Does anyone have any experience with using Knowledge Garden's Knowledge Pro
Windows development / programming environment?

After its great review in Infoworld back in Oct, I purchased a copy (after
checking their 60 day moneyback guarantee) and have been evaluating it for
use as a Windows development environment.  Overall, I've been very impressed,
but lots of nagging questions remain - mainly to do with using PKWin on a
large project.  E.g. Does it get slower?  (Speed is reasonable with small
progs).  How cumbersome do the DLL ties to C become?  (Some stuff just has
to be done in C, e.g. heavy file manipulation / intensive math).  Other
questions I should ask?  (Being a noviced Windows developer, tho' experienced
C programmer).

Any comments / suggestions welcomed.  I will summarize and repost if
there is any interest.  If anyone wants more basic info about PKWin, drop
me a line.

Thanks,
Michael Mee,                            _--_|:
