Included here are the office utilities that make any UnixWare system complete, including appointment managers, email readers, Internet tools, draw, paint and document tools, spreadsheets, and even a full-featured RDBMS.
Several different software development environments are also included: the GNU C/C++ development suite, the Tcl/Tk embedded programming language as well as tools such as the Motif debuggers and X11 development systems.
