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 16mm 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]
