UR as an e-Book maker
It would be fine to incorporate e-book making capability into UltraRecall. Other PIMs and content management programs do this and it is quite interesting, among them we can count MyBase, TreeDBNotes and others. I know I can send or distribute an urd file to other people that don't have UR installed on their machines but they have to install UR Viewer in order to be able to open it. Many are reluctant about installing a program on their machines just to see a file. The e-book that MyBase creates are auto- executables and donīt need any viewer. Those e-books recreate exactly the whole tree in the database, or any level as you can select which brand (node) to convert into an executable. They are also read-only as many e-books are and some are password-protected. An UR e-book is not only interesting for distributing materials to others, it is also useful for the UR licensed user him/herself as he/she can use the e-book as a read-only InfoItem of an UR database (could be great if keyworded.)
Is this to difficult to implement or can we have any hope on this?
