I am curious about NewWave from HP. Can any one with experience sharing their experience ? I am particularly interested in it as development environment for application ? /Chan

The one thing I do like about it is it makes some of Windows shortcomings more bearable, i.e. file manager and recorder. The problem is adding another layer between DOS and applications. It's difficult enough having Windows between DOS and applications, but now you'd have Windows AND NewWave. Also, I think to take advantages of some of the features you have to use applications specifically written for NewWave (i.e. editing a linked chart). The features that NewWave offers are on my wish list for the next version of Windows. Tom Laughner DOS Consultant/Analyst University of Notre Dame TLAUGHNE@IRISHVMA
