iTools is a third graphics system? I thought iTools were just graphics
fluff that was an extension of object graphics. Do I have this wrong?
Is iTools the wave of the future that I should be learning instead of
all the ins and outs of object graphics? From all that I have seen of
iTools, they are pretty useless.* I'd love to have someone tell me
otherwise.

* -- 99% of what I use IDL for is automated processing so I never deal
with GUI design or clicky things.
