Hi Adam,

AJ>I like TADS a little better; it's more C++ish and I like the way
AJ>inheritance makes defining default behaviors very easy.
I may have to get back to you about "inheritance defining default
behaviours" in a little while.

AJ>Inform feels more like "real programming".
I wonder, could you expand just a bit on this?  This is the kind of  
distinction I was looking for in a comparison between the two.

How easy/difficult did you find it to go from one to the other?
Which did you start with?  Why did you change, or do you use one or
the other depending on what you want to write?

AJ>Either one will do you fine.
Probably, but I'm a bit anal.

AJ>Adam
Thanks a lot for your time.

Sandra
