AUSTIN, Texas-February 27, 1997-Metrowerks Inc. (NASDAQ: MTWKF,
TSE/ME:MWK), one of the world's leading providers of software development
tools, today announced a new version of its cross-platform revision control
system, MW CodeManager 4.
Fully compatible with Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 5.0, MW CodeManager
allows individual developers and large project teams to easily and
efficiently manage millions of lines of code while maintaining version
control. Release 4 offers much faster database access for network users -

speed will have a major impact on productivity for many users, as MW

common project across a network. The CodeManager Administrator, a
stand-alone administrative application, now features direct database
manipulation, as well as detailed analysis views. MW CodeManager 4 also
features expanded on-line documentation, for easier and more thorough
reference.

Metrowerks authorized distributors for a suggested retail price of US$399.
Registered users receive two free updates in June and October 1997 and
technical support.
