AutoPilot
is a one-of-a-kind, you just have to see. There is absoutely nothing else
like it available for the BeOS. AutoPilot gives you 'Quick Access' to your
favorite and most often used Applications, Files, Folders, Works-In-Progress
and Schedules from any workspace, simply by moving the mouse - all through
a unique interface. It can even be your personal reminder, make backups
and more...
