This is the main problem of every GUI library. We tend to forget the basic differences of CONSOLE and GUI way of programming flow - program controlled vs user controlled. We can mimic the CUI calls to present the interface but we _cannot_ mimic the CUI like behavior, viz., ReadModal(). The reason is that GUI behavior is encapsulated in a global "inkey()" like loop and every object in the application has its own events fire/act behavior. > If not it would be much simpler to use QT in "native way".

How to hook all the powerful RDD engine. 3. The ease of use. ----- enjoy hbIDEing...
