Info World (May 6, 1991) has an article on Version 7 (Page 13) that describes the new features. According to Info World, it's supposed to be shipping by the end of the month (MAY). registered owners can upgrade for $49.00 (US) until July 31, and users of competing products are able to switch for $59.00 (US) until August 31. Some of the new features are: Windows Undelete which recovers deleted files, Windows Launcher, which starts any windows or DOS applications from a Windows like menu, Virus Protection utilities, a utility to fix corrupt Lotus 1-2-3 r3.1 and dBase files, a utility to permenantly erase files or complete disks, and a Comm program called Commute which lets users run DOS and Windows applications as well as do remote file transfers to other PCs. Commute supposedly works with LANs or direct connects, and includes a 2 machine license -- Jeff Troeger - Citicorp (+) TTI "Of all the things I've lost, 3100 Ocean Park Bl.
