What is ActiveWords? |
ActiveWords is user interface technology that adds a simple and
powerful attribute to Windows®, it turns words into
actions. You enter or select any words in
any context at any time, and are directly connected with
services related to the meaning of those words. For
example, trigger the word "weather" and a web
page showing your current local weather appears.
|
What Can I Do With ActiveWords? |
ActiveWords allows you to leverage your vocabulary and innate naming
ability using words you enter or select in any context to:
|
| Feature
|
Benefit
|
Substitute Text
It's "Auto-Correct" on steriods.

|
For the first time you can rely on text substitutions as a property of your
computer rather than as a feature of a specific program or set of programs.
The investment in applying text substitutions now pays off across the entire
computing environment. You realize tangible improvements in productivity and
in the accuracy of your work. Learn More.

| Open Programs, Files, and Folders
|
Stop digging through nested folders and hierarchical menus to get what you already
know you want. Need to launch Microsoft EXCEL? Just enter and trigger the word "excel"
when the thought occurs to you. Need to open your folder that contains tax information?
Just enter and trigger the word "taxes" and the folder comes to you. Name all your most
frequently used programs, files, and folders, and have them available instantly!
|
| Navigate the Internet
|
Stop digging through browser bookmarks and history to find that web site address you want. Stop
typing in URLs. Need to get to the CNN web site? Just enter and trigger the word "cnn" when you
think of it and the web site comes to you. Name all your favorite web sites
and have them available instantly!
|
| Send E-mail
|
Give your most frequent correspondants an ActiveWord. When ever you want to send an email
just enter and trigger the ActiveWord. For example, enter and trigger "boss" to instantly create
a new E-mail message pre-addressed to your boss.
|
Open Window Settings
(Control Panels and
Special Objects)
|
Assign ActiveWords to Windows Control Panels and special services like My Network Places.
Need to change your display resolution? Just enter and trigger the word "display".
|
Scripting
(automate action sequences)
|
ActiveWords PLUS and ENTERPRISE include access to the ActiveWords Scripting Language.
Use the scripting language to create your own commands. Many of the free ActiveWord applications
rely on the scripting language to provide advanced services like automated web searches and time/date stamps.
Use these applications as examples and build your own ActiveWords.
