 Mountain Rose Multi Media  - Galacticomm Add-On Developers Since 1988!

Spijkenisse, 15 Feb, 1996.

       Mountain Rose Multi Media, one of the leading Worldgroup ISV's,
   announced the release of one of the most needed add-ons for Worldgroup.

                      THE WORLDGROUP PROGRAM INITIALIZER
                      ==================================

         One of the biggest complains callers have when they start using
    Worldgroup is the amount of data transmitted to their system before they
        can use a client application. Especially callers who connect to a
    Worldgroup Server over the (slow) Internet, need to wait forever until a
         client app gets updated. A lot of those callers really like the
     Worldgroup Client/Server Interface but still go back to the old fashion
         ASCII/ANSI interface, just because it's faster to get started.

           With the release of The Worldgroup Program Initializer,
          Mountain Rose Multi Media puts an end to all this waiting!


The Worldgroup Program Initializer allows you to create so called
        'Client Zip Files'. Each Client Zip File contains all files
        needed by a client. With the build in Not-key handler, you can
        easy menu-ize those Client Zip Files. After installing The
        Worldgroup Program Initializer, your callers do not have to wait
        for updates anymore. The first time a caller select the
        menu-option of a client, the Client Zip File is transfered,
        Unzipped, Installed (and Removed from the users hard drive)
        without any user intervention. Your callers will save up to 80
        percent on transmission time.

The Worldgroup Program Initializer is one of the most easy to install,
        configure and maintain Client Modules you've ever seen. For each
        Worldgroup Client the sysop can specify which key an user must
        have to be able to download the Client Zip File and how much
        credits to charge (or give!) when the Client Zip File is
        tranmitted.

        In addition, it allows the sysop to specify two keys that will
        be given to the user when the Client Zip File is transmitted. It
        will also allow you to specify two keys to be taken away from the
        user when the Client Zip File is transmitted.

But there's much more: for each Client Zip File, the sysop can define
        four different messages to tell the user what's happening: 1)
        during transfer, 2) just before Unzipping/Installing, 3) before
        (Client-) program execution and 4) after program termination.

Once installed, you'll never have to worry about it anymore. Even if you
        install updates of Client Applications: The Worldgroup Program
        Initializer has a full version control and automatically update
        the Client Zip Files when needed.

One Disk Worldgroup Manager:
        Worldgroup Sysops have been asking for it for about a year now.
        The Worldgroup Program Initializer makes it all possible. Just
        create a minimal WGManager disk and let the user get the Clients
        as efficient as possible: as a compressed Zip File.
        The Worldgroup Program Initializer even creates a MASTER.ZIP
        that contains all Clients YOU specify. With one single mouse
        click your callers can install ALL clients at once.

The Worldgroup Program Initializer will generate money for you the
moment you install it. But, don't take our word for it. Just listen to
Gregory Gooden, sysop and owner of Annex - one of the largest Worldgroup
Systems in the world:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
   |  "My callers used to avoid the Worldgroup Manager because they   |
   |   always had to download large amounts of Clients and Updates.   |
   |                                                                  |
   |   NOT ANYMORE! Program Initializer does it all at once for them  |
   |                and in less time!  Now my money spent on Client   |
   |                applications doesn't go to waste!"                |
    ------------------------------------------------------------------


---------------------------------------------------------------------------

But, you've seen just one of the functions. The Worldgroup Program
Initializer not only allows you to menu-ize Client applications, it
allows you to menu-ize ANY Zip-file !!!!!!

-   Imagen having Netscape as an icon on your menu tree. The user clicks
    on the icon, Netscape is transfered, Unzipped and automatically the
    SETUP.EXE program of Netscape is started. When Netscape is installed
    The Worldgroup Program Initializer automatically removes all
    unneeded files.

-   Menu-ize your own Subscription Program that prints out a
    subscription form on the users printer.

-   Menu-ize your own WinSock installer.

-   You can even menu-ize batch files.

During the beta cycle of The Worldgroup Program Initializer our beta
testers 'invented' functions we didn't even think of, almost EACH DAY!

Again, listen to Gergory Gooden of Annex Online:

    -----------------------------------------------------------------
   | "I spent HOURS every day in tech support explaining to callers  |
   |  how to download our slip install program and start the install |
   | process. With MR_INIT, I just tell them, 'CLICK THAT ICON!'."   |
    -----------------------------------------------------------------


Or, to Bob Cooper, Sysop of Idaho's most popular Worldgroup System:

          --------------------------------------------------
         |   "This module is more popular than handing out  |
         |         free dollars on a street corner!"        |
          --------------------------------------------------


The Worldgroup Program Initializer comes in two flavors:

        MR_Init Light:  $$$$ FREE $$$$  (only works for MR_ Clients)
                                        (Menu-izing other clients and
                                         free Zip-Files disabled)

          MR_Init Pro:  Just $ 99.-     (all the above functions)
