General usage would indicate that the HWR is too slow, 
diagram capability may be useful.

The SDK does not work with TurboPascal to the best of my knowledge. The
SDK documentation indicates that it requires Borland C/C++ ($395.00 at
the local Software Etc.) not the less expensive Turbo C/C++. There
is no information as to whether the SDK will work with other C/C++
combinations that support long variable names but Geoworks does
not support them at this time.
