	As a very happy Zortech C++ and CNS/Views user.  I can say that
	I have made a good investment in these products.

	As I am sure you are aware, Zortech has versions of its compiler
	for DOS/386, OS/2, Unix/386, as well as the Developers Edition
	for DOS.  If you have plans for PM or even X11 development on
	a 386, then this should make you happy.

	I encourage you to look at others, but I would suggest that 
	Zortech is probably the safest route for multi-platform
	development.  It has been very good to me for Windows
	development.  I am not sure, however, what support there is
	from  CNS and others for classes that work on multiple
	platforms.  This actually seems to be the issue.

	As far as the libraries, Zortech is probably the most
	comprehensive for operating system support.  But for GUI's
	like PM, Windows, and X11, I think - again - the issue
	is on interface class support.  For multi-OS support, Zortech
	is the only choice.

	Good Luck...Regards |(8>
