With it you can easily index directories of files and search generated indexes. When you do a search, it’s swish program that is doing actual searching. Swish objective is to fill need of Web administrators on Internet. Swish is easy to use and simple. You can do many things such as stemming or searching for different versions of a word or use of synonyms. With it, you can do most of things that full-featured indexers and search programs can.

Are you in a busy office and need to get web design jobs with complex text effects done immediately? Want to speed up your productivity but avoid working until Saturday afternoons breaking up text and hand tweening? Then, SWiSH, new standalone tool that creates great font effects and more by David Mitchie, presented during Flash Forward 2000 conference, is for you!. So what’s new with SWiSH? This tool enables you to create buttons and banners in program itself. You can even create a .SWF for importing into Flash for fast font effects. The “more” emphasis earlier is what’s coming up in future of this product. Mitchie is hoping to release an update of its first version in May that will allow use of images. These plans for added functionality will give users more creativity in designing banners and navigation systems. There are also future plans being expressed by Mitchie to support many of features in Flash today – this includes scripting, movie clips, audio, vector images and rollover buttons. Right now, with first version, you can use its maximum number of text effects to hilt. It will also speed up work productivity. With SWiSH, you can say good bye to all afternoon of breaking text up, making key frames and hand tweening – plenty of hard work but is not anywhere near our idea of creativity. Use it by controlling all various attributes of each letter and click preview. After installing this software, in less than five minutes, you can produce real content for your sites. There may be arguments about how all effects just look alike but remember that there are “industry standard” and “professional level” considerations on these things, just like in television and print. Using SWiSH allows you to produce your sites with that level of standard and expertise.
