Geneva is a copyrighted program of Gribnif Software.


This is the second in a seres of screen shots of Gribnif 
Software's multitasker, Geneva, taken from an ST 
high-resolution display.


1. TEAROFFS

Geneva allows any GEM menu to be torn off the menu bar and 
placed anywhere on the screen. These menus appear in their own 
GEM window, and are updated just as they would be if they were 
still in the GEM menu bar. This shot shows NeoDesk menus 
floating on the display.


2. MANYAPPS

Geneva can run virtually any number of applications at the same 
time. The limit is academic, since it is in the range of 
30,000; you will run out of memory before Geneva runs out of 
applications it can run simultaneously. This shows Atari Works 
running with other applications under NeoDesk. The financial 
application is Personal Finance Manager.


4. ULTHRES1

Geneva lets the user set a smaller (or even larger) size for 
the font that is used for GEM menus and dialogs. This reduces 
both the type size and the window size of many GEM 
applications. Some older applications do not cooperate with 
this technique, but many do. This shows Atari Works in this 
ultra-high-resolution display, with tear-off menus. Note that 
this was taken from an ST monochrome display, in ST high 
resolution. No special graphics card or other software is 
needed to produce this display under Geneva.

4. ULTHRES2

The second ultra-high-resolution shot shows Geneva's Help 
window. Geneva's Help menu contains a hypertext help engine; a 
double-click on an underlined topic within any text brings you 
straight to that topic. The Help window can be resized, and 
Help can be running along with any other multitasking
application.
