Does working on CLI things mean mutual exclusion with enhancing the WorkBench operating environment? There are a number of areas where enhancements in one aspect pay off for both; for instance, the fast filesystem is a "DOS == CLI" enhancement, but also pays off in the WBench environment. A toolbox library with things like file requester, font requester, and some lower level user-interface support things is useful for both WBench and CLI users and developers. The current state of WBench is definitely abysmal, and needs a lot of attention from someone. When there is a WBench-like interface which is as capable as the CLI interface, I'm sure a lot more developers will pay more attention to it, whether it be from Commodore or from a 3'rd party developer such as Ken Salmon's "DeskTop".
