Programmer Studio presents a brand new way to develop enterprise-wide applications from a single workstation. It combines the speed and ease of use of a familiar Windows based visual development environment with the power and reliability of existing server-based operating systems.

Code Editor
Programmer Studio's integrated code editor provides all the features found in professional quality editors including customizable color syntax highlighting, virtually unlimited undo/redo, auto-indenting, context sensitive help, bookmarks, find and replace. Add to this the support for features found in legacy editors and time spent coding is dramatically reduced.

Project oriented development environment
The key to Programmer Studio's many productivity benefits is in the project oriented approach to program development. Modeling the components of your application as a hierarchy makes opening files and compiling just a click away.

Support for external server-based symbolic debuggers
Using a TELNET session, the Programmer Studio IDE provides the ability to run a debug target under one of the listed symbolic debuggers. Once started, the user can then control the debug target without leaving the Programmer Studio IDE.

Designed for MPE/iX, UNIX and Windows NT development
With the increasing requirement to develop software for multiple platforms, Programmer Studio provides a single standard environment for enterprise wide development. Programmer Studio is both platform, programming language and compiler independent.

Code Navigator
The Code Navigator introduces a whole new set of features designed to increase productivity. Providing a virtual map of a file's structure, the Code Navigator allows you to examine the contents of a file as a collapsible tree, navigate functions at the click of a button, and even provide help on known functions while editing. Code Navigator support is provided for many of the popular programming languages including C, COBOL, Java, Pascal, Powerhouse, Fortran, Basic, RPG, SPL, Transact, UNIX shell scripts and C makefiles.

Comprehensive COBOL support
Programmer Studio provides additional features for COBOL programmers with intelligent or automatic renumbering and line change tagging. HP3000 users also benefit from transparent copylib access.

Support for UNIX, DOS, Mac and Qedit file formats

One-click compile with error highlighting
Integrated support for server based compilers places you at the heart of the development. With one-click compile, real-time output and automatic error highlighting, Programmer Studio provides the ultimate in server based development.

Intelligent find-in-files search
Search for text across files, step through the results, and load the file to highlight each occurrence without needing to return to a terminal prompt.
