Pokras Requires HyperCard Player 2.1 or higher. Version 1 was a "Software of the Month Club" selection. A cute little target game that lets you satisfy your desire to blow things up. However, in doing so you make use of your ability to judge angles and proportions, and so Island Defender is a great way for kids to learn and practice those skills in a fun and challenging way. Island Defender provides four levels of action against increasingly smaller target ships. Your electronic targeting scope allows you 360 degree coverage of the surrounding ocean from your volcano hide-away. Just set the targeting scope, click FIRE!, and watch your mortar shell head (hopefully) towards a direct hit on the enemy ship. If you miss, don't be surprised if the enemy insults you! Version 2 is the result of suggestions from registered users. A Practice mode has been added which overlays a grid on both the shooting area and the target scope to make it easier to learn how to aim the mortar. An Easy game has been added which allows you to aim the mortar in a more intuitive fashion. Shareware $5.

Phantasie gives the referee the ability to design his own spells, species, individuals, adventures and magic items. The referee then uses that information with the Phantasie software to run games. I hope you enjoy it. It was a long time in the making.

Designed to allow text searches with Context display (shows the actual sentences the words were found in), it indexes target sets of folders which can be anywhere - on your hard disk or network, or even on CD-ROMs or on off-line volumes. (so you don't need to have your files on-line to text search them!) Unlike indexers which only index whole hard disks, the UF Text Indexer is designed to index a target set of folders. A folder Set can include folders on local or network volumes, or even on off-line volumes such as CD-ROMs, etc. (you don't need your files online to text search them!). Also unlike normal indexers, it can search on *parts* of words as well as whole words, and it will index all languages - including Japanese. It is also highly accurate and will never produce false hits. While indexing provides super-fast access to your documents, the downside is that the indexing process itself is naturally very slow, and should be done either in the background or at night (You would not want watch a few thousand documents being indexed). However, because the UltraFind Text Indexer is *incremental*, it does not need to re-index everything, instead it only indexes new or updated documents, making re-indexing simple and very fast. MAIN FEATURES -- Allows searches displaying context (sentence!) of each word found -- Incremental Indexing -- Allows whole or partial word searches -- Highly accurate (no false hits!) -- Can index documents on CD-ROM & off-line volumes -- Indexes all languages (script system compatible) -- Indexes all know document types -- Can run in the background & notify License Fee: FREE Requirements: Requires UltraFind 2.5 (available on Info-Mac) 5MB RAM minimum, a color Macintosh Author: Julian Linford & Steve Linford, UltraDesign Technology Ltd.
