[ge-talk] help SW

[Paul van Nugteren]

Hi, I have this idea in my head for a long time. What haiku should
really have in the future; a 'show me' -help feature, it should work
like this; you have a 1) a video or 2) a script which takes over your
mouse and keyboard for a while

1) would show you in a seperate window a desktop/window with the app you
want to know more about, the cursor goes, text balloons pop up etc. but
all in video

SW which can do this on Windows:
http://www.more-great-software.com/instantdemo.html found it on this
page; http://www.powergrep.com/demo.html

While this is great, a scripted program which would literally take your
mouse and keyboard combined with text balloons, sound, like 2) would be
a real killer to give a quick start / demo / help etc. for new
SW/apps/settings etc.
