Quickfax is a GUI written in C++ with TinyUI for use with FlexFAX. It includes the following features: 1) Sending of out-going faxes. 2) List Managment for multiple destinations. 3) User definable filters. 4) User definable Toggle ( for repetitve attachments ). 5) Cover-Sheet generation ( Not FlexFAX cover-sheet ). 6) Ability to include a cover-sheet template. 7) Simple importing feature. 8) Ability to include multiple attachment files ( Fax-Packs ) *NOTE: Quickfax requires v2.2 of FlexFAX. ------------------- To install: tar -xvf quickfax.tar Files: x quickfax/package.example, 418 bytes, 1 block : example of Fax-Packs ( if you have a need !) x quickfax/phone.example, 1008 bytes, 2 blocks : example of simple importing. x quickfax/quickfax, 1011824 bytes, 1977 blocks : Main program. '/usr/local/bin' x quickfax/quickfax.icon, 10897 bytes, 22 blocks : It's Icon goes in '/usr/lib/images' ================================================== FEATURES: FILTERS: -------- Filters are set-up using 'Preferences' an example filter would be: Filter Name: PostScript Filter: *.ps filters only use '*' as a wild card character at the present time. COVER SHEET TEMPLATE: --------------------- This is a simple feature: 1) Create a header using a program that will output EPS. 2) Save the file as EPS. 3) Under preferences turn the "Include Template" on. Then fill in the "Cover Template File" field. Now when you send a fax it will put your header on top of the Cover-Sheet. FAX-PACKS: ---------- Fax packs was created for use in work enviroments that have a heavy demand on the use of a fax-modem. The idea is to allow groupings of files to be under a heading. If you use the example fax-packs file "package.example" an option menu will appear above the "Print" button, menu titles will be the pack-names given in the pack-file. By selecting a pack-name, all files in that pack will be added to the send box. VIEWERS: -------- The following programs and there secondaries are used for viewing files. In the future this will change, but for now it looks for these programs. Supports: Text: /usr/sbin/jot else /usr/bin/vi PostScript: /usr/sbin/xpsview else /usr/bin/X11/ghostview Showcase: /usr/sbin/showcase else none TIFF: /usr/local/bin/faxview else converts to PostScript RGB: /usr/sbin/ipaste else none You can e-mail me at davep@corp.sgi.com with bugs.
