New Features in WordSmith 2.1

• Virtual File System (VFS) Support. This enables users of the Palm m500/m505, Sony Clie, Handspring

Treo 90 and Handera 330 to read and write to and from the Secure Digital (SD) card, MultiMediaCard
(MMC) card or Sony Memory Stick®. You can also compress documents on the expansion card.

• Spell Checker. The spell checker is integrated with WordSmith and comes with 2 dictionaries, large and

small. The Spell Checker was developed by DDH Software, Inc. (

www.ddhsoftware.com

).

• Thesaurus. The thesaurus is also integrated and utilizes the same dictionaries as the spell checker. The

Thesaurus was developed by DDH Software, Inc. (

www.ddhsoftware.com

).

• The Mac OS WordSmith desktop application has been carbonized and now will run natively under OS X.
• FineType Manager is now available... delete, beam and preview FineType fonts on your organizer!
• New larger font available for hi-resolution devices.
• Ability to Auto-Save.
• Enhancements to View Mode. Take-A-Break feature is now available in View mode all of the time and

dragging on the far left side of the screen will always do a drag scroll. This is a good way to stop an auto-
scroll.

• Main-screen UI Enhancements. Now you can easily determine which documents are plain text, password

protected, uncompressed and WordSmith Docs. Here is how: (P) for plain documents, padlock for
protected documents and [W] for WordSmith rich text documents. In addition, uncompressed documents
now have a dotted line around the document's size. If you tap on the size, WordSmith will automatically
compress the document if it is less than 4k. If the doc is larger than 4k, WordSmith tells you how long it
will take to compress and asks if you want to continue. Please note that compression without opening the
document is disabled on the Clie 710/760 due to a bug in the Sony VFS driver.

• Misc. enhancements. Replace All's performance has been enhanced and Go To Previous now remembers

the last 50 locations instead of the last 10.
