Callbox is only add on commands for Applesoft if I remember correctly
so it can only be used to create BAS programs which require
BASIC.SYSTEM.  I think Callbox only gives you access to certain IIgs
tool box functions as well.

GSoft, on the other hand, gives you access to all the tool box
functions including user tools and can create S16 programs that are
directly launchable by Finder and will quit directly back to Finder
just like a program written in C, Pascal or Assembly.  You don't need
to start up an interpreter just to run the program.  I think this is
what Mike was trying to say.
