Actually, there are a few features in PWB that can't be replaced easily.  The
makefile creation is something I've never seen anywhere else, and the source
browser would be difficult to duplicate.  Borland's IDE does the same thing,
but not if you're running the Microsoft compilier, and borland isn't quite
as flexible.

PWB is a pain in the butt to use!  If you want something easy use whatever you
usually use just put it in a dos window.  If you're a professional programmer
buy CodeWright from Premia, it can do almost everything except the Makefiles
and Browsing, and can do a lot of other things too.

If you're not a professional use borland or maybe Visual Basic :)
