WHAT IT IS... 
~~~~~~~~~~

EmailMan  is a dedicated database for keeping track of email addresses. It 
runs as either a program or an accessory.   When run as an accessory it is 
always available in the background and can also type your email  addresses 
into any other open application such as your terminal program.   Addresses 
can be loaded,  saved,  found,  added,  edited, deleted, transmitted, etc.  
EmailMan   will save and load database files containing up to  200  names, 
email addresses, and optional notes.

 
INSTALLING THE EMAILMAN DEMO... 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The EmailMan demo runs both as a program and as an accessory.

To  run  it  as a program just rename  EMDEMO11.ACC  to  EMDEMO11.PRG  and 
double-click on it with the mouse.

To run it as an accessory, leave the filename as it is (EMDEMO11.ACC).  If 
your lucky enough to own CodeHead Technologies MultiDesk (Deluxe), you can 
load the demo as either a resident or non-resident accessory.   Otherwise, 
copy  EMDEMO11.ACC into the root directory of your boot drive  and  reboot 
your computer.

 
USING THE EMAILMAN DEMO... 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The EmailMan demo can be operated using either the mouse or the  computer 
keyboard.   All  of  the commands have keyboard  equivalents.   The  first 
letter  in  the name of the command is the key which is used  to  activate 
that command.  For example, the key equivalent for the Load command is L.

Load (L) allows you to access a database file from a disk drive. 

Save  (S) allows you to store a database file to a disk drive.   ***  This 
     feature is disabled in this demo version. *** 

Find  (F)  allows  you  to search for a  certain  record  in  the  current 
     database. 

Add (A)  allows you to input a new record into the current database.   *** 
     The number of records is limited to 5 in this demo version. *** 

Edit (E) allows you to edit a record in the current database. 

Delete (D) allows you to delete a record in the current database. 

Transmit  (T) allows you to send an email address(es) (using  the  current             
     configuration  settings)  to  any  other  open  application  that  is              
     GEM compatible. 

Config (C) allows you to set the demo's configuration parameters.

Records  can  be marked and unmarked by using the M key or  selecting  the 
name field with the mouse.
 

A Little Tutorial... 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When  you first start to use EmailMan  you'll want to build up a  database 
of the email addresses you use.  To add an address to the current database 
just select the Add function.   A small dialog box will open asking you to 
input a name,  email address, and optional note.  Type in John Dough, then 
press the TAB key to go to the next field.   Now type in J.DOE and for  an 
optional note,  type in Best friend on GEnie.  Now press the RETURN key to 
accept  this  data.   After this,  EmailMan  will display  what  you  just 
entered  and make it the current record.   Since we made a mistake in  the 
person's  last name we'll have to edit the record and change  it.   Select 
the Edit function.   The same dialog box will appear and allow you to make 
any changes that you wish.   Go ahead and change the last name to Doe  and 
then press RETURN to accept the changes.

Now  that we have an address in our database we can do a number of  things 
with  it.   We've  already done some editing to it so now  let's  try  the 
Delete  function.   Select the Delete function.   You will be asked  which 
record  you'd  like to delete.   For now just press RETURN to  select  the 
current record.  Then you will be asked if you'd really like to delete the 
record.   Since  we don't want to at the moment,  just select No with  the 
mouse.  (Or if you happen to be lucky enough to own CodeHead  Technologies 
Warp9,  you can use the function keys on your computer keyboard to  select 
buttons in alert boxes.  This will make EmailMan  totally useable from the 
keyboard.  Please refer to your Warp9 manual for information pertaining to 
these features.)

One of the most important functions of EmailMan  is Transmit.   This  will 
actually  type  the email address into another application  for  you.   So 
let's say for example,  your using your favorite terminal program and  you 
want  to  write a letter to John.   If you have EmailMan   running  as  an 
accessory and your terminal program is GEM compatible,  you can search for 
John's email address using the Find function and then have EmailMan   type 
it in for you using the Transmit function.   To do this,  just select  the 
Find function.   You'll be asked which field you would like to search  on.  
Most  of the time you'll be looking for a name,  as in this  instance,  so 
just press RETURN to select the name field.   Then type in any part of the 
name  you  want to find,  such as John,  to find all the names  with  that 
combination of letters in them.   EmailMan  will display the first one  it 
finds.   If it's not the right one,  just select Find again,  press RETURN 
twice and it will look for the next.   When it _does_ find the right  one, 
select the Transmit function.   Press RETURN to select the current record.  
Now position the mouse into the other program's window or  display.   Then 
press RETURN.  You'll see John's email address being typed on the screen.

When your done adding,  editing,  etc.  be sure to save your work.  Select 
the Save function.   You will be presented with the file  selector,  which 
will  have a default filename typed in.   You can change this to  anything 
you want.  For now, just press RETURN and your file will be saved with the 
filename EMAILMAN.EML.   If you hadn't saved your work and tried to  leave 
EmailMan, it would ask you before quitting if you wanted to or not.

To exit EmailMan all you need to do is close it's window.   You can  also 
just  press the ESCAPE or Q keys.   The result will be the same.   If  you 
haven't  saved your work,  EmailMan  will ask you if you'd like to  before 
exiting.   If you _have_ saved your work, then the program will just exit, 
no questions asked.

Have fun with the demo!
