MUIbase V1.5
------------
MUIbase is a relational programmable database that uses MUI as
user interface.
MUIbase is not public domain or free software. If you use MUIbase
then you have to register your copy after a short while. You are
allowed to install and run MUIbase without registration for a period
of 4 weeks. After that time you have to register your copy of MUIbase
or delete it from your system. Reinstalling MUIbase does not extend
the license.
After registration you receive your personal MUIbase key-file which
enables all crippled features of MUIbase.
For more information about registering MUIbase, see the documentation
in the Docs directory. The documentation is available in three formats:
AmigaGuide, dvi, and html.
Features
========
MUIbase is a fast and very flexible database for the Amiga. It is
for users who want to manage data in a comfortable and easy way.
MUIbase is able to manage any kind of data, e.g. addresses, CD series,
movies, or your income and expense. The power of MUIbase lies in its
clear and powerful graphical user interface and its programming
capabilities. The latter makes it possible to automatically calculate
and maintain nearly everything, starting from automatically summing
up values, e.g. for calculating the total amount of income or the
total amount of recorded time of a CD, up to automatically creating
and printing letters for any purpose.
MUIbase is the successor of AmigaBase, a hierarchical programmable
database which is still available but considered obsolete with the
appearance of MUIbase. All registered users of AmigaBase can get a
free upgrade to MUIbase by sending their AmigaBase registration number
and return address to me (Email preferred).
MUIbase offers the following features:
* Handling of multiple projects at the same time.
* Attributes can be of type string, memo (multi line text), integer,
real, date, time, bool, choice (one item out of many items), reference
(easy way to reference a record of another table), button (for
starting MUIbase programs), and virtual (compute value on the fly).
* The string type can also manage lists of strings, files, and fonts.
An OS 3.x datatype gadget allows displaying external images.
* Unlimited number of records.
* Dynamic loading of records. Records which are not needed may be
flushed from memory (e.g. when memory is low).
* Programmability. With the easy and powerful MUIbase programming
language complex tasks can be implemented. The language also
includes a SELECT-FROM-WHERE query for easy and fast data retrieval.
* Ordering of records by any combinations of attributes.
* Flexible and powerful search and filter facility.
* Query editor which allows entering and managing of SELECT-FROM-WHERE
queries. The queries can be saved and the results can be printed.
* Import and export facility.
* Uses MUI as user interface. The interface is highly customizable.
External images can be included in the user interface.
* Portability. MUIbase development has been done under the idea of
easy portability. The system/gui part has been separated from the
ANSI/C part such that porting MUIbase will result in only porting
the system/gui part. The author is currently investigating a Java
implementation of the user gui. This would make the database
available for nearly all computer systems, including Linux,
Windows, and MacOS.
The unregistered version of MUIbase is crippled in several ways.
See the MUIbase documentation for a list of limitations in the
unregistered version.
New since V1.4
--------------
o Some internal changes to make MUIbase portable.
We are now heading towards a Qt port of MUIbase.
o Bug fixes and enhancements concerning register groups.
o New menu item for deleting all records of a table.
o Improved speed for filtering records.
o New function (CMP expr1 expr2) that returns an integer
representing the order relation of its arguments.
o Comparison function for defining record order. See example
"Demos/Order.mb" and the user manual.
o New menu item for reordering all records of a table.
o New order related functions: GETISSORTED, SETISSORTED,
REORDER and REORDERALL.
o New string functions: RINDEXSTR, RINDEXSTR*, RINDEXBRK,
RINDEXBRK*, and COPYSTR.
o new i/o functions: FEOF, FSEEK and FTELL.
o Avoiding display update when deleting all records.

This archive is an update, because in the first release there was no
german catalog.
