Title: InterViews Reference Manual
Author: Mark A. Linton, Paul R. Calder, John A. Interrante,

Abstract: InterViews is a software system for window-based
applications. Like most user environments, InterViews is
object-oriented in that components such as windows, buttons, menus,
and documents are active elements with inherited behavior. The name
"InterViews" comes from the idea of a user interface object
presenting an interactive view of some data. For example, a text
editor implements an interactive view of the contents of a text file.
.
InterViews provides a set of classes that define the behavior of user
interface objects. We distinguish InterViews classes into two groups:
protocols and kits. A protocol defines the set of operations that an
object can perform, such as drawing or handling input. A kit defines
a set of operations for creating other objects. The idea of a kit is
also sometimes referred to as an "object factory". Using kits hides
the details of object construction and subclassing-instancing
tradeoffs made by the implementation, as well as providing a
higher-level organizational structure to the system.
