Personally I wouldn't be so quick to rule out CODE in anticipation of wdsc.

At work, I envoke code via PDM.  Works great.  When I used to work from home, I
used CPO daily.  Works great.  I excitedly installed WDSC 4.0 on my PC only to
be disappointed.  4.0 is really 1.0.  I don't have 5.0 (really 2.0) in my hands
yet so I can't comment much on it.  It took me a day of tinkering to get up to
speed on CODE to be productive, with a lot of help from Buck and the CODE
IBM'ers on the CODE400-L list.  After many months, maybe a year, of 4.0 I'm
still not productive enough to use it daily.  Partly because my PC doesn't have
enough power.

I'll try again once those 5.0 cd's come in.  But, as I do my hobby programming
at home and I run linux at home I don't see me adopting 5.0 in a hurry.  At work
I just don't have that much time to tinker.

One gripe about the help:  WDTS 5.1 had the best help.  The help with WDSC 4.0
sucks.  John Larimer posted a really great macro in Jan (I think) that helps
open help contextually but the help text itself is so basic it isn't much help
at all.

Just my .02
