The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Inside Norton Navigator':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
This is a reasonably competent replacement for the Norton Navigator (for Windows 95) documentation. The text is as readable as any other piece of computer documentation, and the text instructions are clear enough. There are a great many screen shot illustrations, but, as with most documentation for GUI programs, the single static screen shots do not give much of an idea of the sequence of moves to be made. Since Norton Navigator is an aid to the use of Windows 95 (itself, supposedly, a "user-friendly" system), the need for such a keystroke level guide is questionable. There are some "shortcuts" listed within the text, but they aren't really useful. The book tends to oversell the product and then not deliver. As one example, the cover hypes the use of long filenames with old (pre-Win95) applications. The table of contents does not list such an operation: the index lists "long filenames". One of the pages hardly mentions it, while the other finally tells you that this is supported under LFN. Back to the index, where you finally are told where in Norton Navigator to turn on the function. That is *all* you are told, however. There is not the slightest mention of how this might work. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1996
