New Plugins and Tutorials for Revolution/Dreamcard
More free components available from So Smart Software

Paris, June 4th 2005
So Smart Software (http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/) today announces the
availability of three new plugins for the Revolution family of software
development tools (www.runrev.com). These new plugins provide additional
features that support smart projects reports, windows management and real
time access to sixteen tutorials stacks. The plugins come with help stacks
in French and English and are available for Mac OS and Windows XP.

“In fewer than 5 months, our tool kit has grown a lot. Now thirteen plugins
are available, supporting a wide range of programming necessities for
beginners and advanced users. At the same time, we decided that “giving
fish” is a good idea but teaching people how to fish is an even better one.
That’s the reason why we have released sixteen tutorials and this is only
the beginning!” said Eric Chatonet of So Smart Software.
