Maybe I'm some sort of language freak, but something in me
doubts that "WorldClass" sorts of libraries don't really
get used that much.
 
The main reason I don't use these types of libraries is because
I find they don't really save me any time or effort.  This may
be due to a personal problem; I dunno.  By the time I've
decided what sort of wiz-bang object and procedures I need 
coded up, I either have an idea on how to code it, or I don't.
If I do have an idea, I'll just code it; if I don't, I find
it's easier to delve into the underlying structures and
kludge something together than search through someone else's
kludges, etc etc.
 
Is this just me?  Are there people out there who have found
useful libraries, particularly for TADS?  What's the
difference between me and them?
