167.0. "Do we need a tools repository??" by KERNEL::LOANE (Comfortably numb!!) Fri Feb 11 1994 09:00

    I  believe  there  should be a simple Tools Repository in the CSC; a 
    common menu system that  allows  ANYONE  to  access  ALL  tools.  It 
    appears  that  Alan  James'  efforts  in  this  area  are  no longer 
    supported, however, there is a tool called KATIE available from  the 
    CSC  in  Colorado.  I  have  the bare bones of this application, and 
    have  asked  Pete  Alvis  and  Mike  Baldock  if  it's  possible  to 
    implement it officially.....

    Comments??

    P.S.  KATIE  is  the  Knowledge and Tools Integrated Environment (or 
    alternatively, it's Charlie Ginhardt's daughter!!)

167.1Looks very promisingKERNEL::BLANDNorman Bland 833 3797 CSC, BasingstokeWed Feb 16 1994 13:227
    Having had a very quick preview of KATIE with Chris, I believe it looks
    very promising. As it was/is being developed in Colorado, not eveything
    will be of use to us in UK. However, if we have a UK/European
    maintainer and pool our ideas with Colorado, I see some very useful
    benefits. Can we, will we, integrate the existing tools into KATIE?

167.2Give KATIE a tryKERNEL::ROBBTue Feb 22 1994 17:0911
    Chris,
    
    Currently there are tools all over the place. So much so that many of
    them are not used because they are not known about or can't be found
    when needed. 
    
    We need a common area for all tools, even if it is only a pointer to
    where the tools live. As a lot of work has already been done on KATIE I
    feel that we should use it.

    Fine....DISK$APD5:[KATIE...]  is  the  repository.  Let me know what 
    tools you unearth and I'll see about incorporating them...
