David,

Well, I've not yet written any ASLM/CFM-based code. However, it seems highly
possible that the APIs between ALSM/CMF-based code could mimic that of DLLs,
thereby producing the highest yield of coding time invested.

Actually, the aslm is really a subset of the CFM, and you'll have to implement
the aslm stuff all over again for the CFM, since the ASLM isn't native quite
yet. The ASLM isn't quite there as compared to windows DLLs, which are pretty
happening overall. Apple, seems to have learned from windows about dll version
problems, which is a plus. As a negative, you can't export random chunks of
code out of your application and use them from within an aslm library, which
you can do with the cfm (I think).
