What is Swiftlook 1-2?
----------------------
Swiftlook 1-2(tm) for the Clarion Professional Developer covers the
Clarion Language, Utilities, and Report Writer. It references both versions
2.0 and 2.1 of Clarion. Updates will be available for batch releases.
The data manuals are extensively cross referenced -- so that you can find
what you want as easily as possible. The cross references (or "hyperlinks")
are levels of information. At the first level there are Menu's -- which are
like a book's table of contents. Then there are Indexes. Thirdly, there are
the pages or screens of detail information about specific Clarion features,
language elements, or other information. Finally, the three levels cross
reference to the other levels and within their own level.
The full version of Swiftlook 1-2(tm)

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
