Vampiring about with HyperNext . . . http://www.tigabyte.com/index.html
I found the 'Map Viewer' example and thought it was rather good . . . although the project is hard-coded to one map (that would have to go), and the buttons look awful . . . And, If, One wants to be really B*tchy; the code looks kinda' clunky compared with how one would achieve the same in RR/MetaCard. And, Yeah; what about the OS that will slowly but surely munch its way into Microsoft's domination? http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=205602879 http://www.news.com/8301-13580_3-9819344-39.html A RAD that doesn't work on Linux and build standalones for it is going to miss out on quite a bit soon.

However, and it is a big However; the guy has quite a few good ideas (which creeps like me are probably not above pinching and re-implementing in xTalk). Even if for no other reason than his good ideas the Tigabyte bloke needs support - and, further to that, he has been "at it" quite some time. And; it seems he's been "at it" all by himself, which has got to be fairly impressive. I don't think one should come down on Tigabyte too heavily, but see it as a gadfly that we users of RR/Metacard can use to show us areas and ideas that may be overlooked. I, also, dislike a world that is dominated by Windows; however, as a Mac and Linux enthusiast, would be worried if either of those OSes dominated in the same way; it is not healthy. It may be similarly unhealthy if RR comes to dominate the "stack-ware" field/market. Monopolies result in stagnation and smugness. I hope that Tigabyte develops into something good. sincerely, Richmond Mathewson ____________________________________________________________ A Thorn in the flesh is better than a failed Systems Development Life Cycle. ____________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ Support the World Aids Awareness campaign this month with Yahoo!
