FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
QuickCode Pro upgrade offers extended to September 30th
Essential 4th Dimension plugin has a new version and a new home.
New York, NY - Sunday, September 2nd, 2001: Aparajita Fishman today
announced that the upgrade offers for QuickCode Pro (QCP) will be extended
to September 30th. Current owners of QCP 3.x can upgrade to version 4.3 at
a 27% discount off the retail price. Current owners of version 4.x can
upgrade to 4.3 for free.
QuickCode Pro is a 4th Dimension plugin which significantly enhances the 4D
method editor and dramatically increases programmer productivity.
Formerly sold by Automated Solutions Group, sales of support of QuickCode
Pro are now handled by Aparajita, the author, at http://aparajitaworld.com.
Version 4 of QCP is a complete rewrite from version 3.x which focuses and
stability and functionality. When used with 4D 6.5+, QCP is integrated into
4D's event loop through special hooks created especially for it. In a
recent survey, most users rated QuickCode Pro 10 out of 10 for stability.
QuickCode Pro 4.3 includes a dramatically improved PDF User Reference.
An Indispensable Tool
---------------------
QuickCode Pro users are unanimous of their praise for the real-life
benefits of version 4.
"If you are developing on Mac, you owe it to yourself (and your customers)
to try QuickCode Pro 4.0," said David Adams, renowned 4D authority and book
author.
"I would say QCP can save me 50% of my time when coding." says Mark
Mitchenall, author of Expat4D. "It's not just the typing help. It's the
massive overall improvement in user experience and functionality within the
method editor which really makes QCP excellent. I would go so far as to say
that QCP paid for itself the very first day that I started using it."
Version 3.x users who upgrade will benefit from a slew of new features and
the rock-solid stability. "My silent grumbles about paying $200 for an
upgrade were totally silenced by the cool stuff you have added since
version 3.5," remarked Robert K. Colwell. "Thank you!! It is clearly worth
it."
