Description: The purpose of this investigation is to (1) design an integrated and automated software development environment for microcomputers, (2) to implement a portion of that environment and, (3) to modify the VAX-11/780 VMS Software Development Workbench to support microcomputer workstations. The central portion to initial microcomputer software development environment is a flexible user interface adapted from a previous microcomputer software development effort. The user interface is enhanced by an extensive installation program which allows (1) terminal definition, (2) help message specification and, (3) reconfiguration of the keyword menu system. The result of the investigation is a prototype software development environment hosted on DEC Rainbow 100 microcomputer under three operating systems: CP/M-80, CP/M-86, and MS-DOS. The environment includes a flexible user interface, an installation program, a communications program, and an initial library of reusable software. Originator-Supplied keywords included: Software Development, Software Development Environment, Software Engineering, Computer Programs, Programming Languages, Pascal language, Theses.
