format Duplication
X-Format, shorthand for our new cross-format duplication feature,
allows you to copy any diskette to any other diskette of like or
greater capacity. Perfect for those who distribute the same files
in various diskette formats! X-Format is completely automatic and
requires no user intervention. Need to copy a 360K diskette to a
720K diskette? Or a 720K diskette to a 1.44MB diskette? It's a
snap. Just insert your diskette and go.
>> Built-In Mini File Manager
Unsure of whether a particular diskette is actually empty, or whether
another is actually the diskette you want to copy? Now you can view
diskette contents, run programs, and inspect associated files without
ever leaving Disk Factory.
>> Improved Coactive Prompt
Disk Factory's revolutionary Coactive Prompt, which informs you to
change diskettes and allows you to communicate with Disk Factory
without ever leaving your current application, is now smarter than
ever. Move the mouse pointer over the prompt and it will enlarge to
display helpful instructions. The new prompt even provides access to
further online help.
>> Improved Interface
Disk Factory now features a slicker, friendlier user interface. More
realistic graphics and an improved layout help make Disk Factory more
attractive and easier to use than ever before. Yet it remains
faithful to the design of the original, so users of earlier versions
will immediately feel at home.
>> Improved Support for Non-DOS Diskettes
Disk Factory can now copy many non-DOS formats, including Macintosh
1.44MB and Atari ST diskettes. For those of you who copy non-DOS
diskettes on a regular basis, we've also added a helpful menu item to
disable warning messages concerning non-DOS diskettes.
For more information on these and other Disk Factory features, please
consult the online help. Start Disk Factory and press F1 on your
keyboard to browse the online help system.
