Anyone else knows about this, please post (or e-mail me) since I'm into getting myself a good development system, and presently consider Think C 4.0 8MPW ?

Case transposing, flashing parentheses and autoindent can be quite nifty preparing lab reports, novels or letters too, apart from being a must in any code editor. Does any word processor on the market provide this ? (Microsoft ? Are you listening ? 8) And about QUARK Xpress and speed: PageMaker 3.0 is compiled with LSC, which is not as optimizing as MPW (In fact: not optimizing...) It might gain being re-compiled in MPW. But I understand the people at Aldus: LSC is the best environment by far. (Personal opinion, of course...) 'nuff said. Have a nice evening out or something. h+@nada.kth.se -- This is your fortune from h+@nada.kth.se: Death is Nature's way of saying 'slow down'.
