Wingz and HyperScript Tools combine database access commands with powerful spreadsheet, charting and printing capabilities, with objects such as buttons, dialogs etc. The HyperScript language is very powerful and easy to learn and allows event-driven applications to be quickly put together. I confess a vested interest; we are strategic partners with Informix maintaining and developing the Wingz and Wingz Real Time products and adding Real Time capabilities to HyperScript Tools. Wingz and HST are available on a number of Unix platforms, Windows, MAC and OS/2. We also have a working port of Wingz running under Linux and are currently wondering whether there is sufficient interest to turn this into a commercial offering. If you have any further questions mail wingz@iisc.demon.co.uk. Phil
