- PPM is a relatively well done MacProject clone. The programmer who wrote it
- for Visus doesn't work there: some sort of contractor or whatever. (Visus -
- correct me here if I've got this wrong.)
-
- It's not the most NeXTy application I've ever seen and has some (in my opinion)
- serious bugs: poor scrolling, date calculation problems, some mac-isms in
- cut/paste/move/etc that conflict with my NeXT habits.
-
- It worked ok for small stuff, quickly knocked off, but I'd never try to manage
- my whole project with it.
-
- Having said that, it has drawn some pretty pictures for me and was worth the
- $175 or whatever deal I got. On the other hand, they supposedly have a new
- version and I've heard squat!
