Hello there,


If i had Linux installed i guess i would try wxE first, but then again
because WinClass is my own creation it's made according to my own 
philosophies for how programming should be done.  There are many ideas
that come into play here, and when i program with my own Lib i feel that
i am programming in the best way that i can.  Of course one question i
can ask is how extensible is wxE, because if i want to add a 'class'
(in the same way that i can with WinClass) can i do whatever i want
or is there some limitation/ideal that will prevent that...
If there are no such limits then perhaps i could do that too.
I like my own lib a lot however, so it would take a lot of convincing
to get me to switch    I could use both though perhaps.


Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
