Paracomp was a Macintosh programming company known for their 3D software, Swivel 3D [1] and ModelShop [2] and FilmMaker. [3] FilmMaker was known for its packaging which was a 16 mm film reel tin, which was used to contain the software and manuals.[ citation needed] Paracomp was also the publisher of the computer algebra system Milo, [4] which was the first program on Macintosh able to perform symbolic computation [5] using standard math notation. [6] Paracomp was acquired by MacroMind in 1991 to briefly form MacroMind-Paracomp, [7] before adding Authorware in 1992 [8] and becoming Macromedia. [9]
