I have used toolbook extensively as a prototyping language.

Toolbok looks pretty nice as a hypertext package ('tho it is the only one
I have used in anger),  but if you stray from pure hypertext beware of the
64K page limit and the 64K book script limit.  The graphics speed is OK, but
the interpreter is a bit sluggish, especially if you are trying to get around
the 64K book limit.

Cheers,

Harry
