Stefan Ruck

Stefan Ruck got in touch with computers in 1981 at school, where he did some BASIC programming. Later on he also tried a little bit of assembler and PASCAL. In 1987 he started professional programming on IBM mainframes in COBOL. Since 1989, PC, DOS and C have been the keywords of his job. In 1996, Windows and MFC were added. OS/2 is his private training environment for OOP in C++ since 1994. The main result of this is the program HexEdit for OS/2, an MDI hex editor. The latest version can be found on his homepage [1].
