I've blown of the Workset, even though I'd like to see what it could do for
me...It's supposed to be pretty valuable for fixing compile errors, etc, *but*
I use an emacs-like editor (Epsilon v 6.0 -- a professional product) which
has next-error, etc. so I really don't need the WorkFrame.  

Overall, though, I've found the CSet/2 to be a good compiler set. (You need
the TOOLKIT to access the Dos, Vio, Kbd, Win, etc functions.)  There are a 
few bugs in IPMD that still need to be worked out, but they haven't stopped
me from working...just made me reboot a couple of times.  I use the set every
day for work...so I think I'd be a pretty good sample.  I don't (yet) program
PM stuff, so I can't be a reference there...

I choose CSet/2 over GCC and waiting for Borland, if that helps.

Jeff
