1953.0. "HOOP's for DECWindows ?" by WPOMM2::ZAMBOTTI () Wed Dec 20 1989 04:07

Has any body heard of HOOPs for Decwindows (RISC) (VMS).

HOOPs stands for Hierarchical Object Oriented Programming and is another

Any leads, this is for a customer.

	Hi Kris, thanks for that. Could you tell me if we (DEC) have any product information on HOOP's and if so how I can get my hands on some. Otherwise a fax number for Ithaca Software Inc would be great. Any other info appreciated. Walter Zambotti

	Re.3 >..Otherwise a fax number for >..Ithaca Software Inc would be great. I don't have this info, but you can dial the operator for the Ithaca, New York area code and directory assistance (607-555-1212 ). The remainder you can figure out ;-) Kris..
