With all the projects being started I just wondered what would people like to see things written in. Of corse its really up to the person who gets off their butt and writes something. If you want to go out and write the best Flotran dice roller ever damm the man and full speed ahead.

I voted Python, but Java or cross-platform C/C++ would work just as well—portability is key in my mind, as is not being a web app (exceptions made here if non-web versions are already available—optimal is a web/non-web pair that can tie into each other).
We need more programs written in B. ~J |

My issues with python, I can't load it at work, so i can't use it at work. Which sucks cause my job is boring.

Flash works well for me ... I actually use the swift3d to create any applications. For example the micro runners. I still voted for php which is my web based language of choice.

My vote is for python. In general I'd say it'd be best to go with a higher level language with a good cross platform gui package and strong web programming capabilities. Perl and ruby would work equally well I think.

I voted C# because thats what i'm doing it in. But I'd also chose c or c++, or if i was going to do a web based one ASP .NET where I could well, just use C# again easily. PHP is just too much of a pain to set up now that mysql is not enabled by default for me to realy want to deal with and or test.

I voted for Other, English specifically. Maybe a little Spanish too, if I have a good translater.
Python or C/C++ works too, if I'm not being sarcastic. Excel based VB macros, anyone, anyone? |

Hrm well i'd actualy now that I think about it would prefer ancient egyptian. I think heiroglyphs would work alot better than these silly letters we have now. And VBA *shudder* can do some fun stuff with it...but its still based in VB :( |

But I am the original Slacker, and you're just an imitator.
Though I might have to hand over the title to you with how slow you are going on the Garage. I did all the data entry for it in a couple weeks and you still haven't gotten more than the ATV working. |

Whatever, the pages you are doing are mostly filled with fluff, and pictures, with a few bits of little equations.
The pages and pages and pages of data I entered what packed full of information that absolutely had to be part of the program. Other than the category headings, virtually every single character on every one of the multitude of pages for chassis and powerplants had to be entered. Can you say the same for the pages you're dealing with? :P |

See Sharp... It's clean, fast, efficient, it runs under Linux (with MONO) and Windows...
The development cycle is MUCH shorter also... And it's easy to learn. |

i can say that i have to READ every entry, because they werent nice enough to put a little block in the stats for Adjustments that i can just refer to to figure out what each thing does, if anything, mechanically.

LOL. Actually, I've never even met him. I just have fun harrassing him in the threads. He actually is working on the Garage program as I type this, so apparently my harrassments have some effect. :)
Oh come on, like it takes all that much effort to READ a few lines for each option. Get back to work you Lazy Bum. That is your new name, Lazy Bum. You aren't worthy of the glorious name Slacker. |

When you put it that way i'm not sure you're worthy of the title of slacker, especialy after all that hard work you put into that data entry in such a short period of time ;) |
