There are two packages that I know of.  One is called CHARM from World Wide
Data Corp.  The other is VESTRONIX from a canadian firm.

I've seen Charm.  It seems to run well and the object modules aren't all that 
large.  I have not seen Vestronix yet, but I've been told that they will be
able to do X screens by sometime in September.

If you need details or addresses, leave e-mail.
