assist-todos-1.0 Last Update: 03/02/97

Assist Todos makes using Assist with todo fun again. No more waiting for Assist to process a phrase, to tell you it can't interpret the phrase, or that the phrase is too long. Features faster way to enter todos with Assist Unlimited length of phrase can be used with Assist. Todos are saved right to your To Do List so you don't have to go thru the process of opening Dates and create a new To Do slip. IGOR aware. Price $10.00

backdrop-1.2 Last Update: 03/02/97

Backdrop Plus 1.2 - is an alternative to the NotePad as the backdrop, or background, application for the Newton. With the NotePad closed, you save as much as 10k in heap (similar to RAM on a desktop machine.) This means that you can have more extensions and applications loaded at once, and you will get fewer memory-related problems and restarts. Each loaded application or extension takes up a small amount of heap. Since the NotePad is not used all the time, closing it when not used means there's more heap available the rest of the time. You should usually try to keep your heap above 35-40k after a restart (it will drop lower as you use your Newton. This is normal.).

Big Notes 2.0 Last Update: 01/28/98

Big Notes raises the built in limit on NotePad notes to 32k, provided the heap space is available. Freeware. Credit: Stand Alone Software.

Corrector+ 2.6 Last Update: 05/05/98

Corrector+ improves the accuracy of handwriting recognition. We can't always write according to the preferences of Newton's printed recognizer (i.e separating characters). We can't help but connect two or more characters every now and then ... it's habit for most of us after all! Unfortunately, Newton doesn't take well to these connected characters. So, if you want to see how Corrector+ can increase HWR accuracy on your Newton, try this free 45-day demo version of Corrector+. Credit: Adam Tow, Foundation Systems.
