[comp.windows.x] Need information on VEM Graphics Editor Tool, U of Cal, Berkeley

JOHNSTON%NRCMTC.NRC.CA@VM.NRC.CA (Dan Johnston) (12/05/90)

The Oct. 90 IEEE MICRO Magazine (pp 28-45) had a very nice
article where the VEM graphics editor was used to build a higher
level `graphical interface'.  Reference 10 of this article
pointed to a Prof. D. Harrison at the University of California,
Berkeley.  Telephone calls lead we through several switchboards
and eventually to an answering machine (Prof. Harrison is on
sabatical).  A search by our library could find nothing more
about VEM.

I too would like to build a graphical interface (to manufacturing
control software) and VEM looks like a tool that could help.
Does anyone know where I can get more information on this
software? Is other documentation or sources available? Are any of
the developers on line?

Thanks for any help.  P.S. As a new subscriber to XPERT I'm not
sure where the archives are kept so I cannot search them first.
