HindSight Ltd.
this week announced the release of forumLynx 2.0 and searchLynx 2.0 with
new improvements that include a 400% increase in speed, expanded vocabulary
of remote commands, and several interface enhancements.


forumLynx enables the developer to set up and host online discussion
forums. The software features fast response times and message threads that
are easy to follow and understand.


Using password protected sysop commands, the administrator can add, delete
or rename forums, edit or delete messages, and reassign messages from one
forum to another. Admins can also create and update a “bad word” censorship
feature that prevents users from using profanity within the forums.


searchLynx enables users to place their image libraries on the Web using a
Web-based image catalog that allows researchers to search for specific
images. The software locates the images fitting the descriptions and
generates Web pages featuring thumbnails of the matching images.


forumLynx and searchLynx, which both utilize the Panorama database, retail
for $295 per license and require a Macintosh server with WebSTAR. For
additional information, visit the HindSight Ltd. Web site.
