ORCHIS is a flexible and powerful tool for creating organizational charts on PC compatible computers running under DOS. Not only organizations of people, but any tree-like hierarchy can be represented by such a chart: menu structures, decision trees, sentence parsings, and so forth.
ORCHIS employs an intuitive graphical user interface throughout. You specify text and properties for each chart element using simple data entry forms. You create links graphically using a WYSIWYG chart display. The layout of the chart is done automatically by ORCHIS. When you add to the chart, or change the text, properties, or linkages, ORCHIS will instantly redraw the chart to your new specifications.
ORCHIS supports horizontal, vertical, and double column chart types, mixed types in one tree, multiple trees in one chart, assistant nodes, drop shadows, chart titles, and much more. Properties (including type face, type size, color, and line weight) can be controlled for the entire chart, for one branch or level, for an individual box, or even for a single line of text. ORCHIS also provides WYSIWYG display, background printing, scalable fonts, and complete on-line documentation.
ORCHIS supports hardcopy output via LaserJet, DeskJet, PostScript, and dot matrix printers, and graphical file output in the PDL, PCX, and EPS formats, so that charts from ORCHIS can be used in most word processors, publishing packages, and painting and drawing programs.
Note: Before running the program for the first time, you need to setup your printer by typing INSTALL.
