Ben,
I agree, WP ain't perfect. However, after some of the service I've seen
in this industry, I was impressed with the company. For really big
projects I prefer to use our own product we developed at our company – it's
much easier to use and handles large documents better. But for what I use
it for, WP is fine, and again, I've been impressed with their service
attitude.
I've done some pretty significant projects with Manx, too. Up through
3.6, I had no problem at all. I, too, use a pretty structured approach to
my work.
I welcome the function prototyping capability with 5.0. It's a really
necessary feature when using the compiler with 16-bit ints, especially when
running some of the PD or other people's stuff through it. I almost always
use type aliases with my stuff, but you still can get in trouble with the
library functions in a weak moment.
73,
