- ViewCenter and ObjectBuilder\C++ are basically the same product, and
- they're both based on the OI class library. OI provides runtime selection
- of 2D- or 3D- OPEN LOOK behavior, or Motif behavior. Most of the usual
- widgets/objects are there, although OI does not yet support drag-and-drop,
- paned windows or tearoff menus in Motif model, or splittable views in the
- OPEN LOOK models. All of these features should show up in OI version 4.0
- and the corresponding versions of ViewCenter and ObjectBuilder, all of
- which are due out sometime in 1993.
