Zion Software & Consulting ships ZionDECView - Palettized Terminal Emulation
Glastonbury, Conn., September 8, 1994 - Zion Software & Consulting
announced the release of ZionDECView, MAB terminal emulation palette
and objectware for applications needing VT100/VT102 and ANSI Color
terminal support.
Summary: Zion's ZionDECView.palette, libZionDECView.a, and associated
files provide the building blocks for any custom or commercial
NEXTSTEP applications utilizing either VT100/VT102 or ANSI terminal
emulation. Whether the application needs a command line interface
in addition to the NEXTSTEP GUI, or the application is an intermediate
step while moving legacy applications to a Client/Server (NEXTSTEP)
environment, Zion's palettized terminal emulation objectware will
fit the bill. You don't have to throw away your valuable data and
supporting mainframe or mini software just because your company is
migrating towards client/server. With objectware such as Zion's
ZionDECView, your developers can begin building custom terminal
based software in a GUI environment, or allow existing software to
be accessed from your NEXTSTEP environment. Why redevelop and debug
terminal emulation code when your application can take advantage
of Zion's efforts within minutes?
