Macintosh. Pro Fortran is a complete development toolset which includes:
F90 compiler, upgraded VAX compatible F77, and Plum Hall validated C/C++
compilers. All compilers utilize a common development environment, tools
and user interface (individual compiler interfaces are also included).
Selected source file will automatically invoke the proper compiler, and
linker will include proper libraries. All languages are link compatible and
mixed language applications can easily be created.
Absoft's primary focus remains on Fortran compilers. The new F90 compiler
is the first available for Power Macintosh. The upgraded F77, designed for
porting legacy workstation code to the desktop now includes LS F77
extensions. New compile and runtime options allow byte swapping for porting
code to/from Intel. The C/C++ compilers are included for those wishing
mixed language development in a single environment.

from:
http://www.wordservices.org/Developers/
Word Services allows any application to link to a speller, grammar checker
or other text service as if it is a built-in menu item. It is a public
protocol - no license fee or non-disclosure is required to use it.
Once a user has a service application, it may be shared among all their
Word Services client applications, so the user needs only one dictionary.
Also, the user can obtain services in various languages from several
vendors and add them to each Word Services client application.
It is used, for example, by Qualcomm's Eudora Pro to link to Working
Software's Spellswell 7.
The SDK includes the complete protocol specification, tutorial documents,
and the source code to Writeswell Jr., a simple Word Services word
processor. Also available from the Web page is the source to WSI

release Windows 95/NT version of SmalltalkAgents in Q1 of 1997. This will
make SmalltalkAgents a cross-platform development tool of choice.
SmalltalkAgents is a dynamic, integrated development environment based on
QKS Smalltalk. In the process of developing a Windows version, QKS made
number of enhancements in its virtual machine to improve performance and
services.
SmalltalkAgents is known for providing close integration to the host OS
functionality. Its Mac version makes toolbox routines a trivial task. Its
Windows 95/NT version will bring the same functionality to developers.
SmalltalkAgents also allows developer to integrate their resources written

interface and windowing system for the next generation of Macintosh
operating system is talking place on the GX dev mailing list and the
AIMED-talk mailing list [see sig for subscription info].
Background:
Apple Computer's attempts to create a transitional operating system have
failed, at least partly due to a lack of a pre-emptive multitasking-enabled
graphical user interface and windowing system in their transitional OS
design.
The design of Apple's original graphics library [QuickDraw] didn't allow
for a simple transition to PMT, and the shipment date for their
transitional OS slipped beyond commercial viability. To make matters worse,
former management didn't have a fully-PMT GUI waiting in the wings, so now
Apple is without a transitional OS *or* a full-featured OS.
Fortunately, Apple has available the most powerful 2D graphs library...</div></div></span>
