Yes, it was very fast because of that. You had pull down windows, pop
up dialog boxes, and mouse or keyboard support. Sadly, the only
released programs to ever use it were Towel (a GREAT OS-9 disk utility,
heh) on the CoCo and MM/1, and MegaBanners (banner program on the
MM/1).
I have learned how to program since I designed EthaWin, and that's the
first thing I'd be rewriting when I get a CoCo or emulator going. If
someone can teach me how to use MESS on the Mac (I can never figure out
how to escape -- need a cheat code -- and how to set up my hard drive,
etc.) I may start working on that.
