/Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:0,0,0:0,0,0:1/IconAuthor uses a technique called Visual Programming,
or Symbolic Authoring. Visual Programming is the use of
"symbols" or /Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:255,0,0:0,0,0:1//Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:255,0,0:255,0,0:1/icons/Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:0,0,0:255,0,0:1//Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:0,0,0:0,0,0:1/ to represent the structure of an
application. The structure of the application is a /Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:255,0,0:0,0,0:1//Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:255,0,0:255,0,0:1/flowchart/Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:0,0,0:255,0,0:1//Tms Rmn:16:9:400:0:0:0,0,0:0,0,0:1/
with the icons used as building blocks.
With Visual Programming there is no code, no command
lines, and no syntax. You can run the program at any time
during development, with no compiling!
Visual Programming also separates the structure (the
flowchart) from the content of the application. The
content is the graphics,text,animation and video used in
the application. You can have a group working on each
part separately and they can be changed without
affecting each other.

intuitive interface. There are no commands and you don't
have to be a programmer. The ease of use is attained
without the loss of flexibility or power.

artists and courseware developers, as well as individual
developers, will attain high productivity. Productivity
gains include standarized course structures, reduced edit
time and no reprogramming. also, programs are developed
once and then customized through the use of variable
substitution in the content specification.
