- 10 AUGUST, 1995 ~~ Bellevue, WA ~~ Paradigm Systems Corporation is
- pleased to announce release 1.0 of its IndentPro(tm) System for NeXT,
- a three component system to provide an easy and flexible development
- environment for producing consistent-looking code, similar to that
- produced by the UNIX version of indent.
-
- Component one of the system features a robust Preferences.app bundle
- to allow developers to easily customize the look and feel of their
- code.
-
- The IndentPro preferences bundle allows reading and writing of profile
- files, as well as the ability to dynamically view sample or user
- defined code.
-
- The other two components of the system are key to facilitating the code
- standardization process.
-
- IndentPro provides some significant advantages over the UNIX version
- of indent. Some of those are:
-
- - Preserving and properly indenting Objective-C
- style comments.
- - Preserving private interface declaration indentations.
- - Preserving functionality associated with the '@'
- operator.
- - Preserving return statement functionality when
- evaluating expressions as your return values.
-
- IndentPro registers its services via the standard NEXTSTEP Services menu.
- IndentPro allows any applications which let the user select and edit ASCII
- text to standardize selected code via Services.
-
- The second is indentPro, a command line executable which replaces all uses
- of the UNIX version of indent. This allows command-line tasks, such as
- code repository check-in and check-out, to use indentPro.
-
-
- The IndentPro system is available for NeXT, Intel, Sun, and HP systems
- running NEXTSTEP 3.1 or greater.
-
- A fully functional demonstration version, including PostScript user's
- guide, is available beginning August 16, 1995 at:
-
- ftp://ftp.cs.orst.edu/pub/next/submissions/IndentPro_Pkgs.compressed
-
- This version will expire on 30 September, 1995.
-
- A single seat license may be obtained for US$50.
- Multiple seat license prices are negotiable.
-
- For licensing, please contact Paradigm Systems Corporation via email,
- fax, or telephone.
