Hi Peter

Yes and no!

1. This is one GUI (how many real ones are there - 4 - 5)
2. There is absolutly NO need to know all this to run the GUI, but you have to
know the commands for this WB-engine, and for this engine, and for this engine
and for this engine, and ... so on!

You are right that far, that of course someone has to learn something about the
programm he wants to use.
The problem is not CRAFTY as an entity for itself (4 day, now I think I now the
most important things - overall acceptable), the problem is the diversity of
wb-engines.

Bye
Ingo

Btw: Start the Shredder-Classic GUI and type "ask" once or twice. And then give
me the question! ;-)
