Method and Apparatus Integrating Navigation and Saving the Writable State of Applications
First Claim
1. A method, comprising the step of:
- responding to a navigation cue within an application by an window operating system directing at least one computer, further comprising the step of;
saving a writable state of said application using said window operating system directing said computer, further comprising the step of;
writing said writable state of said application to a non-volatile memory encapsulating enough of the state of said application that at least one view open at the time of writing may be reconstructed; and
directing said computer through the window operating system to perform the navigation task indicated by said navigation cue.

Abstract
The invention includes a computerized method responding to a navigation cue from a user by saving the writable state of the application and directing the computer through the window operating system to perform the navigation task 36 indicated by the navigation cue. The invention includes the following, which will each be discussed in turn. An alteration mechanism including means for altering window operating system by altering the hook triggered by each navigation cue to integrate saving the writable state. The window operating system integrating response to each navigation cue and saving the writable state. Source code artifacts which can be installed to implement navigation cues triggering saving the writable state. A business method generating revenue for a business entity.

10. The method of claim 12, wherein for at least one of the steps the method of using, further comprises at least one of the steps of the group consisting of the steps of:
-
installing said artifact on said computer; decompressing at least part of said artifact to create a decompressed content; building a directory structure populated at least in part by said decompressed content; compiling based upon the contents of said artifact to create a compiled result; assembling based upon at least one of said contents of said artifact and said compiled result to create an assembled result; compiling based upon at least one of said contents of said artifact, said compiled result, and said assembler result to create a linked result; using at least one of said directory structure, said decompressed content, said compiled result, said assembled result, and said link result to alter said window operating system; using at least one of said directory structure, said decompressed content, said compiled result, said assembled result, and said link result to create said window operating system; using at least one of said directory structure, said decompressed content, said compiled result, said assembled result, and said link result to alter said second of said window operating system; and using at least one of said directory structure, said decompressed content, said compiled result, said assembled result, and said link result to create said second of said window operating system. - View Dependent Claims (9)
