Does anyone have any info leading to the Kent Software Tools, one of whose authors is Mark Wheadon of the University of Kent at Canterbury? I was given a reference to these tools by someone who had seen them but did not know much more about them. -- Larry W.

The tools we currently market are: Ups - A graphical debugger for C and FORTRAN (you can even insert fragments of C into your code whilst debugging!) Fs - A graphical file system editor (especially useful when manipulating large/complicated file trees) Vdiff - A graphical file differencer (shows the two files side-by-side, and allows you browse the annotated differences) Vf - An intelligent file browser (shows bitmaps as bitmaps, tar files as a tar tv listing, directories, object files, .... and text. Sold in conjunction with fs) Guide - A hypertext system (can handle a mixture of pictures and text - a very rich set of capabilities) Rtp - A real-time execution profiler (shows where the time is being spent whilst the code is running). Prices are very low for academic institutions, somewhat higher (but still reasonable) for companies etc. The tools run on a variety of UNIX platforms using X11, and on Sun3/4/386 under X11 or SunView.
