I have heard conflicting stories about how hard it is to port between Windows and Presentation Manager. Someone told me it was no problem, the toolkit calls were all about the same, just with different names. Someone else told methe two toolkits were very different. I also heard something about a C compiler that will allow me to develop for both at the same time. (I'm planning to use uSoft 5.1 w/Codeview). Also, from a user interface point of view, does PM provide any major advantages over Windows/386? Please e-mail all facts/opinions and I will post a summary if there is sufficient interest. Thanks in Advance, Andy Lieberman Library Systems Office UC Berkeley

I urge people to POST their facts/opinions. Isn't that what this newsgroup is for? (If I'm wrong please tell me ...
