(...) Because I belong to both groups, and I'd rather use one program than two. More importantly, there is significant overlap in the functionality--all the moves, rotates, color change, etc. applies equally to modeling and authoring. The big (...) (26 years ago, 14-Nov-98, to lugnet.cad)

(...) If there is core functionality that both programs use, make that functionality into reusable components, use a common code base and build two different executables. While VB is not the ideal language to do this in, it'll do, especially if (...) (26 years ago, 15-Nov-98, to lugnet.cad)

(...) VB is a faster language if what you want is writing poorly structured, hard to maintain code. Having to go to another language is damning. The bugginess of Java does not at all compare to trying to debug a VB problem. Been there, done that, (...) (26 years ago, 16-Nov-98, to lugnet.cad)
