TELEGARD 3.09 DEVELOPMENT KIT RELEASE

KINGSTON, ONTARIO - November 5, 1997 - The first Telegard 3.10 development 
kit will be released on Thursday, November 6, 1997.  This development 
package is a complete tool for all third party utility developers, and 
encompasses all the information required to do any development for Telegard 
3.10 (3.09 Gamma-1).

This is the first development kit for the 3.09 gamma 1 version of Telegard 
3.10.  As we move toward the final 3.10 release, another development kit 
will be released.

The package contains both C and Turbo Pascal header files which outline the 
internal and some external data structures, as well as a comprehensive 
development document.  The structures are laid out and commented so that 
quick reference to just the structure file should be sufficient for most 
advanced programmers.

The development documentation contains a complete listing of all the data 
files and structures, with helpful access information and other specific 
areas of note or caution.  Also outlined are several other general 
programming concepts, including methods of handling indexing, multinode and 
multilingual support.  The development documentation also contains a guide 
to third party utility development covering aspects of product release 
packages, methods of distribution and probable markets.

The development kit will be released into the Fidonet SDN area TG_SUP, and 
should be available from most of our beta/distribution sites.  In addition, 
you can find the file at our primary ftp site (ftp://telegard.net/pub/tg). 
The filename is TGDEV309.ZIP, and the file is ~75K.

Thanks for your interest in Telegard 3.10 (3.09.g1),
