I Agree with you. I think ToolMaker should be distributed as a commodore development tool. Then again, I havn't seen Toolmaker so I don't know what it's like. If it's better than GTB, then I'll buy it.

I'm not sure if you have it, but if you do, then I can post it to anonymous FTP at amiga.physik.unizh.ch if you like...
