In this case it is windows, not Newton software. Newton Connection
Tools connects from the PC (Xp, Vista, 7, and 8 ... no idea about the
nightmare that is 10) to the Newton (like NCU). It allows backing up of
the newton, package installs, soup backup individually, and I *think*
soup exploration. It also allows more export/import/sync options than
NCU including a modern sync with Outlook.
A good windows programmer might be able to reverse engineer it. But I
hope the author is willing to release the source. The only problem I
had with this program is the license was locked to a particular newton.
That newton breaks or gets lost, and you are up a creek.
