- Thanks. Some had pointed out to me in email that one could simply
- drop the GUI. But no one claimed no loss in functionality or feature,
- leading me to believe that none of them customarily work GUI-less.

- Sounds like a convenient feature.
-
- Y'know, Doug, what with your net.presence (and support!) and so many
- good things being said about your product I just might be making the
- switch. Back when Lattice was around v3.something, and after using
- both, I went with Aztec C for my Amiga work. Over the years it's held
- up fine, but SAS seems to have done it significantly better lately.
-
- And to save the mythical potential bandwidth, folks, I already have
- the information I need to order. :-) :-)
