For marketing purposes some sample databases with some screens would be good.
Especially in JHS and they would benefit J Databases as well as J in general. A tool in the direction of the J6 Form Editor showing how to link the browser with databases in J are of great interest. Some sample screens of how to do some input and some selections are what the doctor ordered. The samples could be as is and then I am sure there would be interest to explain them further through wiki pages, labs and demos. 2012/11/13 Björn Helgason <[email protected]> > Is the front end in JHS or GTK? > On Nov 2, 2012 2:04 PM, "Eric Iverson" <[email protected]> wrote: > >> My work with Vstar ended at the beginning of this year as we >> (Vectornova and Jsoftware) decided we could better pursue separate >> paths. >> >> My interest in a database based on J has only increased.
