LookUp 1.1

LookUp 1.1 is a small Newton utility which runs in the background and checks 
automatically whether there are any jobs to do in Newton`s ToDo list under 
Dates. An alarm is given when you switch on the Newton if anything is found to
do, and you are given the option of going straight to the ToDo list, whereby 
LookUp sets the ToDo date to today's date automatically.

The LookUp distribution contains the following files:
-LookUE11.pkg: LookUp (english) package for the Apple MessagePad (Newton)
-LookUD11.pkg: LookUp (german) package for the Apple MessagePad (Newton)
-ReadMe.ger: This README in German
-ReadMe.eng: This README in English

Install LookUp with the Newton Connection Kit or the Package Installer. There is no icon for LookUp in Extras, but you will see an additional LookUp option in the Newton's Prefs. If needed, you can deleted LookUp just like any other Newton application, in Extras/Card or Prefs/Memory, depending where you installed it. 

The following settings can be configured in Newton's Prefs for LookUp 1.1:

%  Priority checkboxes: Use these to set the ToDo priorities which LookUp should react to. For example, you may only want LookUp to remind you of Priority 3 items. 
LookUp is inactive if none of the boxes are checked. See also the Deactivate button, described below.

%  Delay: This slider sets the length of time that the LookUp alarm window remains visible after switching on the Newton. If you set the slider to  maximum, the LookUp alarm window will not disappear automatically, and you will need to close it manually.

%  LookUp: This popup lets you choose how often LookUp should warn you about unfinished jobs:
- every time: LookUp warns you each time you switch on the Newton if there are any jobs to do.
- once an hour: LookUp warns you each time you switch on the Newton if there  are any jobs to do, but not more than once per hour.
- once a day: LookUp warns you the first time you switch the Newton on each day if there are any jobs to do.

%  Sound on: If you check this box and there are jobs to do, you will get an acoustic alarm sound from LookUp in addition to the alarm window. If you have configured a password for your Newton, make sure you have set a long enough Delay with LookUp's slider, else you won't get any alarm at all if you turn the alarm sound off.  

%  Activate or Deactivate: Use this button to switch LookUp on or off. If LookUp is deactivated, the LookUp preferences soup will be deleted if you  remove LookUp from your Newton (by deleting LookUp or simply by pulling out the memory card). This includes your LookUp registration code too, so make a note of the registration code elsewhere and be careful with the deactivate button! You only really need to use it if you want to completely remove LookUp from your Newton. If you just want to switch LookUp off, uncheck all the Priority checkboxes instead (see description above).

LookUp is about 60 kB in size and needs only about 1,3 kB in Newton's heap.

LookUp is a ShareWare product of the Corporate Service Gesellschaft fr medizinische Softwareentwicklung mbH. You may copy LookUp and give it to others, but you must always copy it together with the ReadMe-Files. 

The ShareWare fee is US$ 10. You can register LookUp and pay the fee through CompuServe (GO SWREG, ID: 3220) or you can transfer the fee (or the equivalent amount in another currency) to Corporate Sevice's bank account (see below). Alternatively, you can post a bank check to the address below. 

When registering, send us the LookUp registration code which is displayed in LookUp's registration window. This code is calculated from the name configured in your Newton's Prefs. If you are registering through CompuServe SWREG, type this code in the same field as your phone number, separated from the latter  with a "*" character. 

After receiving your payment we will send you a registration number, which you should enter in LookUp's registration window to stop the shareware warning from appearing. Registered LookUp 1.0 users can get a registration number for  LookUp 1.1 free of charge by sending us the new registration code together with your name.

If you send us a money transfer, don't forget to specify "LookUp", and include your name and address too (if possible), including e-mail address if you have  one, so we can keep you informed about updates and about other products from Corporate Service.
