we've found, after developing in ne since 1.0beta, that the window painter's environment is not sufficient in some cases. while it suffices to paint your window... it does a very poor job of providing a sufficient editing environment to write the event handlers and create/maintain other project files. we've come up with a strategy (pros and cons) to use the window painter as little as possible. in my opinion this doesn't make us serious developers, just intelligent. ne3 is a little nicer as it comes bundled with codewright and the whole environment is more integrated, but it's still cumbersome to always get in the window painter and then locate the event handler and bounce in and out of codewright. oh well, they tried. -jason
