Just got in 6.5 yesterday at noon and as of today around 3 pm. we had our system converted over (3 clustered 360's), our application using the hp widget set recompiled and up and running under the new PM-like window manager. Good work guys!!! I had previously complained in this column about how my "moderate application" took too long to initialize all the widgets I was using (I think I quoted about a 5 minute delay). Well no more! The full application comes up in under one minute! --Remember, this is over 1000 "buttons", over 25 "forms", and more than 50 "cascades." My only complaint (I always gotta complaint), is that the "greyhound" and "monitor" broke. I hope new versions are on the way. Again, kudos to hp. Sorry Tom, I love my hpwm!
