- (Update and revision package)
-
- The Window BOSS is one of the most powerful and
- cost-effective products available to enhance and accelerate
- the development of system and applications programs in the
- "C" language. The BOSS will let you create programs that
- have the same look and feel as top sellers like Lotus 1-2-3,
- Sidekick, dBASE III, and Framework! Pop-up windows, pull
- down menus, status lines, and in context on- line help
- functions can be easily implemented. Your applications can
- drag windows around the screen and automatically sense the
- type of video card installed. All of this without snow,
- flicker, or delay!
-
- The BOSS's assistant, The Data Clerk, is always on call to
- handle the tasks associated with data entry. The Data Clerk
- makes it a snap to enter text, integers, floats, longs,
- dates, phone numbers, and times. It is equally easy to
- create complex forms with individual field help and error
- messages. Custom fields and masks are also a snap!
- Naturally, we concentrated on the programmer interface,
- keeping it clean, uncluttered, powerful, fast, and easy to
- remember.
-
- Our Mouse routines provide the icing on the cake! Once the
- mouse has been initialized, you can show it, hide it, move
- it, check to see if any of its buttons have been pressed or
- released, make it emulate a light pen, put an invisible cage
- around it, define it shape and associated attributes, and ask
- it how many buttons it has!

- Tim Parker's column in the February 87 issue of Computer
- Language stated "the ease of use will cause some programmers
- to go overboard with windows", and "if you are a die-hard C
- programmer looking for a useful, license-free product, this
- is it".
-
- Hardin Bothers' column in the June 88 issue of PC Resource
- stated "Within its domain, The Window BOSS is as useful and
- as powerful as any C library I've used". "The Window BOSS
- owes much of its power to its uncluttered organization.
- Although the product supports five C Compilers - Microsoft C,
- Lattice C, Borland's Turbo C, Computer Innovations CI86, and
- Datalight C - it does it with a minmum of fuss." Post review
- note from the author - The BOSS now also supports Mix Power
- C, Aztec C, Zortech, and Watcom C!!
-
- In 1989 The Window BOSS achived membership in the TOP 50
- Shareware Programs offerd by PC-SIG!! (Shareware Magazine -
- January 1990)
-
- The BOSS is currently being used by such notables as IBM,
- ATT, UNISYS, Cray Research, ATT Bell Labs, Lockheed, Zenith,
- Jet Propulsion Lab, Internal Revenue Service, US Navy, US
- Airforce, NASA, Honeywell, Liton, UpJohn, Hughes Aircraft,
