This is a crucial point, I think.  IBM by definition needs broader scope
than my product.  While we have similar keyword support, WebFacing has more
than PSC400 (primarily in the area advanced editing keywords).  IBM also
needs to support more languages and browsers than I have to.

And PSC400 modifies the program source.  There's no way around that for a
third-party guy like me, and it's a deal breaker for some people.  So, as
Jim points out, there are really two different niches here, and WebFacing
and PSC400 each fit one quite nicely.
