I've installed the CSet++ 3.0 Beta a couple of days ago and with the
little experience that I've gathered I can tell you that is a visual
RAD that will generate C++/ICLUI code. But you know, I don't really
think we need that kind of stuff, I mean if you are a C++ programmer
you are a craftsman, you like smart, good and efficient code.  I've not
tested it thoroghly yet, but I'm sure that the generated program's
performance will make you look like if had programmed it in Smalltalk
and also implemented some classes in SOM (I mean the slowest turtle
that one can imagine). C ya !
