Up to a point this is true, for simple things, but with complex
things, it's the pits. Most times it is MUCH easier to go to another
language and do some kind of interface to TS. At best, a kludge or
'workaround' (copyright Omega) is needed. This is especially true with
the limited graphics in TS.

I'm not sure you'd want to use those for large real-time systems,
especially with a large data base. I sure wouldn't, at least.
