I'm not sure if I will agree with your last statement :-), but I must admit that the only "widespread" GUI I've heard about that is comparable in power to OS/2 WPS is NextStep, and the only photo-editing program I've heard about that is comparable to ColorWorks 2.0 for OS/2 is the bitmap module in OneVision for NextStep (1. I've used PhotoShop and Picture Publisher, but they are not the state of the art anymore (and I'm not sure if they ever was). 2. I'm not a NextStep-person, it's just that a lot of the programs that does stuff a little bit different comes from that direction). Sorry for keeping a thread that is only slightly related to programming alive... it's just that I can't resist to preach a little bit OS/2 every now and then. -- +-------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Tore B.
