ArchDEV was the program for creating the programs, and protecting the code. ArchRTM was then a freely distributable runtime module, which was required to link in and run the finished program, subject to a license fee of £1 per copy sold being paid to Psion. ArchRTM provided various advantages to software developers: * Smaller footprint than [[qlwiki:Archive]], running more quickly on the QL * More memory available for programs and databases * Automatically loads and runs an Archive program, which then controls the full QL screen * The program is protected, and cannot be broken into by users * The memory split between ArchRTM (or RTM Archive) and QDOS can be tuned to get the best out of your program A number of commercial packages were released using this development package, including: * [[qlwiki:Archivist]] - A collection database program by [[qlwiki:Ark Distribution]] * [[qlwiki:Cardfile]] - An easy to use cardfile database by [[qlwiki:Ark Distribution]] * [[qlwiki:Mailfile]] - A mailing database by [[qlwiki:Ark Distribution]] * [[qlwiki:Librarian]] - A database for maintaining a library by [[qlwiki:Ark Distribution]] * [[qlwiki:IMPACCT]] - An accounting package by [[qlwiki:Xpert Software]] * [[qlwiki:Stock Control]] - Stock Control system by [[qlwiki:Transform]] * [[qlwiki:QL Mail List]] - Program to maintain a mailing list by [[qlwiki:Transform]] ---- {{screenshots:archdev_screenshot.gif?direct&240x120 |Screenshot of Sinclair QL ArchDev/RTM by Psion Limited}}\\ Title: **ArchDEV/RTM**\\ Language: Unknown\\ Author: Unknown\\ Publisher: [[qlwiki:Psion]] and [[qlwiki:PDQL]]\\ Year of Publication: Unknown\\ Price September 1985: Unknown\\ Reviews: Unknown\\ Platforms Suitable for: All Sinclair QLs and emulators\\ Commercial Status: Commercial Sources Available from: n/a\\ Latest Version available from: Unknown\\ qlwiki/archdevarchrtm.txt Last modified: 2023/08/25 12:23by 127.0.0.1
