I have been using Power Windows II but it's a frustating go. It will guru if there are too many files in the directory. Certain structures are impossible to set up. The user interface is smelly, and as Stuart said, the manual stinks. On the other hand, it beats figuring it out by hand, makes prototyping easier, etc, and is sort of the direction we want to be heading in that we need tools to automate prototyping and development of Intuition structures. -- -- uunet!sugar!karl | "We've been following your progress with considerable -- karl@sugar.uu.net | interest, not to say contempt." -- Zaphod Beeblebrox IV -- Usenet BBS (713) 438-5018
