    The CXL C function library, and all rights to market and support it, have
been sold.  CXL has been a pleasure to produce and support in the past, but
many things have come up, resulting in substandard service to CXL users.  The sale was needed to ensure CXL's growth and dominance in the shareware C
library market.

    The new owner of CXL is Chip Rabinowitz and his company Innovative Data
Concepts.  Chip is well-known in the programming community for his work on the 
TesSeRact TSR libraries and the Swap Utilities.  He is also very active on
CompuServe, providing invaluable advice to both novice and expert programmers.
Chip is an active member of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP).

    All future CXL orders, inquires, and support will be handled by
Innovative Data Concepts.  Their address is 1657 The Fairways, Suite 101,
Jenkintown, PA 19046.  They can be contacted via electronic mail on CompuServe
(70731,20) or MCI mail (315-5415). For tech support call: 215-884-3373; FAX:
215-886-4226; orders: 1-800-926-4551.

    A new version of CXL is due out around September 1st, 1990, and will
contain all enhancements to CXL since version 5.2.  CXL will be renamed to the
"TesSeRact CXL Windowing Library" and will initially appear as version 5.5.
