Athena Design Announces NEXTSTEP Spreadsheet: Mesa 1.5 with
Palettized Objects
Athena Design is pleased to announce that Mesa version 1.5 is now
available. Mesa 1.5 ships as a Multi-architecture ("fat") binary
for both NEXTSTEP for Intel Processors as well as NeXT computers
running NEXTSTEP 3.0 or higher.
Mesa was recently given a "Best of Breed" Award at the 1993
NeXTWORLD EXPO. Mesa's objects have been palettized to assist
custom programmers integrating Mesa into mission critical custom
applications.
Other new features included in Mesa 1.5:
The Query Inspector is new and radically improved. It allows
update, insert, delete and "raw SQL".
Added support for drag & drop tabular text type for
interoperability with DataPhile.
Mesa now supports underlining within cells within the Cell Style
Inspector.
Mesa now supports a database server adaptor. This will allow the
creation of addins that will link to SQL servers other than Sybase
(the built-in default).
Upgrades:
In keeping with Athena Design's policy of one year of upgrades for
Mesa, upgrades are available via anonymous ftp from the following
