Hi Bill:
I am glad to hear that you are using Benchmark Modula-2! I will now try to
answer the questions you have posed in your msg. I plan to release additional
tools for use with Benchmark Modula-2 in the future and I am sure there will be
additional tools from other vendors which will support Benchmark. Currently
there are several third party products which work with Benchmark: PowerWindows
2.5, InovaTools 1, MetaScope, LDebug, AREXX… From Avant-Garde Software:
Simplified Amiga Library, C Language Library, IFF & Image Resource Library.
The Simplified Amiga Library implements the modules which you are interested in
Console, Menus, Gadgets, etc. In addition the hundreds of demo programs which
come with the package have among them a color-requester module it's called
SetColors and is part of the Mondrian demo program. The only item that you
mentioned not found in the available modules is a DBase file reader, but this
probably has something to do with DBase not being available for the Amiga. I
do have a complete database development package which was ported from another
system, but after doing some preliminary market research I had to put in on the
shelf, due to a lack of market for such a product. I hope I have answered most
of your questions, but, if not I will be happy to try again :-).
