I find actor very easy to develop working code with. In most cases when something bombs I drop into a source language level debug window at point of error. I can inspect any stack value and clicking on any stack frame shows me source code. In many cases I can fix the problem and continue execution. Hooking up an ascii monitor to the RS232 port to run codeview is not my idea of a fun time. Also, I prefer "development support" environments to "language support" environments. -Ken Dickey kend@data.uucp
