[comp.sys.apple2] CoPilot

STEIN@UCONNVM.BITNET (Alan Stein) (12/05/90)

A2-Central lists CoPilot as a "GEnie interface for IIGS."  However, it
requires Talk is Cheap or Point to Point, which I understand to be
compatible with any Apple II.  Does Copilot take advantage of the
IIGS?  What's the advantage of Copilot over GEnie Master?

CoPilot is a native Apple IIgs program that uses the 640 SHR mode with a 
menu bar, windows, dialogs etc. Just everything you expect from a native
Apple IIgs application. The newest Version, 1.4.3. requires System 5.0.3.
Just when it comes to access GEnie, it uses Talk is Cheap or Point-to-Point
to run scripts for accessing GEnie. But all offline work such as writing 
replies, Selecting files to download, reading messages, are done in the
IIgs mode.

Hope that this helps.
