BeWare Highlight: Reggae Suite

[Webmaster's Note: The product naming for BeatWare's applications will change for the Preview Release; Reggae will be called "BeatWare Writer", ReggaePaint will be called "BeatWare Paint", and ReggaeDraw will be called "BeatWare Draw".]

The Reggae Suite of products is all about enhancing your personal productivity -- and making the BeOS more than just a very cool operating system. Every operating system needs the basic tools for writing, painting, and drawing, and Reggae provides a clean and innovative approach to each of these applications. With ReggaeWrite, ReggaePaint and ReggaeDraw, you get products as innovative and cutting-edge as the BeOS itself.

ReggaeWrite

ReggaeWrite is a word processing application created with the personal user in mind. Whether you want to write a short note or a publication quality manuscript with multiple columns and wrap around full color images, ReggaeWrite has the features to help you get the job done quickly and easily. Since ReggaeWrite is a WYSIWYG program, you always know exactly what the final result will look like.

ReggaePaint

ReggaePaint is a painting application written to satisfy the artist in you. With the computer screen as your virtual canvas, you can create a colorful doodle or the next digital masterpiece using a complete palette of lines, shapes, forms and colors. Support for datatypes from John Watte and Be filter add-ons are included so you can extend ReggaePaint to your heart's content. Import pictures from friends or download and customize them at your leisure -- and don't forget to include them in your ReggaeWrite letters. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words.

ReggaeDraw

ReggaeDraw is a drawing application created to serve the needs of the vector-based designer. ReggaeDraw features a complete set of tools for drawing everything from straight lines to Bezier curves, and with infinite object depth and 24-bit color, you can create almost any drawing imaginable. As with ReggaePaint, you can include ReggaeDraw images in your ReggaeWrite files. Better yet, you can edit your drawings in ReggaeDraw or ReggaePaint, and have those changes reflected in your ReggaeWrite document in real time!
