The port is from Wolfgang Ocker, Lochhausersstr. 32, 8039 Puchheim, West-Germany. The firm is called recco-ware.
The Version is sold only bundled with the C-Compiler, Basic09, Stylograph and the Sculptor database package. It comes with tools to access TOS files and some PD-stuff. The database is very nice and fast, and has anything,but an SQL interface. So it's quite up to date. (it runs under UNIX, VAX, MSDOS, ... too, so
really professional stuff).

This explains the price of 1598.- DM.

It will not run on the STacy, because the Screen-Hardware is different. The Drivers for the Harddisk will have to be changed also, because of the power consumption. You might phone Mr. Ocker to ask him, if he is doing the port or has already done it.

He sells also other nice OS9-Software and distributs the TOPS-Packet, if you send
(8-10) disks and a properly stamped and adressed envelope.
