        SXTWIN - SXT for WINDOWS

        All SXT programs (CXT,  DXT,  FXT and LXT) have  been  ported  to
        MS-Windows.  The functionality of the SXT Windows versions is the
        same as for the SXT command-line  text  mode  versions.  The  SXT
        Windows versions offer many additional features:

        -    user  interface  for  interactive  selection  of  files  and
             options via pull  down  menus  and  dialog  windows  (double
             clicks, drag and drop from file manager, ...),
        -    message window to show user related information, warning and
             error messages, user can scroll back to previous messages,
        -    information  window  to  show the analysis progress,  can be
             switched off to speed up  analysis  (popup  menu  'Analyze',
             selection 'Show Info'),
        -    the  source  code  analysis process can be paused/continued,
             stopped (to continue with output  file  writing)  or  safely
             aborted  (all  results are lost).  See selections from popup
             menu 'Analyze',
        -    user defined working directory to store the analysis results
             (initialisation files, output file, database, ...),
        -    selections (files, options,  working directory,  ...) can be
             stored  in  and  retrieved  from used defined initialisation
             files,  several initialisation files for different  projects
             are possible,
        -    SXT  programs  can  run  simultaneously  with  other Windows
             programs,
        -    command  line  option  -BATCH  provides  batch   mode   like
             behaviour  (program starts,  executes the specified commands
             and closes automatically),
        -    DLL interfaces to access the generated database  from  other
             windows  applications,  e.g.  from your own C/C++ and Visual
             Basic  programs,   from  MS-Word  for   Windows,   MS-Excel,
             MS-Access, ...

        The SXT Windows programs have version numbers which are different
        from those of the command line versions.  The version number is a
        combination of two 'major.minor' numbers: the SXT Windows version
        number followed by the version number of the basic  command  line
        version.  For  example,  CFTWIN  1.03.2.21 means: CFT for Windows
        version 1.03 based on CFT command line version 2.21.  The version
        number is shown in the 'About' Dialog Box.

        Two different Windows versions are available:

        -    16  bit  version  for Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups
             3.11 (this SXT version is the shareware version)
        -    32 bit version for the  Win32s  subsystem  of  Windows  3.1,
             Windows  for Workgroups 3.11,  Windows 95 and Windows NT 3.1
             (this SXT version is only for registered users)

        The only difference between the 16 bit and the 32 bit versions is
        the execution speed: the 32  bit  version  is  approximately  40%
        faster!

        The  SXTNVIEW  program is a Visual Basic sample application (with
        full  VB  source  code)  that  demonstrates  the   use   of   the
        DLL-interface for database access.  It works with all SXT program
        databases.  SXTNVIEW requires the Visual Basic  Run-Time  library
        VBRUN300.DLL  (NOT  included  in  the SXTWIN packages).  For more
        information see the documentation.
