Yes, but only because you won't give me an OS/2 version!  I refuse to use
CODE because you force me to use windows and I've not got the patience to
suffer that rubbish.

The original OS/2 version of CODE was quite good for its time but then you
moved it to windows and it became junk.  I've installed it many times and
I've taught classes with it.  All I see are problems -- it doesn't install
reliably, it doesn't connect reliably, bits of don't work (or work today but
not tomorrow).  Some things work in the CPO but not from the editor.  I see
evidence on this list that many (most) others experience the same issues.

CODE is very productive IF you get a good installation but the days of lost
productivity in getting to that stage defeats me.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
