CNN: Split decision for Microsoft. Can't force Windows 95 OEMs to bundle MSIE. No $1 million per day fine.

The home page of the Frontier 5 site is becoming a news page in its own right. Today three articles were posted on that page, but not pointed to from Scripting News. There will be a lot of new information about Frontier 5 in the coming weeks. If you want to stay in touch, please bookmark the home page and check it once a day.

What's next? XML. Stay tuned!

Adrenaline Charts Pro is scriptable. Looks nice!

Power Computing goes out in style. They lost their license for speeding... Right on!

InfoWorld: Ellison Embraces PCs. I learned last week, at my dinner with Ed Iaccobucci, that Citrix will play a big role in helping Ellison's Java stations run Windows apps from a server.

An Italian friend pronounces Ed's last name Yacko--Booooo-Chee. Round the Boooo syllable with a subtle smile. I love the way she says his name!

The spirit of Cross-Platform Day continues!

You can open a Windows object database on the Mac and vice versa! See the Frontier 5 site for more info.

The scripting tutorial for Frontier 5 users; adapted by Brent Simmons from the Frontier 4 tutorial written by Matt Neuburg.

I love the way Matt writes: "An old saying, sometimes wrongly attributed to Thoreau, runs: 'Give a man a fish and he eats for day; teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.' In this tutorial we'll do both. Frontier scripting is our fish; we'll catch fish together, and then you'll know enough to be able to do all the fishing you want on your own."
