This would solve the cross-platform problem quite easily. I could not throw my support behind writing a Windows only IDE/GUI toolchain, as I cant afford to shell out $100 for Blue Screen'doze. ;-> I am, and always will be a FreeBSD/Linux developer. The thought of yet another Doze only IDE is something I find to be appaling. If people want a doze only GUI, there are plenty of tool vendors out there that would be glad to sell them one. Being a poor college student, I just dont have the money or the patience to deal with the costs incurred in using MS software. Anyways...my .02 worth. McDoobie chris@dont.spam.me
