We, SGPT, happily announces that we have started to deliver Databag.

About DataBag
=============
Using NeXT computer for the daily work, you often come across
information/data which you want to save for later use. In such a case,
use DataBag instead of the ordinal NeXTSTEP SavePanel.

DataBag is a Personal Data Archiver application, which has the
following aspects:

(1) DataBag manages your valuable data for you. With DataBag, you can
    collect data in one place. Collecting them in one place generates
    many merits.

(2) What you have to do is only one thing. Transfer data to DataBag
    using NeXTSTEP data input operation like Cut&Paste, file dragging,
    or Services Menu etc.. And DataBag takes care of the somewhat
    tedious settlement which is commonly associated with data
    management. For example, you need not to worry about the file name
    for data, nor about the key definition for later data search.

(3) With DataBag, you can save all the data types which NeXTSTEP
    officially offers. Saving Emacs buffer/region content is also
    possible. 

(4) For data search, DataBag uses Librarian. The filter service
    program, with which Librarian can recognize DataBag data-format,
    is included. Because Librarian has powerful indexing function, it
    enables incredible fast search even if the data storage becomes
    large quantities.

(5) You can launch data resided on the DataBag window by double
    clicking. This feature reduces the necessity of WorkSpace. 

Requirement
===========
DataBag requires NEXTSTEP 3.0 or more. NEXTSTEP 2.* is unsuitable. We
are delivering Black hardware version, but if you request, White
hardware (Intel) version is also available now.

Price
=====
US$100.00. We don't provide the educational price.


How to Get DataBag Demo Version
===============================
We will place DataBag demo version in some ftp-site in a week or so. 
Besides ftp, we can send it by e-mail(NeXTMail). The e-mail size is
about 700Kbyte. If you prefer snail mail to e-mail, sending it by a
floppy is also available.  Please let us know your address in the
latter case.

The demo version can save maximum 50 data. Because 50 data is somewhat
large quantities for a normal NeXT user, we think that you can
experience DataBag thoroughly. Complete on-line manual is included in
the demo version.
