MINDVISION SHIPS INSTALLER VISE 6.5 FOR MACINTOSH
Simply powerful installers for OS 9

MindVision Software announces Installer VISE 6.5, an update to the
highly popular Macintosh installer solution. This version takes
advantage of the latest Macintosh technologies and is available for
download at http://www.mindvision.com/ivisemac.

"MindVision has been committed to the Macintosh platform since day one,"
said MindVision CEO Steve Kiene. "Installer VISE 6.5 shows our continued
commitment with support for OS 9. Developers can trust Installer VISE to
deliver their software on the latest Mac OS releases."

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 6.5?

Installer VISE 6.5 brings powerful new features for delivering software
on Mac OS 9. Version 6.5 offers:

Support for OS 9 Application Packages

Application packages keep an application and all its required support
files together. Because they appear in a single folder, application
packages also simplify the user's experience. Installer VISE makes it
easy to create and install application packages on OS 9.

Support for OS 9 Multiple User Accounts

Multiple User Accounts can prevent users from installing software where
they shouldn't. Installer VISE now supports this security feature with
every installer that you build. On a system that uses Multiple Users
Accounts, the Finder will return an error if the user tries to install
files without the proper privileges.

Uses OS 9 Install Locations

Installer VISE can install software into OS 9 locations, so your
software can take advantage of the latest technologies. Folders
introduced in OS 9 now appear in the "Install To:" popup menu.

Gestalts for OS 9, G4 Processor

Now you can check a system for OS 9 and/or a G4 processor before you
install software. Installer VISE lets you assign these and other
Gestalt checks to any install item in your archive.

Run custom code during uninstall

Installer VISE 6.5 can call your custom code when it installs or
uninstalls an item. The previous version could only call custom code
when it installed an item.

Support for Apple's Disk Copy for building installers to disk images

Installer VISE now calls on Apple's Disk Copy to build standard disk
images. These images can be 800K and larger.

Load Contextual Menus without restart

Installer VISE can help your customers start using your software as
soon as it's installed. Installers built with version 6.5 can
automatically load Contextual Menus after installing them, and not
require a restart.

Synchronize file dates at build time

Now you can synchronize file dates at build time, according to the
target used. You can specify which files to synchronize and the dates
the installer will use.

Easily install text encoding converters

You can install text encoding converters without having to write
external code. Just add them to the archive as you would any other
item. At install time, Installer VISE will automatically keep your
converter files in compliance with required converter documents.

Macromedia, Metrowerks, id, AOL, Symantec, Dantz, Intuit, Kodak,
MacSoft, Netscape, Connectix, and thousands of other software
companies. They didn't all start with it, but they've come to rely on

produce Windows versions of their products. By offering installers for
both platforms, we eliminate the headache of using a cryptic, script-
based Windows installer.

for smaller Macintosh customers.

We care. We always have, and always will offer our installer tools for
free to shareware developers. We don't limit our offer to one year.
