Dear monks,

Recently, I have installed Prima which comes with a visual gui builder, allowing you to create a gui without having to know how to write one manually. How do you feel about such tools? Keep in mind that use of such tools embodies both laziness and impatience in the programmer.

I await your responses. 


our @item = reverse (114, 101, 107, 99, 97, 104, 32, 108, 
114, 101, 80, 32, 114, 101, 104, 116, 111, 110, 97, 32, 116, 115, 117,
+ 74); local $my = reverse ")meti@\ ,rhc (pam tnirp";eval $my;
