Yes. BTDT. There are win32-API books gathering dust in my bookshelf, just to remind me where I don´t want to go today, tomorrow, well, just never again. The IDE of SQLWindows/Centura was nice, though, those expanding levels of code did wonders for huge projects. But Turbo-C/-Pascal were nicer in almost any other aspect. And I´ll never forget not being able to port some program to COBOL, until I realised that the very concept of recursions didn´t cross the minds of those inventing those ugly beast. >> The Policy Editor, OTOH, is quite nice. > >sure, but there are better. i forgot the name of the one i have in >mind, i'll post it tomorrow from the office. Since I guess this will be of commercial software, and not very Debian-related, you might want to consider sending your reply as private mail... cheers, &r<Those are /un/pleasant memories, I think I need a drink now>w -- -- "Women novelists are a bit like a dog walking -- upon his hind legs; he does not do it well but -- one is surprised to see that he does it at all" ----
