Anybody remember the "illuminated" text series by robert able for IBM? I was the lead interface designer for the first prototype built around the poem "ulysses" (tennyson). I think i remember the programming done in toolbook though afterwords i purchaced supercard and reverse enginered it in less than week (my first programming!... Dont tell bob!). We churned through 1.5 million $ in less than a month. Lots of film and graphics. One of the first uses of video in a portal of window. I think much of the later works in this genre veered towards shovel-ware.

This looks just like what we are doing." If that's what he said then it would have been 1992. I programmed the Expanded Books during October and November 1991, and another programmer finished off a couple of features, ready for the release of the first three EBs at that MacWorld. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
