C, Pascal, Basic, perl, fortran, python Tcl/Tk, C++, shell scripting... the list goes on. Then you also get all the tools that go with them, like make, source formatters, all the binary utils, debuggers (graphical too), IDEs, widget toolkits, libraries... everything you caould want. All for free. On top of this most of the GNU tools are standard to all UNIX platforms since they are free. This instantly makes you code more portable, as code you write will compile on many platforms on many architectures. For an old screen shot of my desktop with some devel stuff happening look here: http://members.xoom.com/_XOOM/mattpratt/screenshots/develscreen.gif I no loger run KDE, but I still love my emacs. One of my favourite tools would have to be DDD: http://www.cs.tu-bs.de/softech/ddd/ Check out some screen shots there too. === Matty . http://members.xoom.com/mattpratt/ _--_|\ mattpratt@xxxxx.xxx / \ s3099239@xxxxxxx.xxx.xxx.xx \_.--._/<--Canberra, W2K - The other millenium bug. v Australia _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
