Think Tank Products
Harlequin had two main lines of business
- digital pre-press (primarily ScriptWorks, a PostScript language compatible RIP, now selling under the name Harlequin RIP),
- and modern language development environments (compilers and IDEs) for Lisp, ML and Dylan.
Other products included data analysis tools created using LispWorks, the Lisp IDE.
The Think Tank structure of the Harlequin can also be recognized via the development of a flexible and modular memory management system, the Memory Pool System (MPS). MPS was designed
- to support a wide range of requirements from high-speed manual memory management, to complex garbage collection with many different types of reference.
- to support two product ScriptWorks PostScript RIP, and their Harlequin Dylan compiler and IDE for the Dylan programming language.

Famous quotes containing the word products:
“It seemed there was a sort of poisoning, an auto-infection of the organisms, so Dr. Krokowski said; it was caused by the disintegration of a substance ... and the products of this disintegration operated like an intoxicant upon the nerve-centres of the spinal cord, with an effect similar to that of certain poisons, such as morphia, or cocaine.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
