Prograph does not have a rich enough set of classes to even come *close* to
replacing MacApp or TCL for that matter. Folks familiar with the rich set
of classes will be sorely disappointed at what they have to pull off in
order to make simple changes. Most classses have about six methods for
customization. I *think* there is something like 20 or so classes set up
for you, and you usually have to overshadow *huge* amounts of code to
effect a simple behaviorial change. I can't recommend Prograph in its
current version, but I have true hope for this package.

In a nut shell, when the "wow factor" wears off, there isn't much of a
development enviroment left, and you'd be better of protoyping with it.

Sorry TGS folks, I truely do like your product, but you have to be at least
as useful as Think C and the TCL...
