I am looking for anyone with any knowledge of a software package
called MetaForm, done by a firm called InTran in the Minneapolis,
Minnesota area.  This software was written for PERQ workstations.
Rights to this software were eventually acquired by Xerox.
Manufacturing rights to the PERQ itself were eventually acquired by
Varityper.

I'd appreciate talking to anyone who has a copy of this software,
knows where one can be found, or who worked at InTran.  Alternately,
if anyopne has any suggestions about how to contact Xerox for
informaiton about the software, I'd appreciate it.

In general, I'm interested in ANY information about DTP, layout, or
text editing packages for the PERQ workstations.

Thanks Very Much!!!
