I've seen all these comments going back and forth about how great WL is =
because it is windows based and TR is not.

Tree did attempt to bring TR to windows by having another  software =
company take on the task of writing TR for Windows. Tree was not going =
to participate in the Windows program. The software company was going to =
attempt to write, maintain and market TR for windows. The news came back =
that the task would be to great  and the software company backed off. =
Probably it was not economically feasible to proceed.

Tree provides almost immediate feedback to constructive comments to his =
program. Like WL's author, Tree does have a life that includes family =
and a job, but he actively participates in his program reflector.  If a =
suggested/requested change is feasible, he implements it.

Both are excellent programs. I,  apparently along with others, would =
like to hear if our "wishes" are being considered.

To each his own.
