Frequently Asked Questions
"What is WebLater?"
WebLater watches your Windows clipboard. Every time you copy a URL to the clipboard, WebLater makes a note of it. Later, when you are ready to follow that link, just pop up WebLater and pick it from the list!
"Does WebLater work with my applications?"
WebLater works with any standard Windows application. When you select text and copy it to the clipboard, WebLater is notified, and checks to see if that text is a URL. If it is, WebLater holds onto it for future reference."Does WebLater work with my web browser?"
WebLater will automatically detect most Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer versions. WebLater communicates with your web browser using Microsoft's "DDE" technology, or by launching a new browser if none is currently running."What operating systems does WebLater work with?"
Right now, there are two versions of WebLater: one for Windows 3.1 users, and one for all Windows 95 and Windows NT users."How do I follow my URLs now that I've got them?"
