I thought about buying WorkFrame/2, but I have an editor I like and
the other tools didn't excite me.  Also, the price of the toolkit was
$79, the price of the Workframe is $65, and the price of the
combination was about $155, so I decided to see if I needed it.
(The above prices are at Programmer's Paradise).

If my idea of using .dlls doesn't work well, I'll be buying a $65
library utility, I guess.
