MANTIS
     
         A structured, full-function procedural {4GL} and
        application development system from {Cincom}.  MANTIS enables
        the developer to design prototypes, create transaction screens
        and reports, define logical data views, write structured
        procedures, and dynamically test, correct, document, secure,
        and release applications for production in a single,
        integrated, interactive session.
     
        MANTIS applications can be enhanced with gOOi, the graphical
        object-oriented interface, which creates graphical Windows
        representations of existing MANTIS screens.
