Topic: CodeWarrior for Red Hat Linux
Presented by: Rick Grehan (rgrehan at top.monad.net) and Tom Thompson

When: 19 May 1999, Wednesday
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Where: MIT Building 3-133 [Mass. Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA]


Rick Grehan will be joined by Tom Thompson, also of Metrowerks. Tom and
Rick will bring a laptop outfitted with RH Linux 5.2, and running the
latest version of Metrowerks CodeWarrior for Red Hat Linux. We'll show the
CodeWarrior Integrated Development Environment, which provides visual
development of C/C++ applications. (The CodeWarrior IDE runs in X
Windows.) 

We'll have a sample application that we'll use to illustrate the
capabilities of the integrated editor, search engine. We'll also show the
IDE's project management features, and run through some compiles to
demonstrate how the IDE automates builds, handles file dependencies, etc. 

Of course, they'll be happy to answer any questions about the product, as
well as questions regarding future CodeWarrior products for Linux and any
other Metrowerks products that people are interested in.

The Boston Linux & Unix Group [BLU.ORG], is the successor to the Boston
Computer Society's Linux & Unix User Group. We want to promote the
awareness and use of Open Systems, and to educate the public and our
members about Open Systems.

Linux is a UNIX-like operating system built around POSIX standards.
>From its inception less than eight years ago, it was developed over the
Internet by a group of people who (for the most part) have never seen
each other, and now runs on over (estimated) 4,000,000 computer systems.
The operating system (and the source code for it) is free to anyone
who wants it. It has been ported to at least the following platforms:
Intel, SPARC, Alpha, MIPS, PPC, and M68K. This is probably the largest
development project ever accomplished using the Internet.
