#CanDo
Steve,
Such glowing praise, "best thing since ARexx"? While I'm impressed with
the program for starters, I'm a little frustrated by some of CanDo's
limitations: no requester or multiple window support, keyboard support,
etc. I'm hopeful for the future, but it's not a do-all or end-all just
yet, at least not for building very sophisticated applications.
I suppose it all depends on your expectations and what you use it for.
IMHO, CanDo is poised somewhere between an builder of graphic front-ends
and a language for bulding applications. What direction they're going, I'm
not sure, or if maybe they'll go in all directions!
With all the initial enthusiasm for the product, it sounded almost like a
Hypercard for the Amiga, but CanDo has NOTHING to do with hypertext or
hypermedia, at least not at this time. I'm optimistic about CanDo, however
(although I may not sound like it in this posting!), even if they plan on
charging for some of the features (like keyboard support) that *I* think
are necessary.
