I've been doing some simple programming on the Mac, but now I want to
get a little more serious :-).  I am trying to find out which
prototyping tool is the best to use.

I've heard of Prototyper and AppMaker.  I've used Prototyper 2.0 and to
be honest, things didn't go well!  I would get system crashes, things
disappearing etc.  I know there are newer versions: does anyone know if
they are any better?+ How's AppMaker?

Also, what exactly is MacApp?  Is it just a series of objects, or does it
have facilities similar to Prototyper for making windows, alerts, etc.?
And is the Think Class Library the same sort of thing?  (I'm still
waiting for my update...)

I will be using Think Pascal 3.0 and would like to use something that
takes advatages of Object Oriented stuff.

Any suggestions or comments would be appreicated.  I'll summarize if
there's interest.

Thanx very much!
