The core user interface code in a point of sale system. I got a contract in 1994 at NCR to write an interface between the flagship grocery point of sale system and a new UI device called DynaKey. I was told not to polish it too much because they needed to get it out the door, and they'd go back and clean it up later. By 1995 I was writing the second version, which made the UI configurable. In 2008 I was back writing the third version, still in production today, but still built around the code I wrote in 1994.
