I've seen ads in MacTutor for three potentially-interesting software
products but haven't seen any comments about them on the net.

If you've bought, used, or even played around with any of the following,
drop me a line and I'll summarize for the net.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product:	Flash Finder
Vendor:		UNICOM Software Development Group, Providence, RI
Description:	Faster (even than Minifinder) application launcher;
		ad shows dialog box that resembles std. file dialog
Price:		$39.95
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product:	C Extender (tm)
Vendor:		Invention Software Corporation, Ann Arbor, MI
Description:	Run-time library for Megamax or Aztec to create and
		manipulate windows, text, menus, dialog boxes, etc.
Price:		$129.95 (C; Pascal $69.96, Both $179.95)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product:	MacSpec (tm)
Vendor:		LM Software (tm), Belmont, CA
Description:	Word processor for structured documents; features
		automatic section-numbering and renumbering, table
		of contents building, etc.
Price:		$199.95
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I am especially interested in MacSpec: while I like MacWrite's WYSIWYG
approach, I miss the document-structuring features of nroff et al.
(Also, I am curious to see just how the user marks sections for auto-
numbering. :-))
