I second Alan's remarks! I've been using PMI's Repertoire windowing
package for over a year now with great success. It's part of a product
that I've written which is commercially available and selling well,
due in part to the PMI package.
The guys at PMI are helpful and very interested in what you're doing.
My only complaint? Repertoire uses (actually, is BASED on) linked list
data structures and if your compiler (are you listening, Logitech?) does
lousy pointer transformations, your application CAN suffer.
I'm beta testing a new Modula-2 compiler (can't say who) for the PC and
they do a MUCH better job of dealing with pointers, so Repertoire is
pretty nifty on it. If this Modula-2 compiler appears on the market in
any reasonable time frame (as I expect it will), that combination will
be pretty awesome!
Too bad 'this company' didn't release their product before Logitech
introduced their excluding linker...
