Unicode Text Editor
Nutshell has a built-in text editor, for quick jobs. The original intention was for a Rich Text editor, however, the editor was suspended after the 3rd BETA.
Instant Preview HTML Editor
Packaged with Nutshell is a simple Instant Preview HTML Editor. The editor does not feature a GUI.
Calendar
The built in calendar allows the user to choose a date and view appointments and schedules from a selected time.
User Login/Logout Protection for Projects
The software allows the project owner to add user accounts to projects, alongside project password protection. This was introduced as a security measure for FTP projects.
User Management Tool
The user management tool permits the user to manage a database of contacts. The tool also allows the user to set usernames and passwords, and to create other users.
FTP Loading/Saving
This feature allows the user to enter the URL of a project, and then download and use it. Projects that require password verification are not downloaded until passwords have been verified. The tool also allows the user to enter an FTP location and then save the project to that server.
Backup Maker
Included with the package is an easy to use Backup Maker, which allows the user to select the files to back up, and then back them up to nearly any location, including removable storage and FTP directories.
Automatic Update
The automatic update feature ensures the user always has the most up to date version of the software. Updating only takes a few seconds and is completely automatic.
File Packaging
Files may be imported into projects, and then even though they may not be read by Nutshell, they can be saved and exported with the project.
Readable File Formats
Nutshell can read many file formats including sound files and video files. If a file format is not recognised, Nutshell will querry the user whether to open the file using Windows Explorer. Nutshell can read the following file formats:
- HTML Documents
- Unicode Text Documents
- AVI Files
- WAV Files
