There is a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ) about Becasso.


Surgeon

Surgeon is an application to simplify creating and modifying Person files. In such, it is (very!) similar to the People application coming with the BeOS since PR2, but offers extra functionality over People.

In fact the lack of such a People application in PR1 was the very reason Surgeon was conceived. Surgeon is freeware and is available for download here.


Summon

Summon is a Tracker add-on which opens a Terminal with the current directory set to the directory displayed in the Tracker window it was called from. Summon is freeware and is available for download here.


TabletDriver

TabletDriver is an input_server add-on which enables the use of Wacom graphic tablets from the PenPartner and UltraPad series (serial versions only) and Graphire (serial and USB). It is included with Becasso and allows pressure-sensitive drawing.
