Okay, Not everyone uses M$ software and refuse to support Bill's Evil Empire. That said the only SRCG worth mentioning is written in Visual Basic - why? Well over 60% of this forum users are XP users, hardly 30 % make up Mac OS X and Linux, (I use Linux and have a ibook I run OS X and Gentoo on)

This is not why Mac OS X and Linux are superior post, or even a flame Microsoft post - not everyone can/will or desire to run non-Microsoft software.

This is a call to all those little developers out there to use a language like Python or Java. They are cross platform... they allow your code to be used by EVERYONE.

I have written a little program calculator in Python. It can run on any machine that has python installed. I will post the link as soon as it is finished (it part of a suite of utilities I am writing).

I urge anyone who wants to write SR programs use something cross platform.
If you want to program and don't know how check out
Python Programming Language
It has tutorials for non-programmers and programmers alike.
Peace!
