PillarSoft: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 12:22, 6 January 2019

A small company run by Wayne Swanson and based in Jamestown, North Dakota, USA. The company made utility and programming software for the OS/2 market in addition to offering sundry related services such as VisPro/REXX source code recovery. Almost all of the company's products were built using that tool. The company disappeared around 2004.

This fake homepage and the fact that BMT Micro continued accepting registrations for PillarSoft products gave the impression that the company was still going but in actuality it has been defunct more more than a decade.
