This invention, a
system for managing GUI documents, uses a set of graphical elements provided with computers having a
graphical user interface operating system as presentation elements out of which can be made in a truly
wysiwyg (what-you-wee-is-what-you-get) interface, multiple single page
multimedia documents for presenting digital images, video, animations,
graphics, audio, and text in different
font faces, styles, and colors and implements functional equivalents of the
HTML href (
hyperlink) elements. A GUI
document management system can be the centerpiece around which a wide variety of
computer software applications can be made including collaborative document development systems, training and
learning management systems, and document webs comparable to the
World Wide Web. When used to develop document webs on
the internet, the webs developed are fully read-write, a long sought but never achieved goal of the
World Wide Web. GUI documents are also easier and faster to develop than
HTML documents.
