About

Welcome to Chromis Pos & open source Pos applications.

Following on my extensive work in supporting open source pos with a large number of additional featuresand fixes. I have decided to start producing additional applications as extensions to these open sourceapplications, or any other open source POS software that be adapted to use these applications.

My changes can be found at www.chromis.co.uk

These applications will be released as open source, with the applications released on the SourceForgeplatform and Github used for the source code.
