FLYING MONKEY SOFTWARE ANNOUNCES THUMBNAIL 1.1: IMPROVEMENTS ON THE
BIT-PER-CHARACTER ASCII FILE VIEWER AND SEARCHER


WEST CHESTER, Ohio, December 14, 1994 -- Flying Monkey Software
announces ThumbNail 1.1, an upgrade to the application for NEXTSTEP
developers which provides a quick bit-per-character view of an ascii
file, including searching and highlighting, with direct access to the
NeXT Edit application.

It's faster. Display bugs are fixed. You can select the type of files
you want to ThumbNail. Better feedback is produced. The defaults are
cleaner. It's the simplest tool for tooling around in code at high
altitude, expecially with it's search, weed-out, and go straight to
Edit mechanisms.

  ThumbNail 1.1, high-altitude ascii file browsing  $35.00

Free electronic upgrades.
Media and shipping cost for diskette upgrades.

(Those of you who net-ordered ThumbNail 1.0 will be getting your
upgrades today! - If you diskette-ordered, you'll hear by email...)
