Style provides traversal functions that selectively navigate through the database of objects and perform operations on those objects. The operations performed by traversal functions can be Style's pre-written functions or can be defined by the programmer. Traversal functions separate the task of locating objects from the task of performing operations on objects. Because the operation is separate from the structure of the application, a programmer can easily port traversal functions between applications.

The suggested retail price of Style starts, at $250; it is available directly from Software Ingenuities or through authorized dealers. Style supports Borland and Zortech C++. A UNIX version is also available.

ASCWINDOWS is a windows application development system for character based terminals connected to a UNIX-based system. The toolbox allows for creation of windowing standards like windows, dialog boxes, pull-down menus, list boxes, edit boxes, mode selectors, etc. Applications developed around ASCWINDOWS are event driven. ASCWINDOWS comes with a runtime library, a resource compiler, and a keyboard compiler. Application resources are defined using resource definition language. ASCWINDOWS features default window procedures, that can be defined by the user, accelerator keys for faster input processing, user configurable virtual keys for application customization, easy internationalization of applications, standard user interfaces across platforms, and simple naming conventions. ASCWINDOWS applications are terminal independent. They are portable to other systems, without modifying the source.
