TPW has absolutely NO limitations - it is a full featured Windows development
tool, and you can use it to write anything you'd write using C and theSDK. As
far as I'm concerned, the combination of ObjectWind (part of TPW) and a 
resource editor such as the WhiteWater REsource Toolkii ir Borland's Resource
Workshop (I'm not sure which one they're shipping with TPW now) beats using
C and the SDK hands down!
