- There have been many versions of this in the past. It's a
- collection of procedures which let you quickly and easily
- create windows full of buttons, gadgets etc.
- @3
- What makes this one stand out from the crowd is the actual
- appearance of the buttons and gadgets. If you didn't know
- any better, you would swear blind that it was all done with
- intuition, but it isn't really. It's just a very, very good
- imitation.
- @5
- Another winning factor is the file requester which is also
- included as a procedure. It's probably the best custom file
- requester I've seen in AMOS Pro.
- @3
- And if normal intuition look-alikes aren't enough for you,
- how about giving your programs that Microsoft Windows®
- appearance. PowerProcs can handle all of this with ease.
-
- @4 The only drawback is that this is a shareware disk, and the
- programmer, Jerome Louvel, actually lives in France. The
- shareware fee is about £10 in English money!!!

-
- A very good collection of procedures, but the £10 shareware
- fee is a bit steep for something like this, when there are
- so many other PD versions to choose from that perform much
- the same task.
- @5
-
- I agree Dave. I've used them also and feel that £10 is far
- too much to pay for 'em!
-
- After all, there are so many of these around now that are, as
- you correctly said, PD. Still, you get what you pay for in
- the end and Power Procs are very professional indeed.
-
- To be honest, I don't see the programmer making much money
- out of these. Re-write the routines and he would have a hard
- time proving that the code is all his :( - AG @1End.
