Kudos to Atlantis!

When I upgraded my computer and had a nice new hard disk, I made up my mind to NEVER have Word again!  So I began to search for a Word Processor - one I could understand and one that would perform as well as Word, without the aggravation!!  I downloaded several, and uninstalled them quickly - many software conflicts and some were just not good at all.  Then, along came Atlantis!  What a lifesaver -I love everything about it, and the big bonus is the great Customer Service that comes along with it!  Many thanks to the Staff of Atlantis for providing such a fine piece of software!<br><br>

Hi! One more happy Atlantis-user as it seems. Do you use it more for writing letters &nbsp;or what. I for myself find it a wonderful program for creating letters of all kinds.

I have persuaded a friend to purchase Ocean Mind and now we exchange emails as encrypted *.cod Atlantis files attached to blank emails. She would be intimidated by PGP, but is really enjoying using Atlantis as her "email client" - and I like thinking that Echelon might find it a bit harder to read my mail.

A bit harder? You are kidding! Nobody could crack COD files. Even Echelon, FBI, or CIA...<br>If they even had all the computers of the world...

Nobody could crack COD files.<br><br>That's what I like to hear. ;D <br>One query though - images inserted into files that are saved as COD don't seem to compress quite as well as when saved to rtf - is there a way around this?

[admin]

"COD Pictures" are stored in the compressed state too.<br><br>But... COD files cannot be compressed. Of course, you could try to compress it but your gain would be about 1%.<br>As you might know, only those files can be compressed which contain "spare" information.<br>COD files cannot be compressed because each byte of a COD file is very important. By losing a single byte of a COD file, you lose the entire COD file.

Thanks - I thought so. It's nice to know that my reading on cryptography had given me a correct understanding. <br>

Just upgraded to the latest version of Atlantis. &nbsp;I run Windows 98SE and Linux on a dual-boot system. &nbsp;I also own a copy of Microsoft Office 97 (academic discount). &nbsp;Although I'm sure I could find some things wrong with Atlantis, overall it's a great wp. &nbsp;Also, somehow, the update fixed my problem not being able to use my mouse's scroll feature. &nbsp;Before it didn't work; &nbsp;now it does work in Atlantis. &nbsp;Way to go guys. &nbsp;God job.
