I believe what the guy is looking for is something like ProtoTyper (which is no longer around) or the kind of interface that you find in something like Visual FoxPro, FoxPro, FoxBase, etc.... That is to say - a drag and drop front piece which will generate the underlying code. MacPerl doesn't have it - you have to do everything by hand. I, personally, happen to like MacPerl's method of doing this but I have also used the other and found it to be quick handy too. I would suggest that your friend check out either Visual FoxPro or maybe RealBasic and both have rapid prototyping GUI interfaces and are probably what he is looking for. :-) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All e-mail needs to be sent to mark@cheers.jsc.nasa.gov.
