Now that you mention it, I do remember. Hmmm, not sure if your NTX triggered my Workshop or if both our projects were triggered by the same need.

What I don;t like about either approach is the limitation of macOS X. I always tried to support Linux and MSWindows as well. Here, learning Cocoa and ObjectiveC is a huge pain ITA. Qt would be a different beast, and my old FLTK as a base GUI is quite outdated.

Either way, what do you suggest we do? Continue NTX, continue Workshop, continue both? Continue together? At least with serial port support on Einstein now, NTX would probably work with very little modification.
