Personally, I am working with a very large file containing 45,000 people in 16,000 families and 1,200,000 words in notes. I am accepting comments, suggestions and reports of problems from other users. It's a sophisticated and efficient object-oriented integrated development environment. The program is written in REALbasic (now relabeled Xojo). (The footnotes will be included at the end of the printed notes in the generated reports.)Ĭlick here to read more about why PAWriter was developed. It is in these notes that source citations are referenced through footnotes inserted at the appropriate points in the notes' text, as is normally done in books. For this purpose, the notes should contain all of the evidence, substantiation, documentation, background information, clarification, interpretation and/or other relevant commentary. Importantly, the use of PAWriter differs from other programs in that each statement given in a person's vital statistics should be based on the evidence given or referenced in the notes for that person and/or for his or her relatives, and should represent the researcher's best current conclusions as to the true facts. The emphasis is on maintaining a genealogical database from which the user can write books and/or post web pages about a family. Selections include inclusion (+), exclusion (-) and intersection (*) of the set of people meeting the criteria with those already tagged.Ĭonsider PAWriter to be a possible next step in the development of Macintosh PAF had its develpment not been discontinued after release 2.3.1, i.e., "what might have been." PAWriter is not meant to have the bells and whistles that are in the current crop of genealogical programs. PAWriter also provides flexible selection of subsets of people in a file by "tagging" them (marking them as members of the subset) using a host of selection criteria. The generated report files include genealogical dictionaries, registers, ahnentafels and lineagessuch as appear on this siteas well as some relevant text files and pedigree charts. It combines most of the features of the LDS Personal Ancestral File program (PAF) for the Macintosh (for which all development stopped a few years ago after release 2.3.1), with additional features that generate web pages (in HTML) and word processing and desktop publishing files (in RTF for Pages, Nisus Writer Pro, Word and other such applications).
