documentation

(caution: the opinions expressed here are those of someone who has a connection with the product) The Creator also runs on CP/M-80, TRS-80 MIII, and (ta da!) the MacIntosh. It's written in MS-BASIC, so it's really transportable. Source is available for $25 extra from TNT software. The produced code can be run through BASCOM, natch, to speed it up considerable. W&A also sells it (that's the co. I work for). The other Creator mentioned has been retitled and has nothing to do with Bruce's Creator.
