CALAMUS UPGRADE: $69.95 IN JULY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Word from ISD's Nathan Potechin is that Calamus S, the modular
replacement for the current Calamus 1.09N, will be available as an
upgrade in July for $69.95 (U.S.). Watch Z*Net Newswire for the
announcement as to exactly when it is ready. Nathan continues to
encourage owners of the older versions to upgrade NOW to 1.09N ($29.95
from any older level) rather than to wait and pay the whole $100 to get
Calamus S. Calamus S contains every feature 1.09N has plus dozens of
new features and it is totally modular. You can choose to purchase
whatever additional modules you might require ie; the new vector line
art module for use within Calamus, PKS Write word processing module, a
paint module, etc. Nathan expects 2 dozen new modules for Calamus
before the end of this year. Other features of Calamus S include
working in up to 7 windows, 10,000th if a point text increments,
rotation of all graphics, anchoring a picture to a word, text style
attributes allowing global document restyle of tagged text, and lots
more. Calamus S is the monochrome version, SL is the 4-color separation
version. All modules (except color specific ones) will freely
interchange between S and SL, allowing most users to buy S now and
decide to move to WYSIWYG color in SL if and when they have the need.
DYNACADD TT DELAYED AGAIN FOR MORE FEATURES
Planned for release this week, the release of DynaCADD for the TT is
being delayed. A recompiled TT version that takes full advantage of the
TT's capabilities, DynaCADD TT features include: hidden line removal,
bi-directional 3D DXF, 3D faces, compatibility with ray tracing and
rendering packages on other platforms, etc. Says Nathan Potechin of
ISD, "We have held back the release of the TT version of DynaCADD for
ONE additional month. In addition to the long list of features already
added to the not yet released new TT version of DynaCADD, we have
decided to go even further. Now being added are: A Compiled Programming
Language, a fully integrated multi-document editor, configurable command
line interpreter, a script language and non-graphical properties. We
had initially thought to add these features later but finally decided to
do it all now. It will be worth the wait, of that I can assure you....
While 16 million colors aren't that relevant in CADD, we will run with
every configuration from VGA on up. We WILL USE the built-in math
coprocessor."
