Hi and congratulations with the final cut. I daily use the unix version of Hugs and find it very solid and useful. Putting myself in the shoes of the green newbie, that is about to get his feets functionally wet for the 1st time, I set out to try the Windoze version. The comments that follow are exclusively on the GUI, and not the Hugs core. While pretty nice in general, I immediately found a lot of small nits that really give the impression of a half backed product. 1. The editor field is cramped. I can't give the full path of my editor 2. The <Edit ...> field in the browser dialogs doesn't work by default as the editor default path includes a newline (..\n..) and not a backslash-n (..\\n..) 3. The Set... entry in the option menu is redundent. Can't you just invoke the dialog directly? 4. Fixing the above editor setting and selecting a random prelude name opens notepad with a garbage file (notepad follows the braindead MS-DOS convention for end-of-line). If notepad isn't the prefered editor, then hugs should at least be shipped with a default that is better. 5. The browser dialogs would be so much cooler, if they weren't modal. Having to open them each time is a pain. My testing stopped here, as I was neither going to dig up a better editor, nor convert all the script files to MS-Dogs convention. Regards, Tommy PS: Sorry I can't help develop the GUI, but I don't use Windoze regulary and have no Windoze development tools (thanks God!).
