What are the experiences of Windows programmers using C++ with regard
to the actual tools ?  I'm not so much inteesting in the merits or
pitfalls of various class libraries as the ease of use of the tools.

For example, if you're *really* using C++, chances are that C++ compiler
will run out of data space (under DOS), unless it has a DOS extender
version.  But can you run it in a Windows Enhanced Mode DOS Window ?
If you can't, it's not the end of the world, but it does certainly
trip up the compile/link/edit cycle.

I certainly think I can do better than Glockenspiel C+ 2.0.
Am I right ?
