The Paragon QB Toolkit provides a number of features unavailable elsewhere
for building your own multimedia applications under QB45. While the library
is undeniably large, one must consider that it carries with it an elaborate
Icon Editor, Mouse Pointer Editor, and CaseTool, IN ADDITION to the demo
executable.
Fire up the demo, and take a look at the source distributed with it. Then
consider the last time you saw such graphics out of a 15k source file. Only
Paragon provides the CASE Technology to allow QB45 to continue to evolve as
a reasonable alternative to the bloated Visual Basic programming language.
Many of you have requested this library in response to the other systems
you've seen from us developed with it. Some of you are interested ONLY due
to the fact that it enables you to create third-party add-on applications
for the DarkStar environment. Still others want it because it provides a
degree of portability to DarkStar (PAN format files also operate over the
phone lines when used with the DarkStar BBS/CommLink environment). Whatever
your reasons, be it standalone applications or DarkStar-related application
development, the Paragon QB Toolkit should prove the tool you've been look-
ing for inasmuch as graphics support is concerned.
Best of luck with it. If you experience ANY difficulties whatsoever, I can
be reached at DarkStar CommCentral BBS at (501) 631-5976 (Fido @ 1:3823/10)
(DarkNet @ 2001:100/10). Updates will undoubtedly follow, and with enough
registered support, the package will likely have many additions over the
course of the years to come.
