 Christopher Sosa - 6 days ago

Someone from here, has an archive with the latest of the source code components of the now-long begone CrystalArchitect tools source code?, it was pretty impressive at the time, i lost the source code archives around 2014 due my usb sticks being stolen.

I would be extremely grateful if someone holds an copy of it, i'm not using for serious projects, rather study how it worked together with CS/CEL.

Thanks.
