What happened was lighthouse design came in and built an exact clone of improv called quantrix. The manuals were interchangeable - I’m actually learning them now.
I bought a boxed copy of improv and quantrix manuals. It is /excellent/ we really have a lot of excellent ideas in our computing past.
If you want a copy of the lighthouse apps (they gave away licenses when sun bought them in 1996 or so. ) check out next computers.org They have a file section.
