        The Class Designer will be one part of the IDE. The general idea is  
to have a single application that will allow you to edit classes,  
reports, menus, connections, scripts, etc., rather than having to run  
several separate tools. There will also be the concept of a project,  
that will add features such as tracking components and their paths,  
managing database information, and (possibly!) providing build services.

        That sounds great! This is exactly the sort of thing that will  
really help Dabo. Besides not having enough time to develop the  
product and write documentation, I feel like I'm too far inside of it  
to explain it well to someone first looking at it from the outside.  
Everything is obvious to me, whereas there are certainly some areas  
that are a lot less obvious to others.

        If you'd like to send it to me, I can post it on the Dabo downloads  
page so that others can take a look at it, too.
