In response to a query by Ted Bailey:

> GEM interface available? (Neil??)

I don't know about the version marketed by Atari, but Versasoft
released version 3 a year ago and has just released version 4.  There
are many enhancements, including variable length text fields, private
variables and parameters to command procedures, browse and shop
commands, ability to save and restore screens, GEM-style menus and
file selector boxes, many new functions, various changes to make
it more like dBASE III, a few bug fixes (but there weren't many
bugs to start with) and yes, an "assist" program that you can run,
implemented as a DBMan command file.
