\section{Introduction}

\frame{
\frametitle{Why use that old program?}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> Basic EPM already installed on most systems
\item<2-> Not many other options yet (for OS/2)
\item<3-> Easily scriptable and highly configurable
\item<4-> Huge set of E macros available
\item<5-> High quality of NEPMD macros
\item<6-> Usability for beginners and programmers
\item<7-> Easy macro language
\item<8-> Many search options
\item<9-> Highly configurable syntax expansion
\end{itemize}
}

\frame{
\frametitle{Basic EPM limitations}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> No folding
\item<2-> Simplier highlighting
\item<3-> Due to the lack of C sources, some bugs will never be fixed.
\end{itemize}
}

\frame{
\frametitle{Programming interfaces}
\begin{itemize}
\item<1-> E macro language (feels like REXX, sources available)
\item<2-> EPM-REXX
\item<3-> C via E Toolkit functions
\item<4-> EPM.EXE is just a frame for ETK functions and E macros
\item<5-> No C sources available: sometimes workarounds using E lead to "slow fixes".
\end{itemize}
}
