Slowly denigrated (err... I mean migrated) to C?  Why not UPGRADED to
SPLash from Allegro Consultants (http://www.allegro.com) or directly to
Java?  :-)

With the current renaissance of the HP3000, the name SPLash is more
appropriate than ever (hint: think of the phoenix bird, which rose from its
own ashes).  In fact, did everyone know that you can (through a little bit
of Allegro magic) run programs written in SPLash on *both* MPE/iX and HP-UX?

Also, Allegro has the technology to use SPLash as a decent GUI for C, so
you can maintain your software in a humanly understandable form and then
just compile it into standard unreadable C, which you can then feed to a
standard C compiler :-)


Happy programming in your favorite language; just ignore my biases :-)
