 Guidelines is a 32 bit Visual Application Development tool for OS/2 2.1
 that provides developers with a powerful graphical way to interactively
 design and implement OS/2 Presentation Manager GUI applications.

 It offers an application development environment that eliminates much of 
 the drudgery of traditional approaches to GUI based applications. While 
 it still requires an existing Toolkit and compiler, it allows the 
 programmer to concentrate on functionality, by generating and managing 
 all the source files necessary to build a GUI application, including 
 header files, resource scripts, make files, module definition files etc.


 It has the following key features:

 - Generates attractive, commented C++ code

 - Provides a complete IDE for applications development

 - Supports multi-threading and non GUI applications, as EXEs and DLLs.

 - Available as a series of packs, so is tailorable to needs and budget

 - Support for all CUA '91 controls

 - Range of additional specialised custom controls available including

    - Tool, Button and Status bars
    - Animated Picture controls
    - Gauges
    - Color Wheel

 - Creates & manages all files required - CPP, RC, IPF, MSG, MAK, LNK etc.

 - Import existing resources (RC, RES and DLG files)

 - Requires IBM CSet++ Compiler and OS/2 2.x Toolkit.

 - Professional icon library

 - Available now

 Full support is available on CompuServe, in the OS2AVEN forum, Section 1.
