Using the program
Selecting
the user interface language
You can select the user interface language by selecting
the item 'Language' from the main menu. Select your favorite language
from the drop down menu. Currently, these languages are supported:
English (default), Slovenian, Afrikaans,
Catalan, Dutch, French, Russian,
Spannish, and Turkish.
To add your own language to the program please use the
'Language' menu item and select 'Add your language online'. A web page
will open where you will be able to translate all the expressions from
the program to your language. Your translation will be aded to the
next version of the program nad you will be notified every time a new
version will appear to update the translation.
Creating the
index file
The program creates a HTML file which
includes the links to all files in the folders or subfolders you
selected.
- Select the folder in which the files are.
- If you want your HTML file to include the path to your files
(e.g. for a CD-ROM), check the ''Full path'' check box.
- If you want your HTML file include a link to all the files in
the subfolders, check the ''Include subfolders'' check box.
- If you don't want the program to search for HTML title in the
html files and want to use the filename instead check the "Ignore
titles, use filename" check box.
- If you want to save local index (that points to files on a
hard disk, i.e. add file:/// to the file name) check the "Create local
index" check box.
- You can select custom background image for your index file.
Check the "Background image" check box and the standard Windows open
file dialog will appear. Select an image from current folder and click
"OK" or "Open". If you select an image from a different folder be sure
to copy it to the folder where you saved the index.
- Click on the ''Add links to HTML'' button. You can delete one
line by selecting it and pressing the ''Delete'' button on your
keyboard.
- Click on ''Finish & Save'' button to save the contents of
the created index file. A standard Windows dialog will open prompting
you to enter a valid file name for the index.
- When an index is saved you can view the index instantly by
clicking the 'View index' button. The button is disabled in the process
of creating the index and after clearing the index contents.
- If you changed your mind or just want to create another index
file click on the ''Clear'' button and start over from point 1.

How can I help?
- Spread the word about the program.
- If you know someone who might need such a program, send them
the link to the programs web site at
http://www.mihov.com/eng/im.html and suggest them to download the
program.
- If you know a publisher of a computer magazine or if you are
one, suggest publishing a review of the program in the magazine.
- To save my time, more experienced users can help users who
encounter problems. Log into the forum at http://forum.mihov.com and try to
answer some questions. This way you will be known as an 'expert' and
you will feel good that you can help someone who needs help.
- Send me a postcard and tell me that you appreciate what I do
(you can get my address here
). You can also send me a real letter and add your picture in there! But
please don't send me e-cards or e-mails since my mailbox is already
full all the time - if you want to say thanks on-line, use the forum.
- Try to persuade me that developing freeware will help me buy my
own appartment and donate
a few Dollars for a beer.
- Translate the program!
If your language is not already included with this version of the
program go to the Translation Centre
and add your translation of the program. I will include your name in the
program!
