Bjoern,

        If you are starting a multi-year project, I recommend in the
        strongest terms dissociating yourself from the IBM-PC/Intel
        architecture and Microsoft's products at the beginning.

        I am currently programming in the OXXI Benchmark Modula-2
        compiler, which has a beautifully integrated development
        system using micro-gnu-emacs (you can edit, compile, link and
        test without leaving emacs) with full, documented access to
        the AmigaDOS multi-processing, message passing, window
        oriented operating system.  It is like being in love!

        I'm sure that there are several other well integrated systems
        out there, but I'm convinced none of them will ever come from
        Microsoft or IBM, their records speak too strongly against it.

        Good luck with your project, and keep us informed how it goes!

Thanks,

Kent, the man from xanth.
