Despite its legendary effectiveness, Magellan was not particularly successful in the marketplace, likely due to the smallish hard drives of the era, and today is generally forgotten. Operation Running under DOS, Magellan would scan the directories and files on a drive or floppy diskettes and create a master index. It was aware of all the various current formats and provided the ability to view files without launching the original applications that created them. Its most powerful feature was fuzzy searching, that connected files by relative frequency of keywords, allowing the user to organize related data no matter where or in what format it existed on the user s computer. Given this semantic view of the user s file system, Magellan not only exposed hidden meaning from disparate data, but also facilitated the actual movement of files and directories into a better physical organization. Advertisements that ran for Magellan at the time promised to Get all your ducks in a row and showed a picture of a line of obedient rubber ducks . Fate Magellan was one of several significant developments from Lotus Software i.e. 1 2 3 , Notes and office software for the Apple Macintosh that, despite significant usefulness and market share, failed to keep the company from becoming another brilliant also ran.
