Synopsis is a rapid application prototyping tool for designing and developing Windows applications. Software components are represented by graphical icons that can be quickly connected to build even complex programs. Base components cover various application areas including user interface, multimedia, file I/O, etc. You can connect to your own DLLs and SQL databases to reuse existing software tools. Synopsis allows for real-time programming where changes can be made while a program is running. This allows for instantaneous feedback without the need to leave the development environment. Control external Windows applications with macro commands. Communicate with external devices using serial port interfaces. Build executables (.EXEs). Benefits of Synopsis: * Complete visual methodology for assembling software applications and prototypes * Ease of use translates into short learning ramp-up times * Make changes easily to your program without the need to rebuild low-level software components: this translates into much faster development cycles * Real-time programming: modify the behaviour of your program while it is running Runs on Windows 98/2000/2003/XP.
