assistance-0.9 Last Update: 03/02/97

Assistance 0.9 - This shareware utility adds a pop up menu to your Assist button. Now, instead of tapping Assist, please, a choice and THEN tapping please, you just tap Assistance!, tap from the pop-up list and it executes! If you have written or selected text selected before tapping Assistance!, that text will be added to the chosen command. So the next time you see a phone number or name somewhere, select it and tap Assistance!-Call. It will set it up for you. Assistance! only uses the top portion of your Assist button. New function allows you to tap the Assist button when a Reminder notify is visible. If you add an entry to your date book like Call Bill, when the reminder appears, just tap the Assist button.
