Geotools comes from the need of a method to upload in a quick and simple way html pages on the Geocities free sites.

The final result is an easy to use program with only few commands, but powerful enough to allow a full data interchange between your local(HD) and remote(on Geocities) directories.

How is born:

Geotools is a software that allow you to manage your GeoCities Home Page. The stronger point of the program is the ability to transfer files with the HTTP protocol (as EZ-Upload), a thing that no one Amiga browser is able to do.

The idea behind Geotools came to me when I encountered many problems to upload my home page files with the Amiga. I frequently need to update my home page and anyone that doesn't use Netscape knows how difficult it is on an Amiga (only ftp upload with long rules and waitings just to see that the page doesn't work right....).As added charge you must know that in Italy you pay the use of the phone line every 6 minutes (3 when you want to talk with awake people) so I don't like to stay some minutes on line just to wait that busy server to move my files. Over the commodity, Geotools has even an high transfer speed;You can easily look the result of your upload just pressing the DIR button.In short the great exemplification given by Geotools makes the upgrade of your web pages just a matter of pressing a button or two.

For every command sent a clear and simple message is given on the monitor window, so anyone can have under control the situation.

Web pages just uploaded will be immediately put on line and usable with any browser without any other loss of time and money.
