TERRY MORSE MYRMIDON QUOTES
The Mac Advantage #57
Apple Computer lists Terry Morse Myrmidon as a Macintosh advantage in software: "As a result, the Macintosh has gained a clear lead over PCs."
"Probably the simplest, most elegant and most clever utility we've ever seen. You can produce acceptable Web pages without reading a manual and without any customisation. It deserves to be a huge success." Macformat, 11/98
    "With Myrmidon, it's simply not necessary to understand what the actual HTML limits are, or indeed if there are any limits at all. At last, pure alchemy makes pure gold - for the rest of us." MacUser, 12/97
"Terry Morse Software's Myrmidon is an open ended solution to your Web publishing needs because it's simply a print driver that knows about HTML and graphics format conversion. Luckily, that's a lot like saying DaVinci was an inventor who happened to have a set of paints and some spare time." CMP Net 2/98
Marvellous Myrmidon!
"Could this be the big breakthrough Apple Macintosh have been waiting for? An ingenious program that could take Apple to the top of the tree and leave Windows '98 looking rather lame...It couldn't have come at a more opportune time for the American genius behind it. Terry Morse has got nothing at all to do with Apple, apart from providing them with a gem of a program, which will help them to sell lots more Macs." Micro Computer Mart, 1/99
"Myrmidon is one of the best kept secrets of the Mac software industry. It delivers on an idea so simple and "Macintosh" that I can't believe no one thought of it before. Myrmidon lets you turn documents into pages simply by printing them...For those who need to convert existing documents to the Web, Myrmidon is the most straightforward, elegant, and reliable solution I have found." ATPM 2/98
Winner: Steamed Crabb Mac OS Superstar Small Guys Awards
"The former president of Salient Software Inc. (DiskDoubler, AutoDoubler, and CopyDoubler) now has a new company and a new cool product -- Myrmidon. This baby does something so obvious -- automatically converting any Mac file to HTML using any print command and its Chooser extension -- you wonder why it wasn't invented sooner . Way cool." Don Crabb, MacWEEK, 9/21/96
"Myrmidon is perfect for quickly converting text to HTML, and it works directly with documents from a variety of sources, including Microsoft Word and ClarisWorks. Its big advantage over tools such as Home Page and PageMill is that it spots formatted text in the original and performs automatic conversion into HTML -- that means you don't have to scroll around the document to create headings, one at a time." MacADDICT, May 1997
"Myrmidon 2.1 is the latest version of this innovative utility program that can convert any printable page into a Web page. The program is now GoLive Systems' CyberStudio-aware, so that all text and graphics in a Myrmidon-created Web page appear on a layout grid in CyberStudio. Changes can be made to the page layout simply by dragging objects across the grid. This would make Myrmidon an essential tool for all CyberStudio users." The Kleper Report on Digital Publishing, 3/98
Winner: Cool Tool Best of 1997 Award
"Actually, we first gotta say that Myrmidon is probably one of the absolute best examples of virtuoso programming...Quark layouts, Word files, PowerPoint presentations-- whatever you can print, Myrmidon can put on the Web. Living its humble life as a chooser extension, Myrmidon makes Web publishing as easy as picking a printer. And the results--as close to perfection as it comes."
Cool Tool Awards 1997
Easiest Web Tool
Yeah, Web design tools are getting better all the time -- but none of them is as simple as Terry Morse Software's Myrmidon. How simple? Just select Print from within any application -- DTP software, word processor, graphics program -- and this printer driver cranks out the HTML code for a Web page that's practically identical to the documents you've created in the programs you're familiar with." Mac Home Journal, November 1996
"Myrmidon comes ready to create HTML documents. Just select the HTML option in the Page Setup dialog box and choose the application's Print command. Instead of printing to paper, an HTML document outputs to your disk and includes styles, lists, a hyperlinked table of contents and graphics tags linked to saved GIF files." MacWEEK 10/7/96
