(Much editting and cutting done above)

    I just thought that I'd put my two cents worth into this with regards to
DSEE (or Dee-Cee as we call it).  I'm working on a large software development
project at the moment. The functionality that DSEE gives me, I find
impressive. The system models used in DSEE are sufficiently powerful to let
me do various strange things which 'make' couldn't handle. (Or at least I
couldn't get make to handle :-)) While I do admit that for editting I prefer
EMACS, I typically have three windows up, one with EMACS, one with DSEE and
the final one with an AEGIS shell in it. This configuration allows me do to
literally anything to or with the system.
