[comp.lang.modula2] SOLID WINDOWS

BR.MJC@forsythe.stanford.edu (Michael Carroll) (05/18/91)

There are a couple of packages called Solid Windows and Solid
Windows Professional for user interface design for Modula-2
programs.  They're from Solid Software in Cincinnati.

I have their promotional literature but have never seen a review
or talked to anyone who's used them.  If you have any experience
with them I'd appreciate hearing about it, either on the bulletin
board or via e-mail.  Thanks!

Hi Mark

 MB> I have the extended edition, and was wondering if anyone else got
 MB> theirs, and can't find the TSR portion of the TechKit?

Received mine yesterday. TST is if I recall correct in TS\EXAMPLES.

Regards Kaare

   I bought Solid Windows and don't like it.  At $150 it's overpriced and 
underpowered for what it is.  It's quick enough, but very incomplete in my 
viewpoint.  Another opinion, for what it's worth.  They do offer a 30 day 
trial period so don't be entirely dissueded from looking at it.
 
   V3...hmm...I still wish it was more V1-like.
   It's become too MS-like for my tastes even if it is higher quality work 
in its latest incarnation.
