                   Software Announcement:  Viola

I am pleased to announce the preview release of a highly manipulable
interactive-media authoring tool. The interpretive nature of Viola 
enables it to be highly interactive: users can directly, or through 
scripts, create and modify objects.

For those familiar with Apple's HyperCard(tm), Viola is the closest
thing to it for the UNIX/X11-Window environment.

Viola binary and source are freely available via anonymous FTP on 
scam.berkeley.edu (128.32.138.1). Look for the README file in the
directory "src/local/viola".
