[comp.sys.mac] Please help me find Xiphias!

KOFOID@cc.utah.edu (05/02/90)

On p.16 of the Fall, 1989 issue of APDALog, Danny Goodman enigmately makes
the following reference:

"To keep the data in the stack, you need to emply search externals like
Xsearch (Xiphias) and [...other stuff]".

No address, no phone. Aside from this reference, I've never heard of
Xiphias but would very much like to contact them about this product. If
you can help me, I would appreciate it.

    Cheers,

        Eric .
