- Clever Internet Suite 6.0. Paradise for VCL Network Programmer — Every professional Windows programmer knows the eternal dilemma: which library is to be used for the advanced networking? There is a number of OS-based APIs for different network tasks, but they are well-known for their uncoordinated and incomplete set. There are numerous third-party libraries, but you can hardly find a fully-functional and comprehensive one. Moreover, if you are VCL programmer, and your tool is Delphi or C++ Builder, your…
- VBto 2.30, Visual Basic No More — For its time, Visual Basic 6 was an excellent tool. It was easy to learn, write and read, had reasonably good visual forms designer, allowed easy usage of ActiveX controls… Unfortunately, those times have gone.

- JC&MB Quicknote 5.3, Concentrate on Content Rather than Form. — When you need to write something down — a brilliant idea or Web address, would you rather use a pencil and a sticky note or a computer and a text editor? I could bet you’d rather choose the first option in a great majority of cases, simply because it’s much easier and quicker to grab a pencil, write a note, and then stick it on a visible spot than launch a text editor…
- Dis# 3.1.1, Back To Sources — The great feature of bytecode-based languages, and, namely, .NET assemblies, is a possibility to «return to source code» at any time. Assembly decompilation is a great tool to understand «how something works», either some general algorithms and data structures, or internal logics of some software or components. Unfortunately, simple decompilation tools give a very poor result which is hard to read…
- AntiPlagiarist 1.8, Where's Your Sources? — Digital century and digital style of work bring new possibilities to all of us, but they also bring new problems. And new ways to solve those new problems; and new unwanted effects of those ways… And one of the most general possibilities (and a source of the problems) is *possibility to copy*.

- Actual Window Guard 4.5, Brings Order To Desktop Windows — Typical today’s desktop is full of windows opened simultaneously. Unfortunately, the level of control over those windows is the Stone Age level: you can either maximize window to take the full area, or you should drag in, drag in, drag in them by hands, if you want to work with more of them one-window-at-a-time. Sad situation, but, for your today’s lack, I know the solution: Actual Window Guard. The…
- Virtual Music Composer 3.0 PRO, A Source For Inspiration — Regardless of how «intellectual» you think your computer is, you can’t disagree that today’s software programmers have many smart ideas, useful for the most of us. In the area of music writing, conservative musicians tend to see the computer as a smart keyboard (sometimes way too smart); modern musicians tend to see it as a cutting table for samples and effects. Almost nobody tries to use the…
- Euphoria Programming Language, Software Development Made Easy — Do you like the modern software? I’d doubt that and don’t know anyone who does — today’s software sucks, to put it mildly; it’s crooked and works not the way it’s supposed to.
