Hi Thomas,

I use GuideLines v2.1 base pack. I think it is a wonderful development 
tool. Right now I am using it to produce as many little PM utility 
programs as I can pump out.

IMHO, the code generation and .exe are of good quality and compact size; 
as far as gui programs go.

A good positive that I see is the easy use of the built in script 
language.  This allows coding of simple to moderate snippets for object 
manipulation. Allowing embedded C/C++ code in the script code, or whole 
modules to of C code to call makes it as powerful as you need. 

Also, if you code all in the built-in language, then converting to a 
windows application is as simple as regenerating the code.

The events are good, with easy access to available events for which 
ever object your working with. Ample supply of METHODS and PROPERTIES 
for objects as well.

Regards,
Eric
