If you like Pascal as a learning language (which would make sense, as that's what the language was designed for), then what about Object Pascal for OO? Apparently, Object Pascal has spread beyond Delphi and there are now free compilers for it available, so you wouldn't be consigning yourself to vendor lock-in. -- Dave Sherohman NomadNet, Inc. http://nomadnetinc.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
