But I had bad experiences with studying Windom when I started with gem - I wasn't even able to compile the simplest example from documentation... after some time I looked at it again, the example was already compilable but in application exit I've seen some strange bus error.. so I leaved it completely... CFLib is nice, very, very stable and safe (checks against NULLs, empty strings, special cases in every function) and offers some general purpose but frequently used functions for working with files, protocols etc.. So I use CFLib. But I want not to say Windom is bad, I just prefer simplier library. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- MiKRO Atari XE/XL/Mega STE/Falcon060 http://mikro.atari.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
