Re: QCMD

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I bet it will be a 'dead heat' they both abandon QCMD the day they Die!

As for the GUI, it's loaded with new function, plenty of bugs, and as
usual is a full order of magnitude slower than the QCMD.  And as an
example, in the system value area you get to mentally map the text
assigned to the sysval in
the GUI to the actual sysval.

I'll stay with QCMD for now.
