FrontPage
98 from Microsoft was selected as the main tool for the Gateway's development. Below
are other handy tools (shareware or freeware) that may be of use to the developer.
Note that some of these products are free to use only for a limited period; please observe
the licensing agreement.
- WinZIP
for Windows 95
A handy utility usually used for uncompressing downloaded ZIP files. Can also be
used to compress files and folders in Windows 95 computers for archiving purposes.
- EditPlus
Text Editor version 1.1
Text editor that allows to search for text strings over several directories and edit the
found files. It was used in this project to strip out the META descriptions from the html
files created by FrontPage.
- LView
Pro for Windows 3.x and 95
A simple utility for viewing GIF and JPG picture files. Can be used to create
'contact prints' or thumbnail pictures as previews for viewing larger GIF and JPG files.
- WS-FTP File Transfer
program
A useful utility for uploading and downloading files to/from a web location.
Although FrontPage has a Publish feature, it does not download files in their 'native'
format. A FTP makes it easy to pull down files without adding FrontPage extensions.
You can find more of these utilities on
the Internet. These files were downloaded from http://www.shareware.com
OTHER RESOURCES
- Microsoft's FrontPage 98 web site.
- Tool box. A mish-mash of
files used in the development of the Gateway web site. You will find an assorted
array of Microsoft Image Composer files, source documents, test graphics files, and test
html files. You will find them in this CD under the folder name FILES.
