Yea, that post would make a good text file in their library.. >Without a doubt its one the most impressive programs I have coming across, Yep! As a windows programmer I agree. First of all, they've made a very nice and simple interface…. just taking functionality and providing the simplest possible user-interface is not easy… but they've done well here. >which probably owes a lot to the fact that its a SGI offspring. Well, yes and no. the reason I would say no is: Writing a windows program has little in common with other platforms. There are so many 'its spec'd this way but dont ever try it' problems in windows…… that to me it is obvious they found skilled windows programmers to do the port, or educated themselves well. The reason I would say yes is: Coming from the SGI platform, they know good and bad implementations when they see them (on any platform). Bri
