- Product Description: An application server for the Macintosh(R) personal
- computer family that provides standard Macintosh user interface, printing and
- filing services to client applications running on remote computers.
-
- New Revision: Version 3.1
-
- Significance: MacWorkStation(TM) Version 3.1 provides host programmers with
- full access and control over windows, pull-down menus, dialog boxes and other
- features of the Macintosh user interface without requiring them to learn the
- traditional Macintosh programming environment. Host applications can now have
- the same look and feel as local Macintosh applications, while reducing host
- CPU resources and line traffic.
-
- Enhancements: -- Full RGB color support for all user interface objects (i.e.
- alerts,
- dialogs, windows, etc.).
-
- -- Presentation Layer Improvements, including error reporting to the remote
- application or local user.
-
- -- Improved robustness of the Director Toolbox, with capabilities to reduce
- line traffic, provide field-level editing, list sorting, pop-up and
- hierarchical menus, multiple fonts and styles and event lock/unlock.
-
- MacWorkStation utility programs, MWS Dialog Builder, MWS Event Handler and MWS
- Event Player aid in the design, prototyping and running of MacWorkStation
- applications. Additional MWS Communication Modules for 3270 communications
- will also be made available.
