Harlequin (software Company) - Think Tank Products

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:

    Good wine needs no bush,
    And perhaps products that people really want need no
    hard-sell or soft-sell TV push.
    Why not?
    Look at pot.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
