Hi, I need an XWindows 4GL or screen-painter or forms package that runs on a UN*X workstation and works with SQL and C or COBOL. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance..

Try JAM from Jyacc. They have a good demo that is free. I don't have the number handy, but they are in New York, New York. JAM is more than a forms package, but you may still like it. They handle all front end processing for you. fredb.

I believe that JAM does windowing on ordinary character terminals, but has no active support for X Windows (ie, you can use it in an "xterm" window, but it cannot open a window of its own or use the X Windows facilities). -- Robert Claeson E-mail: rclaeson@erbe.se ERBE DATA AB

Hi ! For X-Windows Screen painters you can contact: ISA Informationssysteme fuer computerintegrierte Automatisierung GmbH Azenbergerstrasse 35 D-7000 Stuttgart 1 Tel: (0711)22769-0 Fax: (0711)22769-19 Net: info@isaak.uucp They have a product called 'Dialog Manager'. Looks pretty fine, has interfaces to C, Pascal, Fortran, Cobol, Basic. If you want to talk to a DBMS, you have to code your own procedures, called from within the dialog runtime. NSL Non Standard Logics 57-59, Rue Lhomond 75005 Paris France Tel: (33-1)43367750 Telex: 206 044 F NSL Net: They are on the net, I just lost the address. If anybody knows, *PLEASE* tell me. Their product is called Graffiti, the user interface builder. Same structure as Dialog Manager. NSL also offers a *VERY* nice 'Iconic User Shell' for X, called WISh. Forget what you've seen on AMIGA, ATARI, OS/2 or DOS(boo), WISh is great. An X-based editor, called WX is also available. WX uses most of the GNU Emacs key bindings, if you don't work with it's pulldowns. If you get more info on other products, pleas drop me note.

They handle all front end processing for you. Did they release an X-Windows version in the meantime? Would be great. I've got some docs and a demo disk a year ago, but at this time no X support was even announced. -- This does not reflect the | Johann Schweigl | DOS? opinions of my employer. | johnny@edvvie.at | Kind of complicated I am busy enough by talking | | bootstrap loader ... about my own ... | EDVG Vienna |
