Greetings

    I am in search of an authoring system for the IBM PC world. I will
attempt to describe what it is I am looking for as best as I know how.
ANY information would be helpful as if I don't find one of these things
I have to write one, and I really don't want to.

    authoring system - program package which facilitates the design and
                       implementation of CAI applications

    what I've got    - seven (!) large directed decision exercises
                       eg. Choose one of the following, do what follows, etc.
                       in fact, a bunch of GOTO statements on paper

    what I would like- program which I could load data file, with instructions,
                       into and have it run or generate a CAI application

    what I've seen   - PC PILOT - basically a fancy GOTO language
                       Authority - expensive version of above

    Again, any information or leads would be appreciated greatly. I figure
would be a rather large project and I really don't have time right now. Even
better I've got a professor pushing me for this.
