A-Flow - Software Applications Visual Designer. Version 3.10

STATUS             : SHAREWARE
DISTRUBUTION STATUS: FREELY DISTRIBUTABLE

A-Flow is an easy-to-use and powerful general-purpose software development and
authoring tool suitable for creating a wide range of Windows(TM) applications,
which comprises, but is not confined to:

* Presentation and multimedia applications.
* Computer-based training and testing applications.
* Dynamic gaming applications (such as "brick" game).
* Interactive database applications.
* System utilities, shells and integrated end-user environments.
* And many others...

A-Flow completely visualizes applications under development. You do not write
application code but rather draw it by using a point-and-click approach.

A-Flow also provides interoperability with other software, even when developed
by other means and running under other operating platforms in a distributed
computing environment.

The result from using A-Flow are freely distributable standalone Windows
applications, which may run outside the A-Flow development environment.

A-Flow is itself a native 32-bit Windows application.
