Yes, that's what it does - implement a GUI for common (existing) command line programs. I was thinking more along the lines of Prograph http://www.pictorius.com/ which allows the programmer to build source code by dragging and dropping various boxes on the screen, and connecting them with lines. I tried Prograph a few years ago, and decided that it just wasn't useful for any "real" programming tasks. Other people have better success with it, if you believe Pictorus' sales pitch. Anyway, there's a free trial available, but it's a 26 meg download. Also, there once was a programming language called "Blue", which operated in much the same way. Work on that seems to have been discontinued. Regards, Irv __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo. http://search.yahoo.com
