Sword  is  a  c++ classes framework portable across many Unix systems,
Microsoft  Windows (95/98 and NT) using Cygnus GNU-WIN32 and MSVC, and
as much as possible under msDOS using DJGPP.

It   covers  many  areas  such  as  string,  files/streams,  date/time
manipulation,   numerical   computation   (including  random,  vector,
matrix),  and  graphical user interface building, with a common look &
feel whatever the platform is.

The  latest  version  is 3.0 but it is unreachable at Simtel.Net where
all  DJGPP-related  things are located. If you want to use this latest
version, follow the next link:
http://193.55.36.92/enicolas/compter/sword/

For the moment, this site has only SWORD 3.0beta06. We have decided to
release  new  beta  version  on  this  or  next week (depending on the
results of testing last development version under CygWin32 and DJGPP)
