MacUser Utility of the Year 1996 and America Online's Mac Utility 1996 Shareware Award Winner and Shareware Junkies Mac Program of the Year 1997 *MacOS 8 compatible! **Full Drag & Drop compatibility! ***Use up to 100 independent clipboards! ****New pop-up palette function! One of the early wonders of the Mac was its revolutionary ability to do copy and paste across various applications. Unlike other areas in the Mac's system software that have changed and progressed over the years, copying and pasting has not evolved. How many times have you found yourself going back and forth copying in one application and pasting in a different application, wishing to yourself that you could copy 5-10 items at a time, then go to another application and paste each of these items. Now you can with a vengeance!

Previous versions merely enabled users to create the trees. This version now supports hard copy printing of the entire family tree and also creates an html file with links to every leaf in the tree. The user interface has also been enhanced. GenKey is a Java application; it can not only be used on Macintoshes, but can be used on other computers with Java Virtual Machines installed. This upload contains the GenKey application along with the Java source files and rudimentary documentation. The most current version of GenKey is generally available on the GenKey home page at http://www.math.uconn.edu/~stein/genkey.

Additional macros for formatting tables are also included.

Updated: May 1998 Author: Yves Pelletier Email: pelletier@kagi.com or ch865@freenet.carleton.ca WWW: http://www.kagi.com/pelletier Price (Shareware): $15 US Keywords: Physics teaching, sciences, geometrical optics, ray optics, mirrors, light, laser, reflection, normal. Program description: YP Reflection is designed to assist teachers and students when they study the laws of reflection in geometrical optics. The program provides the user with a laser source that can be moved and rotated, and with a large quantity of mirrors that can be moved and rotated. The normal to the mirror, the angle of incidence, the angle of reflection and the direction of propagation are displayed. The obtained diagram may be printed, copied to the clipboard, or saved as a PICT file. Bugs fixed in this version: - Older versions required too much RAM when they were used on big screens (larger than 15 inches). This bug has been fixed.
