Setting up Enterprise

[George C Brackett]

Thanks!  One source has been my inclination also, Jacqueline; anytime  
I have to keep things in sync I have found I'm asking for trouble.   
Obviously when using only Studio I only had one source.  I guess that  
having the Windows IDE allows me to make tweaks for the Windows  
version while it is running in Windows, which surely makes tweaking  
easier.  It may also make me more fussy than necessary about  
formatting!  Hmm... maybe I could use behaviors to do things like set  
the font/size/margins of a field OS-specific if there were just  
something like a drawField message...

It's really hard to maintain separate source files, you're bound to  
forget to change something on the other copy. I always work with a  
single stack file, which I share across platforms. In general I do  
most of the work on my Mac, and then I open the stack on Windows  
(running on Parallels) and tweak things that need it. I keep going  
back and forth like that, checking things.

Keeping two separate copies in synch seems like double the work to me.
